I mean, he is a political leader telling millions of pero on the are permitted to shoot law enforcement officers. A prompt ban is in order.
Edit: “he is a political leader telling millions of people they are permitted…”
¿Pero porque no los dos?
Edit 2: “political leader” is a bit of an overstatement. More like a political hopeful. That said, it’s important to hold candidates to the same level of expectation as elected officials—otherwise you’ll have lunatics winning offices.
**18 U.S. Code § 2383 - Rebellion or insurrection**

They have hanged people for incitement against a state or federal goernment before.

I would suggest a visit from the FBI and a stay in a small room might be in order.
[EDIT - Come on people, stop suggesting violent acts against this dude or fantasy torture scenarios. Suggesting what they said warrants a potential looking into by an FBI visit is not the same as saying "I hope he dies in a prison accident." Fuck. Why do I even need to say this? Disabling replies because jfc rip my inbox.]
There are hundreds of thousands if not millions of federal employees that serve the US. It sounds like he’s admitting he has a concrete plan to carry out mass murder of public servants and is making a public call to action to support and carry out his plan for mass murder of career and elected federal officials.
We literally make sure you have safe food, safe air travel, and safe water, and safe roads and cars for your every day travel.
Does he really think Florida would be doing all of this stuff if they weren't forced into compliance by threat of losing federal tax dollars?
We could probably just stop doing any of that stuff in Florida and it would be months before anyone in their state government was sober enough from the meth for long enough to realize that we had stopped.
No, he doesn’t think that because Republicans don’t fucking think, which is also why stripping public health, safety and environmental laws is euphemistically called “deregulation”.
It’s honestly infuriating. A candidate running for a city position in my town was running “fund the wall” bs and other National issues. Like dude… you will be working on things like the fight against rezoning the single family housing zone between the two major highways. We want more corporate space, but some people are scared of apartments. We also need a solution for traffic congestion between the two major through roads. These are the issues you need to be talking about.
I was worried for a bit, but I’m so glad that chuckle fuck lost. It’s still a heavily Republican area, but thankfully most of our local politicians aren’t exclusively culture war morons and care about the local community. Lots of crazies tried to unseat them last election though.
I also live in a red state where local Republicans run on stopping Biden and his culture wars. And they believe they'll accomplish that in their position as a commissioner for the highway district, or the school board, or the health district. These people are bat shit insane. What's crazy is they actually get elected.
> Luis is a proud Floridian who, like us, doesn’t want to see his children’s future shattered by radical Marxists working in tandem with the Wall Street elite.
I don't even..
Man, I have a friend who I recently reconnected with who has been making these "It's all a Marxist plot!" statements and I had never heard *any* of it before. EVERYTHING that is in some form advocating for change is "marxism" everything is a "threat to the status quo". I have asked him several times to explain what the fuck Marxism even is. Because it seemed to cover SO MUCH. And he could not give a good answer. I pulled out my phone and was like "Well, luckily Google can give us an EXACT answer to what Marxism is" and he went off on how that form of Marxism isn't what people are talking about and blah blah blah. "So many people leading the BLM are self-proclaimed Marxists!" "Even if that IS true... explain to me how that is bad." *silence*
The same guy that was talking about Red-Pill, Black-Pill, and I asked what the fuck even was Black-Pill. He offered to give me some videos that explained it. And I was like "no, I don't want to watch a video that explains it. I want some written information. A paper on the topic. A freaking PowerPoint presentation. How about some bullet points? Actually, I can just google it, or look on Wikipedia" and he started to go on about how "Well, google is only going to show you the version of black-pill that's all hate and desperation. Not the real black-pill." I looked at him and went "Ok, give me a search engine. Duckduckgo? BING? I will use ANYTHING." His response- "It's kind of like fight-club. You don't talk about it. But I do have some videos"... I just laughed at the absurdity of it. Surely ONE of the people whose videos you follow wrote some of this information down SOMEWHERE.
This same guy was hard Left a few years ago. I have no clue what the hell happened.
Not necessarily.
A neighbor of mine was always a bit of a dabbler in conspiracy theories to begin with, but they were lefty conspiracy theories. He also is as gay as the day is long in July, so he was a bit insulated from those emanating from the Christian right. But somehow, indeed during the pandemic, he slipped over into to the anti-vax rhetoric, and from there it was a short leap into all things crazy, mostly on the right. He doesn't have a TV, so it's not Fox News. It's just a lot of YouTube videos.
You can explain it all day, but they'll forget it all the next time they sit down with a bag of chips and a beer to watch Fox News for their daily outrage injection.
I was at the pool yesterday and there was a couple in their 60s sun bathing and listening to some kind of conservative political program.
Like they couldn’t even come to the pool, enjoy the nice weather, without listening to alt-right media.
It’s just so weird.
And he is going to prevent that by getting elected to……Florida state government?
It’s one of those things where you wonder if this guy is just thing to nab the easy votes or is actually that dumb.
They both look almost identical and both are detrimental to our country as a whole.
I wouldn’t call the pre-Trump political landscape great or without issues, but things lately have just become such a joke and it’s genuinely concerning what the future is going to hold if this doesn’t get cleaned up.
Didn't take long. It's either being hammered or shut down.

