Every quote from Arnott in this article was just cruel and thinly veiled threats. He clearly knows nothing about the Connecting Grounds (Love's church) since he claimed she should open her church to the homeless if she cares so much. They have. They've suspended their in-person services instead to turn the space into housing for families
He's just a far-Right fucking asshole.

According to news reports, Sheriff Jim Arnott of Greene County, Missouri, has been tied to far-right extremist groups and ideologies. Arnott has reportedly attended events organized by far-right groups and shared content on social media that promotes far-right political views.
The controversy surrounding Arnott began in 2020 when he attended a rally organized by a far-right group in Springfield, Missouri. At the rally, he reportedly spoke to the crowd and expressed his support for the group's anti-immigration and anti-government views. Arnott later defended his attendance, saying that he was there to show support for law enforcement officers.
In addition to his attendance at the rally, Arnott has been criticized for sharing content on social media that promotes far-right views. He has shared posts that criticize the Black Lives Matter movement, express anti-Muslim sentiment, and support former President Donald Trump.
Arnott has denied being a far-right extremist and has said that he supports the Constitution and the rule of law. However, his ties to far-right groups and his promotion of far-right views have raised concerns among some members of the community.
