Conservative Arrested After Threatening To Kill School Superintendent

A conservative man in California was arrested for threatening to kill a school superintendent after a right wing group put the school district on a "watch list." The man was outraged after he heard that a student was fondling themselves in a classroom and was not punished, but there is no evidence - and no corroborating witnesses - to back up any part of that story. But that didn't stop Turning Point USA from putting the school on a "watch list," and this is the inevitable result. Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins discusses this.

A 45 year old man from California by the name of Randall Graham has been arrested for calling in death threats to con of have, uh, Kajo Valley Unified School District Superintendent Mark McLaughlin, leaving voicemail saying there's a hit on him. In that quote, we're going to put a bullet through your skull. Mark McLaughlin's school superintendent, getting calls from this deranged individual saying, I'm going to kill you of one voicemail said this. Hey, hey, Mark. Congratulations. You officially have a hit on you. You've been marked. I would not get caught walking in public. I wouldn't get caught going to work.

So why, why is this man threatening to kill the school superintendent? Why am I even talking about this? Well, because apparently there was an incident in a, in one of the schools in this district, uh, where one female student said that she witnessed another student in class masturbating. No other student in that class was able to corroborate this story. You know, you're looking at your typical high school class, depending on where you are in the country, anywhere from, you know, 15 at a minimum to a maximum of about 28 students in the class. You know, desks are all spread out so that there's really not a single desk where only one person can see it, and nobody else in the class saw this happen. But the young woman went home, told her parents the story, and then something remarkable happened. Not remarkable at all. Actually, very predictable.

Conservatives jumped on the story, spread it across their multiple different outlets and all over their social media saying that the school allowed a student to in class. This is what's wrong with our schools in America today. It got so bad that Turning Point usa, the group founded, of course, by Charlie Kirk, put this school district on what they call a watch list, and the superintendent, the one who received the death threat, were gonna put a bullet in your skull, believes that is because of this, because of the national, uh, attention from conservative media, because they were placed on the watch list. That's why this 45 year old lunatic threatened to kill him. We have seen this recently as well, not just with the school districts, but with hospitals where you have these nut job conservatives out there saying that all these doctors at this hospital in Boston are mutilating children's genitals to force them to change genders. They got bomb threats. They got death threats. This is where we're at

As a country with this conservative media that we have today. This is what they're doing. They are actively trying, in my opinion, to get people killed. That's, I, I, I have a hard time thinking that they don't want that to happen. They are naming names. They are doxing people. They are publishing false stories, and somebody is going to get killed eventually. Unfortunately, that's where all of this is headed. And those nut jobs, those truly deranged, psychotic, almost individuals in right wing media, they're the ones pushing this.
