And it is against the law as per 18 U.S. Code § 871 to boot.
And while other administrations may simply pay you a visit ahead of time and strongly recommend you stay at home while POTUS is in the area, other politicos will have no problems creating a deadly force confrontation even if you are a fat 75-year-old man.
Time to go dark yall. Don’t comment on any post about politics… none.
Don’t make death threats. Should have been a rule all along.
First question was: “What, exactly, was posted that constituted the threat?” The article provided the posting, and yes, sounds like a conversation is warranted.
.
Next thought is “What made the FBI take this/these posting seriously enough to warrant a raid?
That bit I am missing. Not covered in linked article, so cannot express an opinion on whether this was justified.
.
Final thoughts.
1. If you are publicly posting things that like that, you are stupid. Either you are too stupid to carry it out, bragging, trying to get street cred, or possibly serious. And, yes, you deserve a visit from the local authorities.
2. Is a raid warranted? No. Nope. Do not see it. Perhaps there is something, but I am not seeing it. Again, a visit by the police/FBI/Secret service, yep, that is needed. Breaking in and killing the man? Nope, not unless there is something not reported.
And, finally;
3. Would a different Presidential administration have taken the same action?
Shouldn’t be a death sentence, though.
