Chilling terror threat against Pride event thwarted by police

A 17-year-old is in Canadian custody for threatening a mass shooting in West Palm Beach after an international investigation.

The suspect posted a threat online to shoot people at the “Pride on the Block” event. Authorities stopped the potential mass shooter before he could hurt anyone at Pride.

Deputy Chief Rick Morris spoke during a press conference, saying, “I can say through his statement that there’s no remorse.” The suspect was caught posting a video on Omegle where he was wielding a gun according to the police.

In the video, the suspect claimed he was a Palm Beach County resident. However, he was in Canada during the making of the video. Thankfully, the suspect was not in Florida during the recording on Omegle.

Your "hard work" at terrorizing and dehumanizing vulnerable people all through 2022 helped inspire this. When you make people "others" and portray them as "beneath" the masses, sickos like this 17 year old think it's perfectly okay to shoot them.

I do badly fear there will be a shooting at Pride event before the month is over. I hope I'm wrong. I really do. Hell, I imagine if DeSatan knew about this threat, he would've told the police "Stand back and stand down" and let it happen.

Throw the book at this punk-ass juvenile terrorist and aspiring Rottenhouse.
