Never underestimate the levels that mental illness can take people to. I say if some turd wants to incite such violence, the very kind that we as firearms owners and carriers try to defend against, I say stuff the crow down his throat and show everyone exactly what side of the law we're on and prove to him that we'd rather take the side of the law, not the showdown at noon.

I am on the side of the law. There are statutes against this type of speech. Like yelling fire in a crowded theater. He has to be responsible for his speech and ongoing rantings. Like us, the armed civilian, he needs to think before he speaks or acts. He obviously doesn't and there are consequences for that. At a minimum I hope he feels the pressure. However, knowing this government, etc, I don't expect anything to happen and these type of activities and speech will continue.
A real shame.

Keep us updated if anything comes of this. I would be very interested to hear of any action.
Walk softly ...
they're arresting people here in Florida that post threats on Facebook and charge them with a second degree felony.....of course the threats are ususally with shooting up a school, but I really
don't see how this case is any different. Threats are made towards the NRA Members. A threat in print is pretty good evidence, which is why I never go on Facebook and wouldn't know a Tweety from
a Sylvester.
Kimbers are the guns you show your friends....Glocks are the ones you show your enemies.
How does an anti go after an NRA member anyway?
Hey, Dude, can I borrow your gun for a minute?

does it matter? The subject person in the OP made a threat against all NRA members saying they should be shot. Based on what? The actions of a lunatic? How would that differ from saying all liberals should be shot because they support abortion?just making a point,not advocating violence.
You gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You are able to say to yourself, "I have lived through this horror. I can take the next thing that comes along." . . . You must do the thing you think you cannot do. Eleanor Roosevelt
At FBI headquarters: "Hey Bob! Some guy is suggesting we kill all NRA members...Aren't they the ones with all of the guns?"
Amateurs practice until they get it right. Professionals practice until they can’t get it wrong..

The FBI? Really? Let's distract them from investigating real crimes and doing things like... oh, I don't know... stopping terrorism to play a political game.
Filing a complaint with the local PD that would be filed and never thought of again is one thing. But the FBI?
