Stash of pipe bombs found in man arrested near ‘No Kings’ protest

Several days ago, I had stated that the political rhetoric by Democrats was getting people on both sides whipped up to the point that we were getting ourselves into a very dangerous position.  

Yet another report from the “No Kings” protest has me more convinced than ever that something very bad is going to happen very soon, far worse than we have already seen.  

Assassin 

We have already crossed a line with the arrest of Vance Boelter, 57, who killed a Minnesota Democrat and her husband, as well as wounding another politician and his spouse.  

U.S. Attorney Joe Thompson for the district of Minnesota stated, "Political assassinations are rare. They strike at the very core of our democracy.” 

By all accounts I have seen thus far, Boelter was an extreme right-winger who wanted to kill liberal politicians, but his motive in these killings has not been formally published by authorities, so this is speculation on my part.  

We all know how the media will play this, blaming it on Trump, but I beg to differ. I think the rhetoric by the left has been far worse, and it is causing people to snap on both sides of the aisle.  

Accidental Shooting 

There was another death related to the “No Kings” protests when Arthur Folasa Ah Loo was accidentally shot and killed by a peace officer during a “No Kings” protest in Utah.  

Ah Loo was unfortunately standing near a man who brandished a rifle, at which point the peace officers opened fire to take him out before he could hit anyone. 

Ah Loo was shot and later pronounced dead at a local hospital. The suspect was also reportedly shot, but will live. 

Again, we have no idea why the individual with the rifle appeared ready to open fire, but my guess is that we have another maniac who snapped due to the extreme nature of all the rhetoric.  

Pipe Bombs 

In West Chester, PA, another man was arrested near a “No Kings” protest, and police found something rather disturbing in his home.  

Local officers reported that Kevin Krebs was arrested for having a concealed weapon on his person near the rally. After questioning him and searching his home, they found a rather large stash of pipe bombs.  

Krebs reportedly told officers that "he wanted to go protest peacefully, but also wanted to be safe because of what he has seen on television." 

My opinion... this country is a powder keg right now, and Democrats are the lit fuse that is trying to make it explode. And for the record, I do not give the GOP or Donald Trump a free pass here, as they are tossing around their venom, but I just think everyone needs to dial it down because all these talking heads are putting regular Americans at risk to these delusional characters who take every word spoken to heart.
