He wouldn't hurt a soul. Also, doesn't believe people not like him even have souls.

[–] Got_Bent@lemmy.world 19 points 2 years ago

Well, he's certainly not gonna hurt any flies now.

Terrible cosplay. The Knights Who Say Ni never used firearms.

Common misconception. Those are the Knights Who Say Ni. This guy belongs to the Knights who add a few letters to the end of that.

This is a weak argument. He owns a gun and a ghille suit, must be a psychopath?

If you don't know the context, this is a social media post from the guy in Utah who made assassination threats against Biden. Owning a gun and a ghillie suit doesn't make you a psychopath. But threatening to murder people sure does.

So the picture they chose is irrelevant?

People can be kind and courteous on the surface but vicious in their private life.

[–] CommanderM2192@lemmy.world 14 points 2 years ago

Hardly irrelevant. He made threats specifically involving these items.

I HEAR BIDEN IS COMING TO UTAH. DIGGING OUT MY OLDGHILLESUIT AND CLEANING THE DUST OFF THE M24 SNIPER RIFLE.WELCOM, BUFFOON-IN-CHIEF!

You can find it on page 36 of the official report. https://www.sltrib.com/news/2023/08/09/threats-against-president-read/

You know you've lost the plot when you look at a meme and see it as a fucking argument.

He needs more ghillie suits.
