Casualty of war?
Posted on 08/12/2022 5:50:41 AM PDT by shadowlands1960
A man identified by two law enforcement sources as Ricky Shiffer, who died in a confrontation with police after he fired a nail gun at a Cincinnati FBI building, appeared to post online in recent days about his desire to kill FBI agents shortly after former President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago residence was searched.
Two law enforcement officials confirmed Shiffer’s name. Shiffer was at the Capitol riot on Jan. 6, 2021, according to three people aiding law enforcement who saw him in photos taken from the day of the attack; however, it’s unclear whether he went inside the building. Shiffer frequently posted about his attendance at the Capitol on social media.
On Truth Social, a social media platform founded by Trump’s media company, Trump Media & Technology Group, Shiffer appeared to have posted a message detailing his failed attempt to gain entry to the FBI building.
“Well, I thought I had a way through bullet proof glass, and I didn’t. If you don’t hear from me, it is true I tried attacking the F.B.I., and it’ll mean either I was taken off the internet, the F.B.I. got me, or they sent the regular cops while,” the account @RickyWShifferJr wrote at 9:29 a.m. ET, shortly after police allege the shooting occurred.
Shiffer posted to Truth Social multiple times in the days after the FBI searched Trump’s residence in Palm Beach, Florida, about wanting to engage in violence. One post called for people to arm themselves and be ready for “combat.”
“We must not tolerate this one,” he wrote.
Shiffer's Truth Social account, which was seen by NBC News on Thursday evening, has since become unavailable.

A nail gun?
Ban nail guns!
BFD AOL and NBC
Now about all those people killed in the RIOTS of 2020
And that stolen election
And the following fake ‘insurrection” and “hearings”
And the assassination of Ashli Babbitt
Don’t you “journalists’ have other things to do do? Or is reporting on “social media” postings the highest level of your competence?
suicide by cop
>Well, I thought I had a way through bullet proof glass, and I didn’t.
Good thinking, pal. It’s a “bullet proof” glass, but no one ever said it is nail-proof! Good use of your brain!
It was an ‘assault’ nail gun.
Reports are pouring in!!
This guy was at the Jan. 6th protest, he rioted and looted blaming Antifa, he drowns kittens, he was the Supreme Court Abortion case leaker, and forced people to stuff fake ballots in ballot boxes……..
In war you need brains for planning.
Though these days I see nothing bit meatheads trying to play soldier.
See Russia for exhibit 1.
See this dude for exhibit 2.
Nail gun. Yesterday this guy was armed and assaulting the FBI. Today he’s Bob the Builder of his meds.
Maybe this is what they have been trolling for... nail gun doesn’t quite fit so back to trolling.
Why does this entire story stink to high heaven?
A nail gun?
Is this fake news?
Attack the FBI with a nail gun. Ok then.
I thought he had an AR-15 said the media yesterday?
Ricky Shiffer, who died in a confrontation with police after he fired a nail gun at a Cincinnati FBI building
According to the No-Brains-Collectively "news". He may have been carrying some press-on nails he'd picked up for his wife, for all we really know.

A nail gun???
seriously?
Was it an AR15 nail gun?
Was he dragging along a compressor, that he hooked up to an outlet on the FBI building?
Or, was it one of those ultra high cap Brad/ Nail/ Staple guns?
I think he had both. He stupidly thought that he can break the bulletproof glass with his nail gun.
Moron!
The reporting is all over the place on this. Probably he had both an AR pattern rifle as well as a nail gun.
But it's mainstream media, so it's just as likely that this person is an alias and was not actually mowed down in a corn field. A LARP in other words.
Nothing can be trusted as true, unfortunately.
No,No it was an AK-15 Nail Gun.
Clavorum semper tyrannis!!
Ban nail guns?
