A conservative activist best known as a crusader against violent video games is lobbying the Cuyahoga County (Ohio) prosecutor’s office to consider a criminal menacing charge against Donald Trump surrogate Roger Stone after he threatened to publicize the hotel room numbers of Republican National Convention delegates who vote for presidential candidates other than Trump.

Jack Thompson, who has appeared on “60 Minutes” touting a connection between real-world violence and games like “Grand Theft Auto,” sent a letter on Thursday to prosecutor Timothy J. McGinty, contending that Stone might have violated Ohio laws against menacing and aggravated menacing. The GOP convention will be held in Cleveland in July.

Could Boston Globes be charged for menacing President Trump? They’re legitimizing a riot

Stone has had nothing to do with the 700+ truckers who will be a much bigger menace. Just saying.

I suppose he could be brought before a grand jury.

As they say, you can indict a ham sandwich.

Not Hillary, though. You can’t indict her. Everyone knows that. But Roger Stone? Sure. You could send him away for, like, 5 years. Just because. I mean: you don’t even need a reason.

Roger Stone is CLEARLY engaged in intimidation. Whether it rises to a criminal level, I don’t know.

Could Karl Rove be charged with theft? This is getting ready to explode. What went on in Colorado was Stalinist tyranny. We will not stand for this. I assure you.

He would probably have to actually menace them. So it will have to wait until he has done something.

He has the right to talk.

The intention is to give their Hotel Information to Illegal Mexicans and poor Islamic Refugees.

Why would anyone consider that a menace?

Don’t know the legal implications, if any, but it was a bad move on Stone’s part. Still, the voters in every state have a right to know how every delegate to the national conventions vote, on every ballot.

I doubt delegate votes at a convention are recorded beyond the total for a state delegation. But they should be recorded, and the delegates should be accountable to the voters for how they voted.

“a criminal menacing charge against Donald Trump surrogate Roger Stone after he threatened to publicize the hotel room numbers of Republican National Convention delegates who vote for presidential candidates other than Trump.”

A tactic favored by union thugs, BLM and ISIS. Way to go Roger, I didn’t think you could go lower but you sure proved me wrong.

Ah....our good ole girl Michelle.

Probably doesn't want to go out with that cast on her arm where Corey really, really grabbed her really, really hard as he really, really dragged her down onto the floor.

Fox kicked her out of her apartment.

She's a street walker now. Poor girl. So sad.
