The guy openly posted that the FBI wouldn't dare raid him because they'd get a 45 ACP in the face. I'm no law enforcement apologist but that kind of boast can put people on edge. Specific threats of violence should never be acceptable.

I also prefer my threats of violence to be vague and unactionable.

I'll see you soon.

Not if I see you first.

Will no one rid me of this turbulent priest?

I'm not a priest, buddy.
