They just arrested a man in Winter Haven. He threatened to shoot members of Congress and as many other people as possible. He said he had lots of ammunition and would hide out in a tunnel under his house.
It is amazing that he put these things on his Facebook page and thought he would not get into trouble because he did not mention names. He must have known that someone would turn him in.
I am so sad over what is happening in this country and it seems like people are going nuts.

The guy is probably just seeking attention, if I were planning something as sinister I wont go around announcing it and even telling where I plan to hide, good thing they arrested that loud mouth.

If I was planning something diabolical (I'm not) like that, I would never put it on FB. I never put much of anything on FB. You are right, he has mental problems. It is a big concern in this country because the mental health system does not work well. When the insurance ends, you are well and sent back to society and many people don't get services at all.

@akalinus It's not happening in the US only.In our country also the situation is not much different.People get violent at the slightest provocation.Today a man who was a auto rickshaw driver was killed in New Delhi,our national Capital city,by a man whose dog was injured by the auto rickshaw.People seem to have gone mad.

@Shivram59 He should have said he was sorry to run over the dog and that the dog got in the way and he tried to avoid it but couldn't. He should have expressed sorrow over the owner's loss.

@akalinus The killer asked the auto rickshaw driver to apologise to the dog.The driver refused to do so and got killed within minutes.

What was he thinking when he poated that. Specially, when your social.media account is public, it is possible that someone of authority can read it and have you apprehended foe saying those.

I think that someone read his rant on FB and all his racist posts and alerted authorities. They got an arrest warrant and a search warrant for his home and had him arrested in five hours. They surely thought he was a danger to the country.

Why everyone has to air everything on FB is beyond me. They don't have much sense do they?
