Trump supporter arrested for threatening to kill YouTube employees
 

A Utah Trump supporter was arrested Saturday for allegedly threatening to kill YouTube employees in a series of comments left on the video platform over the last eight months.

David Levon Swanson, 35, was charged with threats of terrorism, a second-degree felony, and released on $100,000 bail, according to police records.

The charges stem from comments Swanson allegedly made on three YouTube videos.

The first comment, which was allegedly posted in September 2018 on a video dissecting drama around popular YouTuber Logan Paul, said “The only thing that comes after the death of YouTube is a funeral for all the executives that were rightfully murdered.”

In December 2018, he allegedly commented on another video, referencing tech giants Google, Amazon, Facebook and Twitter. “Their only hope of not getting their executive teams slaughtered (by gun) is to clean up their act and start following the spirit of the US Constitution," he allegedly wrote.

Swanson also allegedly commented on a video from Pewdiepie last month, in which the platform’s most popular creator urged followers to discontinue using a popular saying, “Subscribe to Pewdiepie,” following references made by the Christchurch, New Zealand shooter who killed 51 people.

"It's actually because the goons at YouTube think their ideology has won another victory. They see Pewds as someone that is moving further away from the religion they believe in (Leftism) and bringing millions with him,” Swanson allegedly wrote. “I'm not saying YouTube employees need to die, but I know they are at least as evil as any Of the worst groups in history because their hearts are evil and they happen to be wielding the weapon of the power of speech. They won't last much longer."

In another comment on the same video, Swanson wrote, “Get woke go broke, and when I visit your campus in two weeks I’ll be able to shoot any employees exiting, from the convenience of my car, because the First Amendment allows me a right to do so.”

Sounds Like a real nutter

He's one of the more normal ones.

So he thinks the 1st amendment allows him to shoot people because they ban someone on youtube?

when will these nutters learn that freedom of speech is only for government related entities. Any business can limit your freedom of speech if they so desire. What they can't do is discriminate against you based on gender, religion, race, disability.

Why are Red Hats always so fucking stupid and completely out of touch with reality?

Republicans manipulate the weak minded, insecure, elderly & disabled into this false storyline of an alternate reality to control their emotions. Trump supporters operate off of motion. They're not like normal people that operate off facts and logic.

Isn't it quite ironic that the very things that you can not legally discriminate against are gender, religion, race, disability and those are the exact things Republicans almost always attempt to discriminate against.. Then they try to hide behind the 1st amendment..


Republicans hate America

When will Trump nutters learn that they are not above the law?
