The FBI revealed that Truth Social tipped off authorities about Robertson in March.

in March

Took them five months to do so much as a house call and five minutes to plug him full of lead.

'Murkia!

There was nothing wrong with him that a house call would solve. The man threatened to kill the president.

He's 70 years old. He's an adult and responsible for his own actions.

All they had to do was check up on him. Take his guns if he wasn't healthy. Maybe monitor him for a while. No need to murder him in his own home.

Not that I agree with him or anything, but I do think that cops shouldn't show up to your home unannounced and summarily execute you when all you've done is post.

You didn't read the article I guess? It wasn't the cops, it was the FBI. They don't do "check ups". If the FBI is checking up on you, you did some shit.

Also, they don't shoot without thinking. They aren't saying anything now, but I bet this dude drew a gun on the FBI. Which is one of the easiest ways to commit suicide.

So let's look at this dude again:

  • Posts lots of threats against specific leaders
  • Has lots of guns including a sniper rifle and a ghillie suit
  • Specifically says online he wants to use the sniper rifle to assassinate the specific leaders
  • A leader is coming to town, so the FBI investigates

And you think a "check up" is going to help? This dude 100% drew a gun on the FBI.

You bet he pulled a gun? Where is the video of this supposed action? Are we going to trust the FBI?

I did read the article, still not a fan of execution.

“The time is right for a presidential assassination or two. First Joe then Kamala!!!” officials claimed Robertson wrote in a September 2022 Facebook post, according to the filing.

You can see the economic anxiety in this desperate post 😢

Really, he's no different from Fred Hampton if you think about it

[-] cryptymythy@hexbear.net 5 points 2 years ago

I wouldn't trust this guys community breakfast though

If there isn’t a video of this then we should only assume this is an extrajudicial killing

Welcome to c/news! We aim to foster a book-club type environment for discussion and critical analysis of the news. Our policy objectives are:

We ask community members to appreciate the uncertainty inherent in critical analysis of current events, the need to constantly learn, and take part in the community with humility. None of us are the One True Leftist, not even you, the reader.

Newcomm and Newsmega Rules:

The Hexbear Code of Conduct and Terms of Service apply here.

  1. Link titles: Please use informative link titles. Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed.

  2. Content warnings: Posts on the newscomm and top-level replies on the newsmega should use content warnings appropriately. Please be thoughtful about wording and triggers when describing awful things in post titles.

  3. Fake news: No fake news posts ever, including April 1st. Deliberate fake news posting is a bannable offense. If you mistakenly post fake news the mod team may ask you to delete/modify the post or we may delete it ourselves.

  4. Link sources: All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. If you are citing a Twitter post as news, please include the Xcancel.com (or another Nitter instance) or at least strip out identifier information from the twitter link. There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance, such as Libredirect or archive them as you would any other reactionary source.

  5. Archive sites: We highly encourage use of non-paywalled archive sites (i.e. archive.is, web.archive.org, ghostarchive.org) so that links are widely accessible to the community and so that reactionary sources don’t derive data/ad revenue from Hexbear users. If you see a link without an archive link, please archive it yourself and add it to the thread, ask the OP to fix it, or report to mods. Including text of articles in threads is welcome.

  6. Low effort material: Avoid memes/jokes/shitposts in newscomm posts and top-level replies to the newsmega. This kind of content is OK in post replies and in newsmega sub-threads. We encourage the community to balance their contribution of low effort material with effort posts, links to real news/analysis, and meaningful engagement with material posted in the community.

  7. American politics: Discussion and effort posts on the (potential) material impacts of American electoral politics is welcome, but the never-ending circus of American Politics© Brought to You by Mountain Dew™ is not welcome. This refers to polling, pundit reactions, electoral horse races, rumors of who might run, etc.

  8. Electoralism: Please try to avoid struggle sessions about the value of voting/taking part in the electoral system in the West. c/electoralism is right over there.

  9. AI Slop: Don't post AI generated content. Posts about AI race/chip wars/data centers are fine.
