No thread about the arrest of an armed and crazy Dem who was going to kill supreme court justice Brett Kavanaugh and his family?

Why am I not surprised.

wait, who put in the work to catch him?

the...cops?!

now THAT is a story!

Nah. Heard he was apprehend by a homeowner and some "D1" soccer players.

First I have heard of this. If convicted, dood needs to go away for a very long time.

Attorney General Merrick Garland said Wednesday that “threats of violence and actual violence against” Supreme Court justices “strike at the heart of our democracy and we will do everything we can to prevent them and to hold people who do them accountable.”

“This kind of behavior is obviously behavior that we will not tolerate,” Garland told reporters. “Threats of violence and actual violence against the justices of course strike at the heart of our democracy and we will do everything we can to prevent them and to hold people who do them accountable.”

There ya go illy.

I knew the serve and protect thread would lead to a 20ish page meltdown by illy but I didn't see it spanning multiple threads. What's the over/under on number of threads he will start before serve and protect reaches 20 pages?

Why don't you just make the thread instead of bitching about it?

Glad to hear that he was arrested before he hurt anyone. Sounds like the laws and monitoring in place for such a scenario are working as designed.

How do you know when the civil war has started? My local leaders and county health dept personnel seemed to all have regular death threats during the height of covid. I recognize that this recent arrest had a person with means near his target, but since we've become desensitized to the real thing and the talking heads and some leaders tell us this is what we should be doing (fight to the death with guns because we are afraid that our way of life is ending), it seems a reasonable expectation that this stuff will occur regularly. If we normalize it, we don't get to call it deranged.

did i miss the thread about violent pubes?

Please forgive me. I heard (actually read) about Nicholas John Roske but nowhere did I see any mention of his political affiliation.
Can/will you please provide the source?

As far as people who are targeted, as much as I truly dislike saying this, if you are a Supreme Court Justice in the current state/climate of this country, you should probably expect to have credible death threats against you. Sure it's an admirable thing to want to serve on the "high court" but I have to question the sanity of those who do and why they are willing to risk not only their own but their family member's well being.

Multiple articles indicate Roske has admitted his plan to kill Kavanaugh was politically motivated.

Schumer said, "I want to tell you, [Justice] Gorsuch, I want to tell you, [Justice] Kavanaugh: You have released the whirlwind, and you will pay the price, You won’t know what hit you if you go forward with these..."

Taking a page out of Trump's playbook?

Multiple articles indicate Roske has admitted his plan to kill Kavanaugh was politically motivated.

"Roske indicated that he believed the Justice that he intended to kill would side with Second Amendment decisions that would loosen gun control laws," according to the affidavit.

In your mind that translates to he's 100% no doubt without question a Dem?
I know people who are Pubs and would be against the loosening of gun control laws.

If you were actually interested in discussing it, you would have just posted a link to the story and begun discussing it. But you're just interested in trolling and arguing.

As I said before, aspirin has side effects, cyanide has side effects. Wonder what Illy thinks about Jan6, compared one guy near Kavanaugh’s house.

Both sides do it

yknow what I hate most about the last decade?

Everyone is on a side now, regardless of reality.

Every democrat i know says all Republicans are fucktard idiots....every republican i know says all democrats are liberal pos fuctards.

There are no real issues being discussed, no progress, no ears on. Its gang affiliation. My side or devil. Its fucking retarded, all of it. The enemy isn't among us, its the string pullers and we are all positioned intentionally.

Do we need to do anything? I mean, shortly after it happened Senate minority leader Mitch McConnell demanded that the House act within the next TWO DAYS on Senate-passed legislation to protect SCOTUS justices and their families. "Stop fiddling around," he said.
It's not like the mass killings with AR-15s for which McConnell has been in the Senate all 23 YEARS since Columbine and has done NOTHING to protect our children, teachers, and schools.

I don't think that all Republicans are fucktard idiots at all. I know plenty of Republicans who are perfectly normal people whom I get along with quite well. I am surrounded by Republicans where I live. The only ones who I think are fucktard idiots are the ones that prove that they are.

We have dozens of threads where discussions are at least attempted. Obviously a few morons here find it amusing to poop in the pool and watch the chaos that ensues but people work around it if they choose to.
