‘Dead men can’t write s--t laws’: Feds say Queens Proud Boy wannabe made online threats, had 1,000 rounds of ammo, knives, swords, firearms
NY Daily News ^ | January 13, 2021 | Noah Goldberg, Graham Rayman & Larry McShane

A heavily armed Proud Boys wannabe from Queens stood back and stood by Wednesday as Brooklyn federal prosecutors accused him of leveling death threats against Georgia Sen.-elect Raphael Warnock and other politicians.

Eduard Florea, 40, watched via video feed as prosecutors described the discovery of his hateful and murderous posts on the far-right Parler app, along with a raid on his home, where authorities seized about 1,000 rounds of rifle ammunition, 24 shotgun shells, 75 combat knives, two hatchets and two swords.

“Dead men can’t write s--t laws,” read one of Florea’s Jan. 6 posts in the online forum. Authorities said the menacing remark referenced Warnock, a Black Democrat elected in Georgia’s Jan. 5 runoff election.

The post was written from the defendant’s Middle Village home on the same day as last week’s U.S. Capitol riot, officials said.

One day earlier, Florea — under the screen name “LoneWolfWar” — cast a wider net with another post referencing lawmakers in general: “I catch one of you f-----s in D.C. tomorrow, I’m definitely slicing a throat.”

I catch one of you f-——s in D.C. tomorrow, I’m definitely slicing a throat.”

All the other fluff having been discarded, this seems to be the bone of contention, legally.

Fair enough. But everything else in the article is just there for prejudice.

Sounds like the back corner of my armory, where I never look...

What kind of sissy has only 1,000 rounds of rifle ammunition?

Membership in the Proud Boys is legal. Like BLM, ANTIFA, KKK, etc.

Yes! The marxtards just have to insinuate and slime because they have no real facts to pass along. They know the words “Proud Boys” sends their 30 readers into spasms of hate.

Did he use any of them to commit a crime?

I guess that’s a pretty tough question for some folks to
figure out, and gain meaning from.

Not expecting it here.

Pffftttt.....

A thousand rounds of ammo is barely enough for range time.

They make it sound like a lot.

If everyone reading this post doesn’t have at least that much ammo at home, you’re pathetic!

Heavily armed? Bwaaaaaahahahahahahahaaaaa

OK, I'll admit it, I have no swords. My kukri is technically a knife.

The last time I only had 24 shotgun shells was when I bought my first box of shotgun shells. Except that they come in boxes of 25. And I think I bought about four boxes. At WalMart. In the '80s.

OK, the last time I had fewer than 24 shotgun shells was before I ever bought any shotgun shells. lol

In these parts, hardly worth a trip to WalMart... '-)
