An Alaska man was arrested Wednesday for allegedly threatening to assassinate six members of the Supreme Court and harm two family members, the Justice Department said.

Panos Anastasiou, 76, is accused of sending more than 465 messages to the Supreme Court through an online portal, which included violent, racist, and homophobic rhetoric, according to court filings. Anastasiou allegedly threatened to assassinate, kidnap, torture, hang, behead and execute the justices, and encouraged other people to join him in committing acts of violence, the Justice Department said.

He faces nine counts of making threats against a federal judge and 13 counts of making threats in interstate commerce. Anastasiou appeared before a federal magistrate judge Wednesday and pleaded not guilty.
The targeted justices are not named in the indictment and identified only as "Supreme Court justices 1-6." Charging documents state that some of the threats allegedly made by Anastasiou "were intended to intimidate" the justices and "retaliate against them for official actions" they had taken in their capacity as judges.
The Supreme Court has a 6-3 conservative majority and has come under immense criticism in recent years for decisions on politically charged issues including abortion, guns and presidential power.

It's an American thing.

But how is it all going to end? It's not too soon to make plans to be at least a mile away from the guns on Nov. 6th, with the wife and kids. (unarmed kids)

Threats of violence in America have become far too numerous for the law to bother noticing.
This could soon lead to the carrying out of the threats being below the law's radar. Vigilante justice is growning by leaps and bounds. It's a lot more serious than a granny getting slapped down on the streets.

Real nutbag. I'm sure there are more like him.

It's one of the spin-offs from our social media infatuation. I've often said that every village has its idiot--but the internet has created a village of idiots.
Along with that is the inevitable blurring between reality and fantasy--more and more I see this, people whose actions are not based on real-world issues--but virtual world fixations~

It’s always appeared that such violent rhetoric is an extreme partisan thing.

And mostly, it’s been a left wing thing.

Threats of violence have become the norm and they're far too numerous to attempt preventing or punishing.

Attempts on Trump's life are already like a 'lottery', instead of attempted murder being taken seriously.

Democrats believe -they- are entitled to commit political violence.

Why would you think that?

Are you considering violence with your guns on Nov. 6th?

I mean of course, necessary violence that's needed to save lives of innocents who only wanted to stop Kamala's commie fascist ambitions?

Are you getting ready? The crisis situation could come earlier, judging by the big swing in the polls.

Historically, you're correct. That's what makes this iteration so interesting...the predominantly Right-wing threats that cross the line.
This guy was a Lefty winger..and there are more like him..I bet the same proportion stands, irrespective of ideology.
But the Rw nutz ARE more prevalent this season..In my opinion, Trump HAS inflamed and empowered them--main reason he's going to lose..too many see this.
It's the RINO crowd..that's going to betray you all, once again.

But yeah, if Trump wins..then you'll see that vaunted lefty violence you've been waiting for~

Trying a bit too hard there--but keep it up..it amuses~

That's what you get with violent, vulgar rhetoric. I guess they think that's "free speech". Remember. Trump praised Kyle Rittenhouse and invited him to the White House. Vililantes egged on by Trump's mob boss mentality.
