Man arrested for online threats against 'No Kings' protest participants

SAN ANTONIO - A man has been arrested after authorities say he posted online threats to kill protesters ahead of the No Kings protest downtown this weekend.

According to an arrest affidavit, 66-year-old Robert Flores was arrested after investigators identified him as the person behind a series of violent posts targeting the No Kings protest.

Flores allegedly used Threads to threaten participants of the protest in downtown San Antonio. In the posts, Flores wrote about plans to “run over” protesters and encouraged others to arrive “locked and loaded.”

One of the posts reportedly said, “I’ll run you f****** over and then go have coffee and breakfast at Jim’s Some of you will not return.

And yet, according to Been A Dick Donald and the MAGAt's, we're the ones who are violent.

Let's see, of the millions of patriotic Americans who came out on No Kings day, how many were arrested for violence related crimes? Or any crimes at all?
Why, there were none.
So far, the only arrests were Been A Dick Donald supporters.

Mr Flores is not white and fits the profile of the people Ice is rounding up. Go figure.

but I'm sure the ICEholes aren't interested in him because he's a raging MAGAt, hell, Been A Dick Donald may give him a job with ICE.

3. Someone should tell him that acting like white MAGAts won't necessarily prevent him from getting pinched by ICE.

I believe these are state charges so Been A Dick Donald can't pardon this MAGAt, but Gov. Abbott can, and I wouldn't put it past him to do so.

Thumbs Up. They looked away as if they disapproved of our protest. My husband worked with an Hispanic man who was so pro tuckfrump he was brainwashed and was major in the magaloon cult. The guy was so ethnic looking ICE would pick him up !

13. He must be a republican then. He won't care until ICE grabs him and shuffles him off to a detention center.

He used to jeer my husband for not supporting tuckfrump saying he’s a white man voting against his interests voting for Democrats!

What a contrast! There are pictures all over of garbage strewn everywhere after MAGA events and clean-as-a-whistle real patriot events.
We are completely different in how we conduct ourselves.