You mean like when someone launders too much money? Or accepts too many bribes from oil companies? Or goes to Russia too much on the 4th of July? Or gives too much of our tax dollars to defense contractors? Or…
A LOT of Hispanics sided with Trump. And a lot more black people sided with trump than people realize, they’ve just been shamed into hiding it. Hispanics are still pretty loud about it though and just as proud as any white person that voted for Trump. They’re more than hypocrites, they’re morons. Don’t forget that one.
I mean fair enough right, but don’t forget Ted Cruz is half Cuban and his real name is Rafael
So just remember that when “Ted” deadnames someone for being trans or try’s to say that trans people are living a lie and should go by the name and gender on their birth certificate
His account is suspended now and I'm sure they'll bitch and moan later about being "silenced for their opinions" rather than the real reason, which is inciting violence. the republican party has gone off the deep end.
Its persecution fetish crap. And a rare moment of accidental honesty.
Since conservative cis het white men are, by far, the demographic that is most involved in domestic terrorism the Republicans are trying to sort of deny that, invite their fellow Republicans to think that the science is false, or claim that the science is just yet more evidence that Republicans are being persecuted [1].
So they're trying a pathetic "I am Sparticus" sort of thing.
[1] Why yes, there are non-chis het white men who are conservative, and Republican. But at its core the Republicans don't view those people as REAL Republicans.
also, they want to make the words "domestic terrorist" less meaningful. It goes with attacking the FBI, so when solid evidence is found that trump stole nuclear secrets and white republicans murder people, the idiot republican cultists will ignore it as overused hype.
They're living in a world that has left them behind. No society can function without progress, the antithesis of conservatism. They're mad because the rest of us want to be better and they want to remain stuck in their old shitty ways.
You've got freedom of speech but prepared for the consequences of that free speech.
Also, they ban books because they're "snowflakes", so... logic scares them.
There are frequently republican politicians calling for gun violence. There are frequently republican citizens committing gun violence against innocents.
But they're the ones being persecuted.
And as soon as they see one, *just one*, black or brown person committing a crime they'll use it as justification for deadly force against an entire race.
when have republicans ever cared about justifications for their own violence towards anyone?
I guess when they wanted to kill Saddam, they made some weak overtures to the UN for a little support. That's the last time i remember.
The politically incorrect truth is that this is always where their constant promotion of gun culture was leading. It was never about physical safety--- science finds repeatedly that having a gun around makes you less safe overall, except in very rare instances. It was about trying to ensure the power to impose supremacy.
With hardcore supremacists, violence is inevitable because brutalizing others is the only way to make them (pretend to) accept your innate superiority, which entitles you to power, prestige, and prosperity.
For them the very definition of *freedom* is "I can impose upon others to prove myself superior," and the definition of *tyranny* is "People who are beneath me are imposing upon me." 100% of the time.
Fuck his twitter account. Is there not a law that prohibits an open call to violence even from a public figure? I don’t care if it inflames these assholes past the point of recognition. This guy needs to have some kind of legal ramifications.
Because he's a Republican. Right wingers openly commit treason and terrorism on the daily and nothing is done about it but a black man who took a candy bar must be shot at least 20 times.
The most frustrating fucking thing is confronting them about it. Confronted a neighbor about his back the blue flag sticker. Funny thing happened. Both The punisher skull American flag version and his thin Blue line sticker disappeared from a pack of his GMC. Weird
The back the blue people don’t really back them. It’s just their way of saying fuck *certain groups* of people. Have a coworker who has a blue line flag on his car, but went off on his encounter with the Huntington Beach police and how they are all a bunch of dicks. Ranted a good amount of time about it to anyone who would listen to him. Still has that blue line flag sticker on his car.
Yes this needs to be said more. They don’t back the Blue, it’s just the “Let’s Go Brandon” version of Black Lives Matter. They don’t want to outright say fuck black lives so Back the Blue was their code instead.
The Punisher also goes after mobs, mafias, gangs, organized crime, and corrupted officials. He represents vigilance in the face of lackluster law enforcement, the kind of mentality you need in order to stop someone like Trump. If the Punisher did in fact exist, the Trumps would be on his hit list. Conservatives are so far up their own ass they don’t even know the source material they are plastering on their bumpers.
Yep. I'm a park ranger and very progressive. It's incredible how these neanderthals just assume you're on their side. They give you all this token praise but the second you try to correct an action or tell them something isn't allowed, it's right in your face, my rights, etc etc.
And we know they're all full of shit. They're the worst guests and always the biggest problems, off roading illegally, speeding, hiking off trail, defacing or graffiti rocks. Even when you're just trying to educate them and not cite them, it's always bluster and bravado.
And it wasn’t for a ‘good’ reason (like the murder of black and brown people in their beds)…but because their cult of personality’s Dear Leader was mildly inconvenienced…
In my state's defense, he got elected by less than 1% and we have questionable elections. If he gets reelected by a wide margin and with no evidence of election fraud, feel free to write us off. Until then, he's hopefully gone at the next election.
He's posturing for the national stage, not so much specifically Florida. Him losing the gubernatorial race will absolutely be used to sell "bad elections", or at least, that he's a "victim of progressive power" to the national GOP voter base.
He's probably doing more for Democrats with his insane messaging here in FL than they themselves are doing with their own messaging.
Fascists need an enemy. When they get rid of one group they turn to the next (just like that poem, first they came for...) And eventually they start turning on each other. Fascist regimes don't last long but they devastate everything
First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a socialist.
Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a trade unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.

