PUTNAM COUNTY, Fla. (WFLA) — Deputies in Florida arrested a man on Sunday morning after he allegedly planned to “start a war” with law enforcement officials, they say.

The Putnam County Sheriff’s Office said Glen Ressler, 42, had planned to engage deputies in a shootout, in retaliation for having his driver’s license seized during an earlier traffic stop. His license had been suspended, they said.

The sheriff’s office said they received word of Ressler’s threats toward deputies early on Sunday morning.

He had “armed himself intending to initiate an ‘active shooter’ situation with deputies and planned to ‘start a war,'” the Putnam County Sheriff’s Office wrote in a statement.

A formal declaration of war must be approved by congress. That was his mistake.

What’s sad to consider is that whether this guy goes to jail or “work release” in Ukraine we the taxpayers pay for it.

Truly Sad. Like I mentioned. Maybe some of our latest warmonger posters here can join him. I’d better be careful. Their like vampires, they generally show up when it’s late, and begin their propaganda barrage about now.🤥
Mommy Dearest should be along shortly.😵

Another dumb ass who made threats and got caught before he could carry out his plan because he made threats. In this case it was a good thing, but just illustrates why you shouldn’t threaten stuff.

... in retaliation for having his driver’s license seized during an earlier traffic stop.

He doesn't look like a moron but he's a moron.

He certainly had the weapons to start his little war but now he'll have to re-buy it all, illegally, when he gets out of the pen.

Going to war after losing his suspended drives license? This guy is as smart as FJB and Heelsup, and AOC combined. Smart like rock, sharp like door knob. Amazing. 🤪

Threatening to shoot up the police because you lost your driver’s license isn’t conservative it’s down to the bone stupid.

YMMV
