Craig was killed by the FBI for regime propaganda purposes.

“Former FBI deputy director Andrew McCabe said Wednesday on CNN’s “News Central” that former President Donald Trump’s “own rhetoric targeting” people “has an encouraging impact on people who are prone to violence.”

Discussing an armed Utah man accused of making violent threats against President Joe Biden being killed by FBI agents”

Assessment:

Craig Robertson had a big mouth; writing checks his body could never cash. He was mentally ill. There are lots of people like that running around and when they make threats against politicians on social media, the FBI starts keeping track of them. So far, so good.

Robertson was also physically disabled and could never have gotten into position to make the shots he was threatening.

The FBI knew who he was and what he was capable of doing. Which was pretty much nothing. He made rabid posts on social media which certainly deserved attention. He got their attention. They had contacted him before and knew of his physical limitations.

A two-man surveillance team could have been sufficient to prevent any problems during the visit of President Biden. A 300-pound man who needs a cane to walk isn't going anywhere.

But no, the FBI set up a show with a 30-person combat team and a 6:00am raid on the house. Then they killed Robertson in a "dynamic entry" and dragged his bleeding corpse into the street for the neighbors to view for the next two hours.

We all got the message.

Nobody who made rabid threats against President Trump ever got that sort of treatment.

We all got that message too.

They will terrorize opponents by picking off easy targets with a big show. It will work for a while. Then it won't.

The people who will do things that the government officials really fear do not post on any social media.

And the very worst threats will come from ANTIFA (tm) franchises which escape control of their FBI handlers.

Wonder if he was a FReeper?

I mean, you know, the way he bloviated online with respect to civil war 2 or violence, or posted about what kind of weapons he had… Keyboard warrior gravy navy stuff we see ‘kinda around here once in awhile… And are people here trying to claim him as our own or making up the T-shirts yet?

I read elsewhere that the Feds broke down the door, threw in an unloaded Saturday night special and a flash-bang, and then stormed in blasting away.

The after action report will state that the resident has a weapon at his disposal which justified the shoot.

NO, they weren’t there to *serve a warrant*.

They were there to provoke a gun fight so they’d have an excuse to send a message.

Sounds more like they went there specifically to execute him.

Indeed. I’ve known a few agents and other Zagency personnel. What a collection of egotistical, unbalanced, misfits. But they are a part of the DC mosaic that can be summed up as “Revenge of the Nerds”.

That, too.

They way they did it, in their minds, justifies their actions. And does send a message to anyone else thinking of stepping out of line.
