Okay, so it turns out, Alex Jones' felonious threats to Rep. Adam Schiff were "tongue in cheek"

[Leghorn21]

and "performance art":

In an article posted April 5, Newsweek quoted an attorney who claimed Jones’ comments may constitute a felony. Jones subsequently posted a video attempting to clarify his remarks, claiming he’s actually a leading proponent of nonviolence like Mahatma Gandhi and Martin Luther King Jr.:

ALEX JONES: We’re going to lose this fight for America if we get violent. I’m one of the biggest proponents of nonviolence, and Mahatma Gandhi and Martin Luther King. Everybody knows that.

Jones later claimed that his anti-Schiff remarks were “clearly tongue-in-cheek and basically art performance, as I do in my rants, which I admit I do, as a form of art. And they turn that into a premeditated plan that I’m trying to influence that chicken neck Schiff, who has made up all this crap about Trump and Russians, and has been caught lying. Saying that [Susan] Rice wasn’t spying. This guy is a loser. When I say, ‘I’m going to kick your ass,’ it’s the infowar. I say every day we’re going to destroy you with the truth.”

ALEX JONES: I just want to be clear: I mean no violence against Mr. Schiff. I know the guy's a liar. I know that he is an attack dog of the Democrats. I know that he's really trying to hurt this country so I dislike him, but I wish no harm on him or his wife or his children or anybody else -- so this is not a retraction, this is a clarification. Yes, I don't want violence. You guys are openly calling for it everywhere so I think then you should ask yourselves what hypocrite planet you woke up on when I say 1/10th of what you said clearly jesting and then you take it as serious and call for my incarceration for six years in federal prison.

All in good fun, see? And here I was, futilely raging over a piece of "performance art" - silly me!

1. I like that. I can now claim anything I do that might be sketchy ... as art. Protected. Kewl!

I have a few things I'd like to say about Alex. I wonder if he would think they were "art?"

2. Nothing would make me happier

than to see this evil prick sent to prison and bankrupted by the lawsuits of the people he's hurt.

3. Yes

5. Yes indeed! I was so incensed over this I called the AG's office in TX yesterday and the nice

woman who answered the phone suggested I call the FBI office that handles Austin area, so I rang them up and spoke with a nice young man who knew nothing of jones' threat so I explained as best I could...but couldn't email him a copy of the threatening rant so...oh well.

Meanwhile, jones was, apparently, explaining his penchant for art 'n' shit.

But damn, I just had this delicious vision of fughead sitting in his cubicle snacking on a box of Lil Debbie cakes, when - - creak - creak - creak - d'oh! Two Federal Marshalls stroll in his door, with that "creak" sound only shined-up leather boots and belts can make, you know?

Creak creak, motherfucker. "Drop the lil Debbies and put your hands behind your back, 'sir'."

At any rate, I'll be keeping an eye on this POS until further notice!

4. He sounded so brave, and tough.

Now he's whimpering and blubbering like a coward.

Tubby lying nazi fake tough guy bircher wouldn't do well in prison. Seems like a bit of reality broke through the haze and into his thought processes, there.
