I have no idea what you think you're trying to say with the part in
blue, but the lack of an arrest shows that the Secret Service -- which takes threats against the President very seriously -- does not share your hyper-inflated view that the "severed head" stunt was either a threat to kill the President, or a call for his assassination.

Hmm. So, what you're saying is that in high school and college you were repeatedly out-argued by people who also pointed out your faulty logic. That explains a lot.
