I can’t get past ‘we hold no animosity’…
….but I guess it’s self preservation
Yet not a single Antifa raid on people who threatened President Trump.
Strange...
I’m surprised that Poopy Pants didn’t have the FBI use an F15 or a small nuke.
Dumb, dumb, dumb. One thing you do not do is to threaten, not even cryptically, the life of anyone on social media, or a forum such as FR, or anyplace that is easily monitored. PERIOD.
I recall folks threatening obama’s life a few years back. That was wrong for two reasons. First it could get you into prison or killed. Second if anyone actually did whack obama it would send the nation into a civil war ASAP. The same goes for Biden or Trump.
I like Trump’s idea, which is to charge and imprison Biden once elected.
Message sent by biden’s DOJ.
There you have the MAGA problem right there. A volunteer group buildign a ramp for free when some gubmint contractor could have made a killing doing that at taxpayer expense.
The guy was a dummy for posting that, but it shouldn’t have been a death sentence.
A social media post isn’t a threat. It is, by it’s public nature, an expression of general discontent. The “threats” made by Madonna and many other leftists against Trump are such examples.
A legitimate threat is generally made specifically, directed toward that person, by mail, phone message, or other private means.
I hope many across the political spectrum take the time to read this family’s statement.
Also noticed on nbc this morning a carefully choreographed dance around the question of who shot first. Apparently we don’t know, or are not being told. My money is on the FIB’s being trigger happy; de-escalation takes time and raises media attention. Plus with poopy pants in town it would draw attention from his big campaign event (what was the count on that - 20 people? 50?).
Being armed is a protected right. FBI are murderers.
Making threats against the president is illegal, that is a fact, and those making threats should be investigated, if found to be mentally ill they should be confined to a facility, if not, they should be imprisoned.
There have been thousands of people arrested over the decades for threatening every president, I can’t think of a single one that was killed by an FBI SWAT team. All previous cases of threatening the president have been handled quietly, with most of the people being sent to a psychiatric facility, and some have been imprisoned.
I have heard that the FBI had watched him for the last few months, did they not notice that he was 75 years old, 5’4” tall, weight of 300 lbs., and using a cane? Wouldn’t you think that they could have arrested him on his way to the grocery store or church? They didn’t need to batter down his front door, throw in flash bangs, and shoot the man.
This looks more like an operation meant to send a message that the Biden regime is willing and able to kill whomever they wish.
The reliance by the FBI on using SWAT teams to go after political figures seems to have started with Roger Stone. Now it has escalated to actually killing someone. Maybe someone who has looked into the use of SWAT by the FBI has better information.
Beware. In the Former USA either lowlife street scum or the Stasi can take your life whenever they feel like it.
FBI raids on Americans should be “unconstitutional.” That guy was a walking heart attack. He couldn’t hold up a gun long enough to shoot anybody. Somebody overreacted.
The FBI has proven many times in the past that they do not have the training and experience to conduct raids. This would have turned out completely differently if the local PD approached him first.
Instead of planning and executing a heavily armed dawn “raid”, rushing into his house before he can think clearly, and predictably gunning him down, the FBI could have CALLED him, on like a PHONE, and asked discussed his intentions. Maybe asked gim to come in for an interview. Worst he could have done was refuse to cooperate. But they chose the dangerous, violent option.
FBI needs to explain WHY. FBI needs to disclose what they anticipated his reaction would be.
Some clown decided his cane looked like a rifle......
Was it an execution like Ashley Babbitt?
We don’t know all the details but we do know he made threatening comments that are not protected by the first amendment. Substitute your name for Biden’s in his threats and ask if you still think what he said is ok.
