You can also search on "riot Obama". Oh, so many threats! LOL!

That said, threats against Obama, Romney, the Old Man in the Sea are also pretty common on social media. Just copy it to @secretservice and they take care of it
I read that several of the threats were from people that had been on Twitter for years and had a couple of thousand posts.

I would be suspect of any posts that were from brand new people. But if the posts are from people with a long history then there would be no reason to think they're fake.
