38 yr old Christopher Michael McGowan of Roanoke, VA was just arrested for threatening to kill GOP VA Rep Bob Goodlatte for being an NRA supporter.
He tweeted "You better get on those gun laws. I am buying one intended for you in 3 days. Can you legally stop me?" By my count, this is around the 45th liberal arrested since last May for threatening to kill, or assaulting, a GOP lawmaker. Real number is likely higher.
“Can you legally stop me?”
Yes
Good, the POS.
Liberalism confirms its status as a mental illness daily.
>> In mid-December, a message from one of the accounts said: “Dear, any law enforcement agency. I am a veteran Army officer and am fully qualified and capable to kill. Should Trump fire Mueller illegally and @BobGoodlatte6 fail to impeach him I will consider Bob an enemy combatant and arrest him. If he resist I will kill him.”
Goodlatte’s office called police. Botetourt County sheriff’s deputies visited McGowan at home. “McGowan stated that he had become intoxicated and sent the tweets hoping to get someone’s attention over his concerns about the current status of our country,” according to court papers. He also said he didn’t own firearms or intend to hurt anyone, court papers said.

These people need to be taken seriously. They are derranged enough to carry out their threats.
There are some seriously far-left weirdos in Roanoke, Virginia.
Darn shame. There's a terrific train museum in Roanoke.
Democrats should not be allowed to own guns.
It is a great museum. You can most likely visit it without encountering too many leftist ass-hats. They dont tend to be very interested in history.
Little Piglet could almost be accused of the same.
When are all these “famous” people going to be arrested for making threats against the president?
That's correct. My state has CC. Thank God.

People want to put the left back in power because we have Republicans that don’t agree 100% with us? The pattern of leftist violence continues, and we continue to be a fractured base.
No, the Republicans haven’t done 100% of what the base wanted. That is not a reason to hand over committee chairmanships to Democrats who can stifle our voices in Congress and then impeach and remove the president who is fighting for America and us from office. It is handing the president over to representatives who just want to get in power so impeachment can happen. Some of the Republicans are listening to us. The Democrats never listen to us.
Freepers, please read about what has happened in socialist countries. We are not far from we ourselves being victims of leftist violence. It is unwise to trash our majorities because we look at small issues instead of the big picture.
How come the Historian Association is so anti-Trump?
