There was a policy under Trump that you were allowed to threaten to kill the president.
Johnny Depp, Madonna, Snoop Dogg, and many other famous people, along with an infinite number of randos on Twitter, threatened to kill President Trump, and it was allowed, because he is an evil racist.
But you’re not allowed to actually attempt to do it. Apparently.
A foreign national who mailed poison to former President Donald Trump in September 2020 received a nearly 22-year sentence Thursday, according to the Justice Department.
Pascale Cecile Veronique Ferrier, a dual citizen of Canada and France, mailed envelopes containing threatening letters and homemade ricin to Trump and eight Texas law enforcement officers, according to the DOJ. Ferrier made the deadly poison at her home in Quebec out of castor beans, mailed the letters from Canada and proceeded to cross the Canada-U.S. border in a car loaded with weapons and ammunition, where she was apprehended by border patrol officers on Sept. 20, 2020.
“I consider myself to be an activist, not a terrorist,” Ferrier said at her sentencing, according to CNN. “Activists are constructive, terrorists are destructive. . . The only regret I have is that it didn’t work and that I couldn’t stop Trump.”
Ferrier referred to Trump as an “Ugly Tyrant Clown” in her letter, according to The Associated Press.
Imagine this bitch having the nerve to call someone else “ugly”
“If it doesn’t work, I’ll find better recipe for another poison, or I might use my gun when I’ll be able to come. Enjoy! FREE REBEL SPIRIT,” she wrote, according to the AP.
The thing about this is. The one thing I’ll say about this is. Here it is: this woman, as you can tell from the photo, is actually mentally ill. She was acting after being agitated by people in the media who were purposefully agitating the mentally ill.
I don’t think that means she shouldn’t be held responsible. And I don’t think that media people can be held responsible for the actions of the insane. (These are arguments they try to make against the Daily Stormer, so obviously I don’t support them.)
But we should say the truth about what is going on here.
The media was attempting to agitate the mentally unstable into doing violent acts against Trump.
If what they said about him was true – that he was a Hitler-like figure (the cartoon version) planning to genocide all brown people and homosexuals, then I guess the moral thing would be to take action against him, no?
If someone is planning a mass murder, then by killing them you are saving lives, right?
The other thing is: while the media was saying this stuff, they were actively engaged in silencing anyone who disagreed with them. Therefore, this media is a criminal conspiracy advocating for violence, and should be investigated and prosecuted as such.