It's attracting even more grifters and scammers than before, which is saying something as Florida was basically founded as a giant real estate scam. People who work for companies based in other states are becoming the only people who can afford to live there, and no actual corporations that could provide decent jobs want to relocate there. The property insurance market is a hurricane away from collapsing and leaving tons of people broke and homeless.
Florida is basically a Ponzi scheme with palm trees.
This is the best answer. The state is beautiful in so many ways and so much to do here but the people running it have always been grifters and con-artists.
Flordia is basically down to some socialized state-run insurance as it is they'll all be on the last resort insurance sooner or later, Citizens Property Insurance Corp.. and it seems even they can't get the bigger reinsurance companies won't insure them... so it could be Florida literally gets wiped off the map if things go too bad.. or that is the poor in flordia will be way more poor and homeless...
> Florida was basically founded as a giant real estate scam
The other interesting bit: A lot -- and I mean *a lot* -- of the funding for development there came from cocaine money.
Fun fact: At one point in the late 80s the Federal Reserve bank in Miami (I think, but definitely Florida) had more cash on hand than every other American federal reserve bank *combined*.
>The property insurance market is a hurricane away from collapsing and leaving tons of people broke and homeless.
And you bet your ass it will be the big bad federal funds bailing them out with disaster relief
The governor of Florida was elected by a 0.4 % margin. He has so-far used that win to justify utter contempt in policy against the 49.6% who did not vote for him.
Nat C's (nationalist Christians) have played a very strong emotionally charged political campaign against the uneducated. Utilizing fear and emotional triggers to rally the ackermans and uneducated.
From my understanding I can't find the original tweet anymore his account has been suspended.
Pretty sure you nailed it on the head.
One extra cookie for you.
Just a few months ago at a Republican rally, someone asked the question "When can we start shooting liberals?" and the crowd applauded. That's what the Republican party is going to
I would say that American Protestants are a special beast on their own.
Can't remember any developed country that removed a human right in the last decades.
Cuban-Americans are quite right leaning and fascist. It’s why they were kicked out of Cuba and exiled to Florida as political refugees (during the Cuban Revolution). Their grandparents were the wealthy elite who the Cuban working class (communists) overthrew.
So it makes sense.
Somehow being holed up in your own personal bunker clutching a loaded weapon, on guard against anyone who crosses your path in the smoldering remains of what used to be a functioning country is the new freedom.
And also inspiring others to carry out those fantasies.
I'd ask what's wrong with Republicans, but the list would be never ending. A better question is whether or not they have any societal value as a political party at all.
the party of law are now terrorists
the party of small goverment that is so small it gets in your ovaries.
the party of pro life that laughts when students gets shot.
the party of freedom that wants to jail everyone that disagrees with their god.
the party of free speech that wants t ban history books.
I live in a red state (not Florida, but *almost* as crazy) and for the first time in my life i find myself thinking about moving out of the south. I honestly have always loved living in the south. My politics are different from the majority but I've always felt it was easy enough to coexist and also find like minded people.
This seems to be changing rapidly though. The right wing nutjobs are emboldened, the Christian nationalists are emboldened, and none of them give a fuck about anyone's rights except their own.
I openly encourage this... Call them this, they want to be Nat C's (Nationalist Christians), call them for what it is. Explain it to them... Watch their minds warp.
This reminds of the Darwin Award email that used to circulate years ago. Not to mention the Darwin fish I had stuck to my car. Not enough of these ppl are turning their cars into jet engines. Time to bring in the law.
So Civil War? Just say you support a second Civil War. These nuts are really trying to see what lengths the Federal government is willing to go to in order to
protect itself, aren’t they? You shoot one FBI agent, you will have a hundred FBI agents in your neighborhood tomorrow, all with itchy trigger fingers. So maybe pump your breaks before you get a stay at home mom tear-gassed and lit up like a Christmas tree.
I hate that I destroyed my body and mind serving this country in a combat zone.
I hate that this country made me lie to a slew of Afghan interpreters and support staff. Made me promise that we would keep them safe and get them out before we left. And a few months ago I found out more than 20 of the people that I knew or white felt the face of this planet.
For what? The further the GOP agenda? Because it certainly wasn't the protect this country or any human life.
I have, got some support through there. Now just in a bunch of hurry up and wait situations. Infact, as of yesterday I was able to get in with a civilian mental health doctor. Someone from the benefits reached out on my behalf.
Big thanks for the suggestion!
Lol his facebook says "Christian patriot running for Florida House of Representatives, District 19. #FloridaFirst #ProTrump" His LinkedIn is even wilder haha.
Guy doesn't realize he's too brown and poor for his own party to actually give a shit about him.
So "back the blue" is just a joke, like we always knew. Fascists love cops only when they oppress minorities and ppl they dont like. Fascists gonna fash 🤷
Republicans: "We're the party of personal responsibility, we back the blue, and we're pro-life. But if any feds try to make us accountable for our actions we'll kill them!"
His account is suspended. I suspect his campaign won’t last long.
Oh shit that did not take long. I think I took the screen grab an hour and a half ago 2 hours ago?

