Sounds like (purely speculation, since the details aren't available) he pulled a gun on or otherwise threatened the agents coming to arrest him, based on his other behavior. Told them to come back with a warrant, they did so, and he took issue?

Either way, posting on the internet about assassinating government officials, regardless of whether it's serious or not, was probably not the smartest opening move.

That won't stop the far right from turning him into a martyr

[-] DarkGamer@kbin.social 35 points 1 year ago

They sure are big on traitors and hostile to the rule of law lately.

The right used to at least pretend to be into law and order.

[-] Zorque@kbin.social 16 points 1 year ago

They still pretend, they just also pretend that the rule of law is different than what it is.

You know how many far-righters have "back the blue" and thin blue line bumper stickers?

[-] CmdrShepard@lemmy.one 6 points 1 year ago

Yes the same guys who rant about government tyranny yet defend police (government employees/enforcers) at every opportunity love to also rant about the rule of law unless those rules are applied to them or their current flavor of the week messiah.

[-] PowerCrazy@lemmy.ml -3 points 1 year ago

And yet here were are in a thread about the state murdering someone over words and liberals are falling over themselves to "back the blue" hardest.

[-] PunnyName@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

They still are.

"Law and order" is a racist dog whistle.

[-] abraxas@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 year ago

They've always backed conservative cops enforcing conservative laws against "other people" but letting conservatives off with a warning.

[-] Dubious_Fart@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 year ago

They were never into law and order.

They were just into law beating and brutalizing black and poor people.

[-] stephen01king@lemmy.zip 3 points 1 year ago

He never said they were. He said they pretended to.

[-] Dubious_Fart@lemmy.ml 20 points 1 year ago

They turned a dumb cunt that jumped over a barricade to rush a bunch of men with guns into a martyr.

They'll turn this guy into The Jesus to Trumps God.

[-] AOCapitulator@hexbear.net 3 points 1 year ago

What word did you try and use there?

[-] Starlet@hexbear.net 3 points 1 year ago

it was cu nt, it's only censored on hexbear

[-] eskimofry@lemmy.ml 5 points 1 year ago

What you mean that won't STOP them? That actually STARTs them again!

[-] athos77@kbin.social 4 points 1 year ago

Or from producing more of them.

[-] HooPhuckenKarez@kbin.social 9 points 1 year ago

He must've forgotten to add "...in Minecraft.".

[-] TransplantedSconie@lemm.ee 7 points 1 year ago

He was posting over and over on how he'd kill the prez, the veep, and Alvin Bragg for months. The one that finally did him in was talking about sniping Diamond Joe. They paid him a visit, and he got squirrelly on 'em.

[-] mosiacmango@lemm.ee 29 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Thats just the official story. What actually happened was that dark biden's Cyber-Brain picked up the threat, so he used his lazer vision while at a rally in New Mexico to vaporize him.

The media is totally censoring the thousand mile long lazer beam the president shot out of his eyes. They have the footage, but they are too afraid to tell the truth, because then the Clinton Mutant Teenage Turtles will kill them.

Read all about it on that guys truth social page.

“Opening” is quite an interesting word in this context
