Why do these people never have to actually go to prison for this shit? If I posted creepy violent death threats about a former president, I’d expect to get a warning visit from the federales the first time I did it, and a few years in a federal lockup if I kept doing it.
Is it just that the FBI doesn’t want to lock up fellow Republicans?

Does anybody take these kinds of things seriously as death threats?
I have PLENTY of friends who expressed disappointment on social media that the would-be assassins in Butler and West Palm failed. It’s uncouth, but not criminal.

A threat is real even if you don’t carry out the actions you threaten.

Well, that depends on who the target is. When the target is the orange sh*thead, then someone like Kathy Griffin gets her social media accounts suspended and gets put on the no-fly list.

She sounds like the sort of person who should be kept away from children - also adults.

For much the same reason you don’t see Batman beating on Bruce Wayne.
