The FBI gunned down a Utah man accused of making death threats against President Joe Biden during a raid on his home on Wednesday morning.

Robertson allegedly threatened Biden this week, just days before he was scheduled to visit Utah on Wednesday.

“PERHAPS UTAH WILL BECOME FAMOUS THIS WEEK AS THE PLACE A SNIPER TOOK OUT BIDEN THE MARXIST,” one of his Facebook posts allegedly read.

“IN MY DREAM I SEE JOE BIDEN’S BODY IN A DARK CORNER OF A DC PARKING GARAGE WITH HIS HEAD SEVERED AND LYING IN A HUGE PUDDLE OF BLOOD. HOORAH,” another post said.


The right is very upset about an elderly grandfather being murdered in his home by government thugs.
The left sees a right wing extremest with an arsenal of 20!!! guns getting what he deserves.

If someone were going to follow with rants like that, why publish it to the world?

It seems he was an attention seeker that ended up getting too much attention.

Always take the guy on the street in his car or when he gets out of the car. Couple agents got shot trying to take a pedophile in his house recently. 70 y/o diabetic walks with a cane? Really? I'd always worry the guy fills the house with natural gas, first shot sets it off.

queue the common phrase we've all heard and love....

Yeah, but did they shoot his dog?

Apparently, he posted pics of a "sniper rifle" and drunk posted several days before POTUS visited his city... I doubt he was capable of actually carrying out his threat, but reckon maybe he wanted to become a "martyr" by getting gunned down by federal agents... and he got his wish, dumbass.

They probably feel cheated he was not holding a grandchild. And Yeah, he wanted to be a Martyr, because you know that free speech is a death sentence by the state

In all honesty, I don't see his posts as threats. Disturbing and absolutely inappropriate, but my take is he was saying he wanted to see particular outcomes, not that he wanted to perform the acts. I think the difference is significant. One of these things is protected speech, the other is a felonious threat. We've all felt we'd like a criminal here or there dead - but that doesn't mean we want/plan to be the one to make it happen.

Now, posting a pic of a "sniper rifle" after making a comment that a maybe sniper would take out the POTUS this week starts to get a lot closer to the line of truly illegal; especially if the image was of one of his own firearms.

Bad situation all around.

I don't remember the FBI taking down a certain D-list celeb who posted photos of a mock bloody, severed head of a sitting POTUS....

But I guess a photo of a guy in his reloading room holding a rifle escalates the threat....

Odd how Madonna and Johnny Depp were able to articulate their desire to blow up the WH with a lawfully elected president in it, as mentioned Kathy Griffith posted pics of her holding an effigy head of a current president and numerous other celebs articulated similar.
