Racist Trump Fan Arrested By FBI For Threat On Obama’s Life, Had Bombs

http://www.addictinginfo.org/2016/04/29/racist-trump-fan-arrested-by-fbi-for-threat-on-obamas-life-had-bombs/

A racist Donald Trump fan has been arrested by the FBI after he made threats to kill President Obama. The authorities also found that he had a cache of pipe bombs on his property when they raided his home in Oregon.

John Martin Roos, a 61-year-old from Oregon, has been charged with communication of a threat in interstate commerce, and additional charges are likely forthcoming. Roos first came onto the federal government’s radar after a “concerned citizen” brought Roos’ Facebook and Twitter postings to the FBI’s attention in February, according to an affidavit from Special Agent Jeffrey Gray.

Roos also had a series of Facebook and Twitter posts with racist rants targeting the President.
“Obama you goat fffing fudgepacker, the refugees are men of fighting age. Black lives matter! Sure we need someone to pick cotton and wash cars. Paris, burn diseased muslim neighborhoods to the ground and start over with human beings. Obama you are on a hit list,” he wrote in a post that appears to have been removed.

He is just the latest in a line of people, ranging from the truly dangerous to just out and out cranks, that have been apprehended since Obama’s inauguration in 2009 for threats towards the first black president.

me and starts a conversation. After talking a while she asks me if I was retired, I tell her I retired from a local steel company.
She says isn't it awful what that Obama has done to this country. I asked her how that was and she says the steelworkers supported him and he shut the mills down. I told her our mill shut down because of the recession that started before he even took office. I said if you want to blame someone for the loss of jobs you have to go back to Ronald Reagan. Well she says she voted for Donald Trump he is going to bring our jobs back. Then she says isn't it awful we have to support all those Muslims he brought over here, he is a Muslim you know. I said I suppose he wasn't born here either was he and she said he was born in Kenya. I just threw may hands up and said that's it and walked away, there is no use even talking to those morons. That is an example of the typical Trump voter. Living in eastern Ohio and
the WV area a Democrat feels like some kind of alien.
