They set $100K bond and she could get a 15 year prison sentence!?!?!? That’s insane. Far far out of proportion to what she said. Obviously there’s no way she is any kind of a threat to anyone and they know it. But they’re going to fuck her over to make an example of her. What a dystopia we’re living in.

It feels like the elites “putting us in our place”. This is a form of torture, a sentence or threat of a sentence that is far too strict for the crime. Publicize it so the masses can see.

Feels like they’re trying to show us what happens when we get uppity with the billionaire class.

Hopefully I’m wrong. Hopefully there’s still rule of law, a judge throws it out, and maybe she can sue. Time will tell.

I think it will backfire on them. I think “the elites” have lost control of the situation, and efforts like this are just throwing fuel on the fire.

By attempting to fill every blank surface, moment of silence, or peaceful thought with an advertisement they inadvertently snapped off the consent manufactorum they were dangling from. Thinking it was holding them back.

More likely, she’ll get a 100k settlement for the violation of her first amendment rights.

She won’t since her next words were, “You’re next.”

“You’re Next” is a prediction, not a threat. She is predicting the potentiality of a copycat with similar motives. She is fully within her first amendment rights to do that.

Her statement was enough to justify an investigation, but it was not enough to justify an arrest, or the bringing of charges. So, I predict that she has a good case for a settlement, and I predict that the amount of that settlement will be $100,000.

She’s lucky. They could have sent Israel after her for those hamas-level terrorist threats.

The part where she said, “You’re next.” Still not ceditable and should get tossed out of court.

What fucking hellscape are we living in? Even referencing the strategy of billion dollar insurance companies gets you arrested? I’m literally at my limit with how insane this has gotten.

She followed it by saying, “you people are next.” that’s the problem. The title buried the lead.

She was referencing words etched onto bullets that killed a healthcare CEO.

The first amendment does not mean you can say anything you like, despite what people like to make of it.

Delay, Deny, Depose. You people are next.

Probably the last sentence

She doesn’t even own a gun and seems to pose little tangible threat, yet they’re claiming intent to commit mass murder or terrorism. Its a ridiculous stretch from that little comment

You do realize that it’s possible to possess a weapon that isn’t registered to you, right?

Why would you not take a person referencing a recent assassination and telling you that you are next seriously? I’d 100% call the cops if that happened to me when I was a call center agent.

The woman just means that the people she was talking to will be screwed over by insurance too.

She was saying we’re all in this together, basically!
