Uh oh, you triggered the Republicans, so now you're either going to be brutally murdered, or nothing at all will happen. It's a weird system at the moment because republican view points can only be considered from Q anon posts.

No, he should be tried and convicted of making threats. Then he'll be a prohibited person for life (barring any eligibility for expungement).

Only if said threats result in a conviction of a felony or a year or more in jail.

Minor pedantic moment, but people seem to miss this: That should read "punishable by a year or more in jail". Even if the defendant just gets a fine, if the crime allows for a year+ it counts as a federal disability (basically it is a felony even if not called one).

Depends on what charges they bring, but I imagine they're going to throw the book at him.