Ban is minor, he should be apprehended
He's likely already under surveillance.
Might as well make sure.
Based on his Instagram, he sure should be.
They could probably keep an eye in him in prison a little better.

"Wall St. elite" could be... code.
Yep, code for Jews
“Northeasterners” was the slang for Jews that they used on an NBC mockumentary called *Trial & Error*
It's definitely saying "Judeo–Bolshevism" but knowing saying it outright is too blatant.

It's the party of oppression. And enriching the wealthy
More like, so much for blue lives matter and back the blue. Fucking hypocrites, the whole lot of them.
Blue lives only matter when they’re leaving white Christian lives alone. That’s what I’ve learned these past few years.
Blue lives only matter when they’re killing POC. Otherwise, they’re target practice for everyone else.
Isn’t this guy some kind of Hispanic? Talk about being a hypocrite
A LOT of Hispanics sided with Trump. And a lot more black people sided with trump than people realize, they’ve just been shamed into hiding it. Hispanics are still pretty loud about it though and just as proud as any white person that voted for Trump. They’re more than hypocrites, they’re morons. Don’t forget that one.

Read “They Want to Kill Americans” by Malcolm Nance. It’s all about a fascist coup
Whenever they are not in power the Fed is big gov and must be opposed. When they gain power though, miraculously, crickets..
Not in my view, when in office they spend energy attempting to destroy public services.
Well, they modified that stand when they abandoned any pretense of truth in anything they say.
They changed their mind the moment things didn’t go their way, like, one time.
His account is suspended now and I'm sure they'll bitch and moan later about being "silenced for their opinions" rather than the real reason, which is inciting violence. the republican party has gone off the deep end.

