Let’s get one point straight - so it doesn’t get glossed over.
What this guy did, was wrong. Based upon what others have posted, and you have added - this guy SHOULD be given his day in court.
But, you NEVER bypass the Bill of Rights, without due process. You wouldn’t tolerate stripping his ability to worship, associate with those he feels, have him forced to quarter troops, ect. As is, his 5th, 6th and 7th Ammendment rights have been bypassed - by a Police Dept.
His 2nd Ammendment rights, were upsurped by a group that are not empowered to do what they have done. The fact that this group has taken it upon themselves to bypass the Bill of Rights with impunity - is an issue in and of itself.
So, yes; this idiot should get his day in court. He should be charged, and given an opportunity to defend what he put forth.
And, similarily - the Police Deptartment should face charges MORE heinous than solicitation to commit murder. What this blogger suggested was the deaths of 500+ people; what the Police did was trample the rights enjoyed by over a Hundred Million people, rights purchased by the sacrifice of hundreds of thousands. What you do to one, you can do to all.
