Another unhinged leftist!

Suspect Roger Hedgpeth, 25, was apprehended outside of the White House on Sunday while allegedly holding a knife and muttering about how he wanted to assassinate President Donald Trump.
A Secret Service officer reported that Hedgpheth told him: I am here to assassinate President Donald Trump I have a knife to do it with.
Hedgpheth is from Florida and the police report describes him as a critically missing/endangered person and mental health consumer. He was armed with a 3.5-inch blade that was attached to his left hip while there was an empty pistol holster on his right hip when he was apprehended, according to the police report.
This is at least the second time that a would-be assassin made an attempt at President Trumps life. Illegal alien Michael Sandford attempted to grab an officers firearm at a Trump rally in 2016 because of the murderous rage that the leftist harbored for Trump, who was a candidate at the time.
Sandford is now a free man after being given extreme leniency from the courts. He only served five months in prison a glorified slap on the wrist and then was deported back to the United Kingdom in 2017 after he received a generous plea deal from sympathetic government officials:
A British man jailed in the US for trying to grab a policemans gun at a Donald Trump rally in order to shoot and kill the then presidential candidate has returned to the UK.
Michael Sandford landed at Heathrow airport on Thursday, having been released nearly five months into a year-long sentence, his familys lawyer said.
The incident took place at a rally in Las Vegas in June last year.
Sandford, then aged 20, approached officers at the event, saying he wanted Trumps autograph.
But he then made a grab for an officers holstered weapon. He later told police he had intended to assassinate Trump.
Sandford, who has autism and suffers from mental health problems, was diagnosed as having had a psychotic episode at the time of the incident.
He was sentenced at a federal court in Las Vegas in December last year to a year in jail after admitting charges of being an illegal alien in possession of a firearm and disrupting an official function.
He faced up to 20 years in jail had he been found guilty of the offences at a trial. He had initially denied the charges but pleaded guilty following a plea agreement.
Speaking after the sentencing, Sandfords mother, Lynne, said the family, who are from Dorking in Surrey, were absolutely delighted and over the moon with the sentence.
The ecosystem of non-stop hate created by the Democrat Party and the fake news media surrounding President Trump is resulting in leftist fanatics being radicalized and driven to violence.
Yes, very uncomfortable thought.
“Mental health consumer” is hilarious—a great new way to insult someone!
One of my favorite scenes in that movie, LOL!
mental health consumer.

AKA crazy
I try to wait until their is a sale before i consume mental health.
their = there.
“Sandford, who has autism and suffers from mental health problems, “
So he’s a normal Democrat?
probably a Bernie bot.................
he obviously hasn’t ‘consumed’ enough................
666 ways...lots of “insurance policies” out there.
“Mental health consumer”??
I guess that’s the new PC term for nut job.
A 3.5 “ blade can easily kill you.
My thoughts exactly.
Have they twisted the use of the word "consumer"?...
I would change that to say.."mental health $$$$ consumer".
It never stabbed anyone, nor was it used to threaten anyone, BTW.
I have the same pocketknife. Came from my Grandfather.
Gracious. Times have changed. In my day, *everyone* carried a pocket knife; even to school. Perhaps your Grandad recalls the shooting ranges that were in the basements of schools in the 50s....and boys took shooting lessons; .22s were carried to school and left in the coatroom until the lessons began. NO ONE complained or had a fit.