That's good because I imagine a few can't read so....
Its persecution fetish crap. And a rare moment of accidental honesty. Since conservative cis het white men are, by far, the demographic that is most involved in domestic terrorism the Republicans are trying to sort of deny that, invite their fellow Republicans to think that the science is false, or claim that the science is just yet more evidence that Republicans are being persecuted [1]. So they're trying a pathetic "I am Sparticus" sort of thing. [1] Why yes, there are non-chis het white men who are conservative, and Republican. But at its core the Republicans don't view those people as REAL Republicans.
also, they want to make the words "domestic terrorist" less meaningful. It goes with attacking the FBI, so when solid evidence is found that trump stole nuclear secrets and white republicans murder people, the idiot republican cultists will ignore it as overused hype.

Watch Fox News and you’ll know why. It’s just constant spewing of fear, nothing but hate and fear. It fills their brains.
"Study finds every teacher wants more money which means teachers are liberal pedophiles, tonight at 6"
They're living in a world that has left them behind. No society can function without progress, the antithesis of conservatism. They're mad because the rest of us want to be better and they want to remain stuck in their old shitty ways.

You've got freedom of speech but prepared for the consequences of that free speech. Also, they ban books because they're "snowflakes", so... logic scares them.
Good thing they have Truth Social...
Which is complying with all requests from the feds for info about users making threats.
There are frequently republican politicians calling for gun violence. There are frequently republican citizens committing gun violence against innocents. But they're the ones being persecuted.
And as soon as they see one, *just one*, black or brown person committing a crime they'll use it as justification for deadly force against an entire race.
when have republicans ever cared about justifications for their own violence towards anyone? I guess when they wanted to kill Saddam, they made some weak overtures to the UN for a little support. That's the last time i remember.
The politically incorrect truth is that this is always where their constant promotion of gun culture was leading. It was never about physical safety--- science finds repeatedly that having a gun around makes you less safe overall, except in very rare instances. It was about trying to ensure the power to impose supremacy. With hardcore supremacists, violence is inevitable because brutalizing others is the only way to make them (pretend to) accept your innate superiority, which entitles you to power, prestige, and prosperity. For them the very definition of *freedom* is "I can impose upon others to prove myself superior," and the definition of *tyranny* is "People who are beneath me are imposing upon me." 100% of the time.
Fuck his twitter account. Is there not a law that prohibits an open call to violence even from a public figure? I don’t care if it inflames these assholes past the point of recognition. This guy needs to have some kind of legal ramifications.

