SUGAR LAND — In case their Plantation Bend neighbors had any questions about how Doug and Wendy McKain feel about Barack Obama, the bumper sticker on their pickup could be a clue.

But when Chynethia Gragg spotted the sticker — depicting someone urinating on the name "Obama" — Sugar Land police say, she stopped to express her disapproval, and that's when things got ugly.

Gragg, 35, has been charged with making a terroristic threat after confronting the McKains, telling them the sticker was racist, police said.



"Mr. McKain said Ms. Gragg said she (would) get someone to take care of him later," the report said.

Gragg was issued a trespass warning and then arrested on the threat charge, a misdemeanor. She was released Wednesday from the Fort Bend County Jail on $500 bond.


Calvin, from the cartoon strip Calvin and Hobbes pisses on EVERYTHING nowadays.

Never mind Obama, just imagine someone follows you home and starts threatening you over ANY bumper sticker. What would you do?

Ms. Gragg is extremely lucky she didn't run into a Joe Horn type and blow her away is accordance with Texas law.

Obama is not the messiah, and criticism of him is not racist.

Absolutely.

One of the things that makes this country so great is the freedom to support who you want and oppose who you want.

Who cares if you disagree with someones bumper sticker? Just move on and forget about it.

There are always those who will have different views and opinions than you.

Learn to embrace them, not threaten them.

As have I. (although we don't usually disagree)

It's an interesting topic to debate....even without the politics.
