Three Kansas militiamen who plotted to bomb Muslims are found guilty on terrorism charges
I don't remember hearing about this on the news.
The men — at least two of whom had posted pro-Trump messages on social media, according to reports — at times invoked anti-Islam rhetoric expressed by Trump and his allies during the 2016 election. In an April 2016 conservation, Stein talked about killing Muslims – whom he called “cockroaches” – with weapons dipped in pig’s blood, echoing an apocryphal tale that Trump had referenced two months prior when he spoke admiringly of U.S. Gen. John J. Pershing killing early 20th-century Muslim insurgents in the Philippines using bullets dipped in pig’s blood.
Defense attorneys argued the men were naive followers of fake news who engaged in “locker room talk” and were entrapped by an FBI scheme, echoing President Trump in painting the FBI as conniving and unethical.

Locker room talk? Really?
Is that a double standard or what?
What about the guy that shot up a waffle house. He was armed. How come he wasn't shot by the police? He was even armed with a 45 and a lot's of ammunition.