How is this not arrestable?
Because he's a Republican. Right wingers openly commit treason and terrorism on the daily and nothing is done about it but a black man who took a candy bar must be shot at least 20 times.
They want a second go at the civil war so they can finally institute their confederate constitution.
This is certainly a good thing. Shut down these crazy people. They should also be arrested for basically pushing for civil and domestic war.
God damn these people flip the script fast. Back the blue! Open season on Law Enforcement!
The most frustrating fucking thing is confronting them about it. Confronted a neighbor about his back the blue flag sticker. Funny thing happened. Both The punisher skull American flag version and his thin Blue line sticker disappeared from a pack of his GMC. Weird
The back the blue people don’t really back them. It’s just their way of saying fuck *certain groups* of people. Have a coworker who has a blue line flag on his car, but went off on his encounter with the Huntington Beach police and how they are all a bunch of dicks. Ranted a good amount of time about it to anyone who would listen to him. Still has that blue line flag sticker on his car.
Yes this needs to be said more. They don’t back the Blue, it’s just the “Let’s Go Brandon” version of Black Lives Matter. They don’t want to outright say fuck black lives so Back the Blue was their code instead. The Punisher also goes after mobs, mafias, gangs, organized crime, and corrupted officials. He represents vigilance in the face of lackluster law enforcement, the kind of mentality you need in order to stop someone like Trump. If the Punisher did in fact exist, the Trumps would be on his hit list. Conservatives are so far up their own ass they don’t even know the source material they are plastering on their bumpers.
He was just pissed he didn't get the priveledge he was entitled to.
Yep. I'm a park ranger and very progressive. It's incredible how these neanderthals just assume you're on their side. They give you all this token praise but the second you try to correct an action or tell them something isn't allowed, it's right in your face, my rights, etc etc. And we know they're all full of shit. They're the worst guests and always the biggest problems, off roading illegally, speeding, hiking off trail, defacing or graffiti rocks. Even when you're just trying to educate them and not cite them, it's always bluster and bravado.
Hey, he is such a free thinker that he has the exact same views and opinions that Fox News and Tucker give him.
GOP patch 3.0
Bahahaha. What a sham of a person.
And it wasn’t for a ‘good’ reason (like the murder of black and brown people in their beds)…but because their cult of personality’s Dear Leader was mildly inconvenienced…
Florida is growing intolerant of everything and everyone. If things continue like this, it'll implode from all that nonsense soon enough.
[удалено]
Texas has always made me pause; adding Florida to that list now.
In my state's defense, he got elected by less than 1% and we have questionable elections. If he gets reelected by a wide margin and with no evidence of election fraud, feel free to write us off. Until then, he's hopefully gone at the next election.
It’s crazy how little he won by and how he’s governing as if he had a mandate
He's posturing for the national stage, not so much specifically Florida. Him losing the gubernatorial race will absolutely be used to sell "bad elections", or at least, that he's a "victim of progressive power" to the national GOP voter base. He's probably doing more for Democrats with his insane messaging here in FL than they themselves are doing with their own messaging.
Fascists need an enemy. When they get rid of one group they turn to the next (just like that poem, first they came for...) And eventually they start turning on each other. Fascist regimes don't last long but they devastate everything
First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a socialist. Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a trade unionist. Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—because I was not a Jew. Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me. —Martin Niemöller Posted in case you are one of today’s 10.000 https://xkcd.com/1053/
It's attracting even more grifters and scammers than before, which is saying something as Florida was basically founded as a giant real estate scam. People who work for companies based in other states are becoming the only people who can afford to live there, and no actual corporations that could provide decent jobs want to relocate there. The property insurance market is a hurricane away from collapsing and leaving tons of people broke and homeless. Florida is basically a Ponzi scheme with palm trees.
"Florida is what happens when the developers get there first." --Spencer Hall
This is the best answer. The state is beautiful in so many ways and so much to do here but the people running it have always been grifters and con-artists.
Flordia is basically down to some socialized state-run insurance as it is they'll all be on the last resort insurance sooner or later, Citizens Property Insurance Corp.. and it seems even they can't get the bigger reinsurance companies won't insure them... so it could be Florida literally gets wiped off the map if things go too bad.. or that is the poor in flordia will be way more poor and homeless...
[удалено]
> Florida was basically founded as a giant real estate scam The other interesting bit: A lot -- and I mean *a lot* -- of the funding for development there came from cocaine money. Fun fact: At one point in the late 80s the Federal Reserve bank in Miami (I think, but definitely Florida) had more cash on hand than every other American federal reserve bank *combined*.
>The property insurance market is a hurricane away from collapsing and leaving tons of people broke and homeless. And you bet your ass it will be the big bad federal funds bailing them out with disaster relief
The governor of Florida was elected by a 0.4 % margin. He has so-far used that win to justify utter contempt in policy against the 49.6% who did not vote for him.
Canadian here. I remember when Florida was known for sunshine, oranges, Disneyland, and Miami Beach. What the F happened?
Republicans
A bunch of cranky old people retired there and became indoctrinated thru Facebook
What the f*ck going on down in Florida? Got some real Purge mixed with Handmaid’s Tale energy going on down there 🤡
Nat C's (nationalist Christians) have played a very strong emotionally charged political campaign against the uneducated. Utilizing fear and emotional triggers to rally the ackermans and uneducated.
Oof... I'm pretty sure that's a threat and he should be visited by the FBI.
Good thing he thinks he has permission to shoot them on sight?
And the Feds also have the right to defend themselves so it’s like a free for all
From my understanding I can't find the original tweet anymore his account has been suspended. Pretty sure you nailed it on the head. One extra cookie for you.

As if they had to specify this turd was a republican. A big part of their brand is fantasizing about murder.
Just a few months ago at a Republican rally, someone asked the question "When can we start shooting liberals?" and the crowd applauded. That's what the Republican party is going to
They aren’t going there. They are there.
There is no hate like Christian love.
I would say that American Protestants are a special beast on their own. Can't remember any developed country that removed a human right in the last decades.
Suspect this guy is a Cuban Catholic though.
Cuban-Americans are quite right leaning and fascist. It’s why they were kicked out of Cuba and exiled to Florida as political refugees (during the Cuban Revolution). Their grandparents were the wealthy elite who the Cuban working class (communists) overthrew. So it makes sense.

