'Imma shoot them': Journalist arrested over threat to kill Republicans
2020-11-21

[THEPOSTMILLENNIAL] A left-wing journalist and Black Lives Matter activist was arrested after she threatened to shoot several prominent Florida Republican politicians on Twitter.

Karen Elizabeth Jones, 55, of Lantana, Fla., was charged with three counts of intimidation through written threats to kill or do bodily harm. Jones threatened Gov. Ron DeSantis and senators Marco Rubio

and Rick Scott on Twitter. On Nov. 12, Jones tweeted: "DeSantis, Rick Scott and Marco Rubio are looting my state. Imma shoot them."

Jones, a registered Democrat, was responding to a Washington Post news hound who had shared an article about proposed "anti-mob" legislation that would expand Florida’s stand-your-ground law.

When questioned by authorities, Jones admitted to writing the post but claimed it was a "joke," according to the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office.
