A Utah man accused of making violent threats against President Joe Biden was shot and killed by FBI agents hours before the president was expected to land in the state Wednesday, authorities say.
While I don’t celebrate the man’s death, I am thankful that the FBI acted to stop him before he hurt anyone else.
I fully believe in free speech and open political discourse, but deadly threats of violence need to be taken seriously and acted upon quickly.
If you threaten to kill someone, you’re denying their right to free speech. There’s no free speech when you’re dead. It’s my belief that a person should not be protected under the same rights that they deny to others.
