A man accused of plotting to attack the U.S. Capitol called a television station from jail and said if he hadnt been arrested, he would have gone to Washington and shot President Barack Obama in the head.
WXIX-TV in Cincinnati said Christopher Lee Cornell called it from the Kentucky jail where hes being held, confessed to being a supporter of the Islamic State group and said he planned to kill government officials in retaliation for U.S. strikes on the militant organization. [
]
Cornell, asked by the interviewer what he would have done had he not been arrested in January, said he would have taken one of his guns, I would have put it to Obamas head, I would have pulled the trigger; then I would unleash more bullets on the Senate and House of Representative members, and I would have attacked the Israeli embassy and various other buildings.

Good, good. We’ve been waiting for regime change around here for a while.
Unfortunately, he lost me at ‘attack the Israeli assembly.’

He’s a supporter of the Islamic State so then he certainly wouldn’t have anything to do with islam. Well that’s what Obama is trying to tell us.

The article says....”Cornell was arrested outside a gun shop near his home on Jan. 14 ‘AFTER’ the FBI said he bought two M-15 assault weapons and 600 rounds of ammunition.”...
Makes ya wonder how many weapons the “others” have in their arsenals here in the States they haven’t caught.

Besides, this fellow did not say or imply that he would have left Biden alive.
