This reprehensible statement, whether intended as a threat or not can not and should not be excused. Trump has not only endangered Clinton (which a sizable portion of sick individuals in his flock will applaud), but he has endangered the men and woman of the US Secret Service charged with guarding her. These brave individuals have pledged their lives to protect their charges. They don't care about that person's politics, just doing their duty. Their job is hard enough and dangerous enough without someone enflaming the unstable of society.
This is not a lowly representative or senatorial candidate blathering idiocy, Trump is running for what is arguably the most powerful position in the world. Nations will listen too and react to what that person says. A presidential candidate must be aware of and held accountable for the words they choose to use. Donald Trump chose to use the words he did, they can not be taken back or ignored - he owns them.
I just hope and pray that no one has to pay the price for them.
