I’m starting to believe they only tell us this just to piss us off. How about, have the US marshall face plant him and slap on the cuffs, suspend him from his duties until his court date is done.

This is something I was a little tiny bit concerned about when I first joined for Republic back in 1997. That is, you feel free to say crazy things like that because you’re just an anonymous voice on the internet.

But it was about 15 years ago that I started thinking about the real possibility that I could have black SUVs coming up my quarter mile driveway to arrest me for some silly thing I had said on the internet.

That is why I never, ever make threats on the internet even though I am sort of anonymous. I mean let’s be honest, no one is truly anonymous. And that’s the point

But also have learned to be careful, but children still think they’re on the ball field wanting to “kill” the other team. And this demonstrates why the left is most at risk for getting these kind of charges against them. When you’re not dealing with a battle between the right and the left. We are dealing with a battle between the adults and the children. Children do stupid things all the time. Adults, less so.

Andrew Stanton, a 38-year-old Kenosha, Wisconsin man, pleaded guilty on March 6, 2026, to threatening to murder a U.S. Customs and Border Protection officer, and he remains in custody pending sentencing.

Brad D. Schimel, United States Attorney for the Eastern District of Wisconsin, announced today that Andrew Stanton (Age 38) of Kenosha, Wisconsin, was convicted of threatening to murder a U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) Officer who was serving on the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s Joint Terrorism Task Force. Stanton pled guilty to violating Title 18, United States Code, Sections 115(a)(1)(B) and 115(b)(4), and that plea was accepted by the District Court. Stanton made his murder threat to interfere with his victim’s ability to perform his official duties as a federal law enforcement officer and to retaliate against him for the past performance of his duties.

...

Stanton’s sentencing is scheduled for June 18th, 2026. At sentencing, Stanton faces a term of imprisonment of up to ten years, up to a $250,000 fine, and up to three years of supervised release.

Yeah, there was actually a guy here back when the Ukraine conflict started, who posted about flying to Kiev and building some 'suitcase nukes' for them. Seems like he stopped posting after a while - guessing he had some kind of visit from US military police or maybe the FBI...

;^)

The original post is different than the story linked at post 5 which indicates he made a specific threat to a specific individual.

And nothing defines the left more than “childish.” They believe in Santa Claus, the tooth fairy, socialism and criminals are good people undeserving of punishment.

That’s because the leftists stop aging mentally after the age of five.

“I’m going to just have to say it.” A typical chimpanzee-looking, muzzie terrorist.

Kenosha, WI was one of our cities going up in FLAMES in, ‘The Summer of LOVE,’ 2020.

Lots of crazy Libtards over there.

Good on DA Brad Schimmel. He was a lousy WI SC candidate, but is a good, solid conservative who upholds the LAW.

I wasn’t aware that making threats was a crime. How did I get this old and bot know that?

When you threaten to kill federal officers, it’s of course a crime.

He’s getting “hard time for years” when he’s sentenced in May.
What you going to whine about then?

It’s Wisconsin. All he needs is a woke puke for a judge. Or some DEIish juror, and he’s home free.

Same Wisconsin that just found him guilty?
Same Wisconsin that just voted for Trump and has a Republican US Senator?
Dream on!

Wisconsin is a swing state which means they go whichever way the wind blows. Grow up.
