"because the only America they actually love is the one they masturbate to when they watch Birth of a Nation?"

It's nice to see one of Trump's terrorists actually being arrested for terrorizing people.

If only we could do something about the tens of millions more of them out there.

Arrest them all, hold them without bail. It's the only way they will learn. Oh, and take away their internet permits. I said it in 1992 and I'll say it again: It was a mistake to ever let those people on the internet in the first place.

As with "holes," the first rule of the FBI showing up to investigate you for terroristic threats is to stop making terroristic threats.

I thought that quote exemplified how goddamn lazy these types are. :"Yeah, we want to kill our political enemies, but only if it doesn't inconvenience us too much."

She's not going to *travel* to assassinate public figures, but they'd better just watch out if they come to her Small Town? JFC. Put SOME effort into your domestic terrorism, woman.

If you follow someone home and take their photo, won't you just get the back of their head?