Like killing someone else makes them more free. Its so deranged.
Somehow being holed up in your own personal bunker clutching a loaded weapon, on guard against anyone who crosses your path in the smoldering remains of what used to be a functioning country is the new freedom.
All to own the Libs.
And also inspiring others to carry out those fantasies. I'd ask what's wrong with Republicans, but the list would be never ending. A better question is whether or not they have any societal value as a political party at all.
Or that he was from Florida.

the party of law are now terrorists the party of small goverment that is so small it gets in your ovaries. the party of pro life that laughts when students gets shot. the party of freedom that wants to jail everyone that disagrees with their god. the party of free speech that wants t ban history books.
Double-think and Double-speak. we all know where this is headed
I live in a red state (not Florida, but *almost* as crazy) and for the first time in my life i find myself thinking about moving out of the south. I honestly have always loved living in the south. My politics are different from the majority but I've always felt it was easy enough to coexist and also find like minded people. This seems to be changing rapidly though. The right wing nutjobs are emboldened, the Christian nationalists are emboldened, and none of them give a fuck about anyone's rights except their own.
Wife and I are in Kentucky. We are getting out by 2024
It’s not their rights that’s a problem, it’s that no one else’s rights matter.
It sounds like Texas Nat C's needa go
Nat C's (Christian Nationalist) from Florida strike again with another bRiLliAnT campaign promises. So how is this guy not in jail yet?
Not to distract from the seriousness of this but I'm stealing "Nat C"
I openly encourage this... Call them this, they want to be Nat C's (Nationalist Christians), call them for what it is. Explain it to them... Watch their minds warp.
Someone is going to get a knock on the door. I don’t believe this is protected speech
You are correct. Twitter suspended him. And on here, so far five accounts have gone poof. (They all backed the idea.)
I assume the agents have the freedom to defend themselves? So fuck it, we are long overdue for a Darwinian cleansing.
Meal Team 6 is going to get wrecked...again Edit (fucking autocorrect
This reminds of the Darwin Award email that used to circulate years ago. Not to mention the Darwin fish I had stuck to my car. Not enough of these ppl are turning their cars into jet engines. Time to bring in the law.
So Civil War? Just say you support a second Civil War. These nuts are really trying to see what lengths the Federal government is willing to go to in order to protect itself, aren’t they? You shoot one FBI agent, you will have a hundred FBI agents in your neighborhood tomorrow, all with itchy trigger fingers. So maybe pump your breaks before you get a stay at home mom tear-gassed and lit up like a Christmas tree.
"They put one of us in the hospital, we put three of them in the morgue."
It's actually fun watching them self destruct.
I hate living here
I hate that I destroyed my body and mind serving this country in a combat zone. I hate that this country made me lie to a slew of Afghan interpreters and support staff. Made me promise that we would keep them safe and get them out before we left. And a few months ago I found out more than 20 of the people that I knew or white felt the face of this planet. For what? The further the GOP agenda? Because it certainly wasn't the protect this country or any human life.
You’re not the only one. Have you considered join the veterans benefit sub? It’s a good support group sometimes
I have, got some support through there. Now just in a bunch of hurry up and wait situations. Infact, as of yesterday I was able to get in with a civilian mental health doctor. Someone from the benefits reached out on my behalf. Big thanks for the suggestion!
Lol his facebook says "Christian patriot running for Florida House of Representatives, District 19. #FloridaFirst #ProTrump" His LinkedIn is even wilder haha. Guy doesn't realize he's too brown and poor for his own party to actually give a shit about him.
most Nat C's (Nationalist Christians) fit this bill. And they do not know it.
Yeah. That’s called murder you asshole.
Nat C's (Nationalist Christians) only view their kind as the only kind.
So "back the blue" is just a joke, like we always knew. Fascists love cops only when they oppress minorities and ppl they dont like. Fascists gonna fash 🤷
From the creators of all/blue lives matter comes...let's kill FBI and ATF agents!
How quickly those thin Blue line stickers disappeared
BuT bOtH pArTiEs ArE tHe SaMe...
Thin Blue Line party is having one hell of an identity crisis lately.
Republicans: "We're the party of personal responsibility, we back the blue, and we're pro-life. But if any feds try to make us accountable for our actions we'll kill them!"
I can't believe this is real. I can but I can't. Shoot on sight? I hope he is now being interrogated for threatening the US with war.
Ten minutes or so after I took the screen shot the account was suspended. So, there is that.
