Authorities: Ohio man posted about mass shootings, attacking Planned Parenthood, federal agents

Did this one even make the news at DU? I can't find anything in a search. I guess there are getting to be so many now that they all seem like one big, endless threat.

18 years old. Among his comments: "Hell, even the Oklahoma City bombing shows that armed resistance is a viable method of political change."

"Ohio man posted about mass shootings, attacking Planned Parenthood and federal agents, authorities say"



Ohio man posted about mass shootings, attacking Planned Parenthood and federal agents, authorities say
Updated Aug 12, 7:03 PM; Posted Aug 12, 5:18 PM



Justin Olsen

By Eric Heisig, cleveland.com

CLEVELAND, Ohio — Federal prosecutors on Monday charged a Boardman man with making threats against law enforcement, following an investigation that revealed he voiced his support online of mass shootings and lived in a house with 25 guns and 10,000 rounds of ammunition, records show.

Justin Olsen, 18, faces a charge of threatening to assault a federal law enforcement officer. Authorities arrested him on Aug. 7 on state charges and he was taken to the Mahoning County Jail. He has been in custody ever since[.]

Olsen used the handle “ArmyOfChrist” as his moniker on iFunny, a website where people can posts memes, photos and statements on a variety of topics. There, he told fellow users that he supported mass shootings and attacks on Planned Parenthood, according to an affidavit written by FBI agent Themistocles Tsarnas.

The threats included a June 2 discussion about the Branch Dividians in Waco, Texas, officials say. In 1993, cult leader David Koresh and many of his followers were killed following a standoff and raid by state and federal law enforcement.

Olsen wrote, “in conclusion, shoot every federal agent on sight,” according to the affidavit.

That is a suicide suit that was put on him by jail staff. They are made of small pieces held together with Velcro so that he can not use his clothing to hang himself.

Exactly *WHAT* has gotten white America so pissed off to the point where their only recourse is to shoot a bunch of innocent people?

Kid is 18, and clearly not destitute if he can afford 25 guns plus 10,000 rounds and his parents are sending him out-of-state to the University of Texas... How did life turn so bitter and miserable for a teenager who has NEVER had to worry about where his next meal was coming from, or where he was sleeping for the night?

I wonder the exact same thing every day.

And now there has been a leak of a WH document describing an EO in the works that will put the government (the FCC) in charge of Twitter, Facebook, and Google content ... because Trump and the snowflakes in the GOP are crying that social media is too liberally biased and doesn’t allow enough conservative content! So they want to censor the Internet! God help us ....

Tsarnas’ affidavit says FBI agents in Alaska began investigating “ArmyOfChrist” because of postings that supported violence. By March, the FBI noticed that about 4,400 people subscribed to his account, which showed a large increase over the previous month
