OBAMA TO HISPANICS: FORK YOU! (HISPANICS' SILVERWARE AT OBAMA SPEECH CONFISCATED!) REASONABLE OR OVER THE TOP?
LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. --Does a fork or dinner knife pose an unacceptable danger to President Barack Obama?
One wouldn’t think so, given the hundreds of lunches and dinners he’s attended ranging from state dinners to political fundraisers to run-of-the-mill stops on the rubber-chicken circuit.
However, at one such lunch Friday afternoon, guests heard an unusual announcement that they needed to hand over their silverware for security reasons.
“It’s very important that you use your utensils as soon as possible,” National Association of Latino Elected and Appointed Officials board member Raquel Regalado told about 1000 delegates at the group’s annual conference.

It's over the top to fear Hispanics with utensils...+22What a sad commentary on our times.
If this was a banana republic I could understand a dictator worried about an attack from the subjugated peasants . . . wait, I think I understand the confiscation of forks . . .
they too closely resemble pitch forks and the oppressed peasants might be tempted to rise up and . . .





















But if the government was truly interested in stopping the cartels, they would get them where they hide and they completely ignore the main distribution line from Texas to Atlanta.
The remainder are either socialist on a global scale or committed rope walkers to try to balance quasi-conservatism with socialist desires for "giving" people what they now depend on, while trying to make the constitutionalists not feel like they are being screwed.
So, he wants their votes but does NOT trust their intentions?
If they still support him after this, they are morally bankrupt and stupid to boot.
WE could have a Drive By Forking! Course they were in a big Forking Room, but there could have been a Walk Up Forking!
This is Forking Crazy!
What a paranoid drama queen.
This has to be one of your absolute best, maggot! ROFLMAO still. Security reasons! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Still, there are a wide variety of breakfasts, lunches and dinners the president attends where diners still have the full complement of silverware as Obama speaks.
Milien declined to comment on the discrepancy. However, it’s known that the Secret Service adjusts security depending on the size of the crowd and how much officials know about who’s in attendance. At some events, guests must pass through magnetometers. At others, they don’t."
