That plan allegedly involved throwing an anvil through Ms Butler’s windshield while driving “because anvils regularly fall off work vehicles”.
WTF kind of Wile E. Coyote-ass plan is this?
In their first attempt, the perpetrators painted a mural of the roadway on a wall, but Ms. Butler continued her commute through the painting, foiling their plan.
Hahahaha oh my god
A search of her phone later revealed she had searched for “taser pain level, gun shops, prepaid cellular phones and how to get someone out of their house”, according to the affidavit.
The level of stupidity is absolutely astonishing.
And there’s so much more! Most inept murder ever.
(Read the article folks. It’s even dumber than you think.)
So a terrorist group?
Motive was child custody, not political.
Just ordinary crime from common criminals.
I agree with the sentiment of fuck these people, but unfortunately that term lost all meaning a long time ago.
It can mean everything from this to 9/11 to protesting without a permit and disrupting local traffic and commerce to hyperbole in partisan disagreement to anything our government doesn’t like from any other entity to literally any revolution including our founding one.
Terrorism might as well be a synonym for yelling “booooooo!” at something, it doesn’t mean anything anymore, at least colloquially.
In the rarely used in public discourse academic, definitional sense, no these people wouldn’t qualify.
There’s a massive amount of people who have turned religion into a political item, it’s not even a slight hop to read
Group calling themselves ‘god’s misfits’
and think that they were committing
the unlawful use of violence and intimidation, especially against civilians, in the pursuit of political aims.
It’s absolutely a hop because it’s not what they were doing. They were just a bunch of idiots.
Granted, that’s obvious with context, but conclusion jumping happens before context.
It is unclear where the two children were during the 14 days of the search.
Sooo…where are they now? Are they still missing?
It’s Kansas. Anyone under the age of 16 is considered missing.
That’ll teach the government…
According to prosecutors, Ms Butler and Ms Kelley had arranged with the grandmother of Ms Butler’s children to meet at a highway intersection in Oklahoma to pick up the two children - aged six and eight - and take them to a birthday party.
This is why custody exchanges between disputing parents are usually done in a neutral yet publicly occupied space, not either party’s house or the middle of bum-fuck nowhere.
Sheese. They sure the four hillbillies aren’t related?
