WASHINGTON COUNTY, PA. — Police on Tuesday arrested a man accused of threatening to shoot up a Washington County polling place as voters cast their ballots for the midterm elections.

Christopher Queen allegedly arrived at the South Franklin Fire Hall just before 9 a.m. and told workers he was promised a gun and money if he voted “straight party,” WPXI reported.

Poll workers said he became angry when they told him he wasn’t registered to vote and allegedly threatened to come back shooting.

Authorities charged Queen with making terroristic threats, a felony.

Now that’s a mug shot.

Looks OK to me.

[LibWhacker]

Can’t you tell? He was just joking.

[TianaHighrider]

Words fail me. But I did bust out laughing at that mug.

[mistfree]

Is he related to Occasional-Cortez?
(spelling is deliberate)

[VietVet]

Is this for real? Between the alleged story and the purported ‘mug shot’, everything looks and sounds crazy.

It is getting too hard to tell real from satire, anymore.

[Trod Upon]

It’s almost as though they asked him for his best Hillary Clinton impersonation.

"Your crazy eyes... they tell on you..."

Perfect. With all kinds of memeable space, too.

This dude would make a good husband for Occasional-Kotex.

Uh-oh. From a local source (kind of):

Voter registration records list a Christopher Queen with a birth date of Oct. 8, 1970, as a Republican registered at an address on Route 66 near Kane. Court records for the charges filed Tuesday by state police match voter registration data.
