"The complaint said Robertson came to the attention of federal agents in March after he posted a threat against Mr Bragg on Truth Social, the social network owned by Mr Trump. The company alerted the FBI's National Threat Operations Center.

FBI agents then visited the suspect, who told them that the post was a "dream" and ended the conversation by saying: "We're done here! Don't return without a warrant!""

Not only does Truth Social narc on him, but the "dreams" defense was a true sign of just how far gone that asshole was.

I imagine they put him down like a dog after he said that. I also imagine they just killed him first and made up that statement afterwards. Who's going to contradict the crazed armed murderers, not the dead guy I can tell you that, just ask Fred Hampton.

it's a really bizarre story, I can't find a single article explaining what actually happened. usually the cops lie and say he drew a weapon on them, or shot at them first, or they feared for their lives or something. there's nothing with this, they're just saying he's dead.

It all boils down to, there used to be subbed crazy idiot mouthing off to his phone. Then the cops came and now there's a dead body.

This is what's on the table with cop interaction, they're going to kill you. They know the game better than you, they'll always find a way to justify it and you'll be too much of a rotting course to care.
