AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — A man seen on surveillance video wearing an American flag bandanna when he threw a Molotov cocktail into the headquarters of the county Democratic Party in Austin was arrested in Texas, a fire official said.​
Ryan Faircloth, 30, was booked Friday in the Travis County jail. He was charged with arson and possessing a prohibited weapon — the Molotov cocktail — according to Austin Fire arson investigator Capt. Jeffrey Deane.​
Investigators received multiple tips after releasing the surveillance video. One of the tips led to Faircloth’s social media. Information found online and other evidence led arson investigators and the FBI to make the arrest, Deane said at a news conference.​
“This person was not happy with the current political climate. He blamed this office and who they represent for a lot of the issues that he saw as problems with the country,” Deane said. “He was forthcoming and confessed to that.”​
Deane also said Faircloth left a note at the scene of the headquarters. He declined to give specifics on the contents of the letter, but said the suspect alluded to possible plans for future attacks which led investigators to act quickly to get him off the streets.​

He should have been better at his attack. He needs lessons in how to conduct a covert attack.
 
Oh, so you'd have cheered him had he succeeded in burning down the Dem HQ in Austin?
Why would you think that? These silly FBI plots do nothing to further the conservative cause. In fact only the most rabid liberals seem the least bit interested in them.
 
My reply was to Dipsy. But your FBI conspiracy theories are hilarious. :lol:
Not my fault the FBI is balls deep in all these silly plots. Seriously, pay attention, the FBI and their informants are pushing people from angry ramblings to prosecutable offenses. Then they swoop in and solve the crimes they planned. The rubes cheer and ignore the fact the threat is manufactured.

Link or STFU. No, 1/6 was not planned by the freaking FBI. Jesus :rolleyes-41:

Here's a small taste.



 
A bit more info..probably NOT a false flag..as the suspect has been forthcoming as to his guilt and motives.


“This person was not happy with the current political climate,” Austin Fire Department arson investigator Captain Jeffrey Deane said during a press conference. “He blamed this office and who they represent for a lot of the issues that he saw as problems with the country. He was forthcoming and confessed to that.”
A threatening note, reportedly political in nature, was also left at the scene of the crime, according to Democratic Party officials.
 
Are all Trumpers terrorists or terrorist sympathizers?
The woke communists have to be stopped. They will not be stopped by exhortations, pleading or acting nicely.

As perfectly stated by H.L. Mencken. Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats.
