18 months usually means a felony.

From the article:"...Dallas police officers noticed Gedlu holding a “Kill Trump” sign and detained him as he screamed “kill the president.”..."

This dude's real subtle.

The article doesn’t say whether misdemeanor or felony, I would think threatening the President’s life would be a felony.

I just looked up Gedlu on the Forebears web site.

It says there are 33 people with that surname in the USA.

But it’s common in only one country and that’s — of all places — Ethiopia, with about 7,500 occurrences.

Forebears is a great site that will tell you a lot about what names are common — or otherwise — around the world.

Go there and type in your surname. You may be surprised at the results.
