Teen banned from US after drunken email to Obama
September 14, 2010 - 12:12PM
A British teen has been banned from the US for life after a drunken moment of rage.
Luke Angel, 17, admits he sent US President Barrack Obama an abusive email in which he called Mr Obama "a prick".
Luke told the Daily Mail the incident happened after he had too many drinks before sitting down to watch a TV program about the September 11 attacks in 2001. He claims he was so incensed by what he saw that he sent the email to the White House.
The Daily Mail reported that the FBI intercepted the message and contacted British police.
Officers then paid Luke a visit, informing him that he was now banned from the US for life.
"I don't remember exactly what I wrote as I was drunk, but I think I called Barack Obama a prick. It was silly - the sort of thing you do when you're a teenager and have had a few."I don't really care. My parents aren't very happy about it," Luke said.
"The police who came round took my picture and told me I was banned from America forever."
Bedfordshire Police said the teen was banned by the US because he sent "an email to the White House full of abusive and threatening language".
Luke faces no criminal charges.
