> In September 2022, Robertson allegedly posted online, "The time is right for a presidential assassination or two. First Joe then Kamala!!!"[3] He also allegedly posted a picture of a rifle captioned, "My democrat eradicator!!!"[14] Robertson also allegedly threatened New York attorney general Letitia James and had "patriotic dreams" of shooting Governor of California Gavin Newsom with "my S&W M&P 9mm" and shooting US attorney general Merrick Garland "dead center in his forehead".[3][15][16] In November 2022, he indicated he had nine firearms including at least three rifles and intended to buy an additional three for "getting ready for the 2024 election cycle."

Wow, there's something really wrong with this guy. This goes beyond "criticism" but I admit I don't know where the line falls before you consider a death threat to be worth taking action on.

It's honestly incredible to me that there are people who truly believe these two things are comparable:

> Mr. Dernbach, don’t play Russian roulette with H’s life

Verses posting images of an arsenal, writing they need to buy guns for the upcoming election, and also:

> The time is right for a presidential assassination or two. First Joe then Kamala!!!

One is clearly threatening murder towards public officials and showing themselves taking steps to enact their plan. The other is a concerned citizen exercising their first amendment right. I have to believe the people saying these are the same are bots, because the alternative is just so pathetic.

It’s against federal law to threaten a public official. It’s a felony, actually. 18 USC 115.

I’m not sure what this other guy wrote, but the guy you mentioned broke the law. If this 67 year old guy threatened federal agents in a similar way, he’s guilty of a crime as well.

I have no opinion on whether this Craig was armed when the FBI tried to arrest him.
