Piked for an hour?

Dude made online death threats against Biden and NY DA Alvin Bragg (and maybe others). FBI tried to talk to him back in March and he told them to get a warrant. After that encounter he posted on his Facebook account:

To my friends in the Federal Bureau of Idiots:
I know you're reading this and you have no idea how close your agents came to "violent eradication"

A couple of days ago he posted this:

I hear Biden is coming to Utah. Digging out my hold Ghille suit and cleaning the dust off the M24 sniper rifle

FBI went to serve an arrest and search warrant this morning and it resulted in his death.

Local deznat Twitter is describing him as in his 70's and a "sweet guy" and a long-time ward financial clerk. No acknowledgement of his apparent history of online violent threats.

Here's a local news article.

If you “F” around and make death threats against the president in the days leading up to the president's publicized visit a handful of miles away from your home, this is one of the possible ways you find out how bad of an idea that is.

EDIT: His name has been made public but I'm not going to mention here. But that means his Facebook page has already been viewed by a lot of people. Looks like he's posted photos of himself on Facebook in tactical gear and holding apparently high-powered rifles. So there was at least some reason to believe he had the means to carry out these threats.

EDIT 2: Did a bit more digging and, in addition to his violent rhetoric aimed exclusively at political figures in the Democratic party, it appears his online persona was quite racist as well....
