According to court documents, the brothers were getting lunch in Virginia Beach when an off-duty Norfolk officer overheard their conversation on how they wanted to shoot ICE officers.
“These allegations of violence against law enforcement, the very ones who protect and serve our communities, are incredibly alarming,” said Chief Paul W. Neudigate. “We are grateful this information was brought to our attention. VBPD was able to work with various law enforcement agencies to assess the credibility of the information, leading to today’s arrests ensuring the safety of both our law enforcement community and the public at large.”

ICE Derangement Syndrome makes people do crazy things, and these brothers were overheard talking about flying to Las Vegas and returning with reinforcements. One also bragged about having an assault rifle that could fire armor-piercing explosive rounds.
Good Lord.

Quite a few commenters on local media Facebook pages are supportive of these guys. Several want to start Go Fund me pages for their defense. Is it any wonder Virginia voted for a slew of idiot Democrats a few weeks ago?
They look like golf club shooter Routh.
