/----/ Obviously the guy has mental issues but what fascinates me is how the Marshals were able to track one guy halfway across the country and catch him in a field. Great job.

I uh don't think northern Ohio counts as "halfway across the country". It's the next state over.

Reminds me of the capture of Eric Rudolph. Near here. Although Rudolph actually did kill people.

The OP, which submits a picture but no link for the story so we have to take his word for all this, created a false title. He didn't threaten to shoot Rump; he threatened to shoot John Morganelli. Somebody needs to learn to English.

Actually, there's a link in the post. And this man did threaten to kill Donald.

On another note, I don't see a need to assume he has mental issues. Let's not assume all people who do bad things are just sick. Sometimes they're just bad people.

Here is a link from CNN. It states clearly Trump was also an intended target

Anyone who post threats against any President on social media should be arrested.

That link belongs in your OP --- not downstream after somebody calls you out for not posting one.

And it still doesn't say what you claimed. You already posted his threat, to wit:

"Keep it up Morganelli, I promise I'll put a bullet in your head as soon as I put one in the head of President Donald J. Trump."

"I'll put a bullet in your head" is a direct threat to Morganelli.

"as soon as I put one in the head of President Donald J. Trump." is a conditional phrase. Technically it describes WHEN he will shoot Morganelli. Since he's using that as a condition, if he his fantasy shooting of Rump never happens, then by his own timetable he cannot shoot Morganelli, as that condition has not been established. Practically it's bravado to set up the threat on Morganelli.

You can't threaten somebody in the third person. If he were to threaten Rump, the threat would have to go *TO* Rump, not to some third party who has no connection.

Y'all have got to learn how to figure out that you have to read past fake headlines. Fake headlines are written to grab eyeballs, not to be accurate.

That's because in spite of what tRump says federal law enforcement is pretty damn good at their job.

As far as the guy, glad he's been caught. As much as I dislike our so called *president* we can't have people running around threatening to kill him

He just edited that link in there after I called out its absence. And there's no evidence he threatened anybody but Morganelli. And agreed on the second point.

Your posts are 20 minutes apart, and if he had edited his post there would be a "last edited" line on the bottom of the post. Also, the man very clearly stated that he would kill the President. How much more evidence do you need that made a threat?

I think the problem here is that you can't read.

Right now the OP says "last edited 13 minutes ago" while mine was posted 28 minutes ago. See if you can figure out which came first. Then see post 13 for an English lesson. What he stated was that he would 'put a bullet in' Morganelli's head. That was the declarative sentence.

Okay I get what you mean
"Keep it up Morganelli, I promise I'll put a bullet in your head as soon as I put one in the head of President Donald J. Trump."
So he threatens to shoot Morganelli, and the shooting of Trump is just another thing he will do before he does that. He didn't directly threaten Trump, but he is basically implying he will shoot Trump which is pretty bad
