what does it take for a threat to be taken seriously? paul nehlen, a former failed congressional candidate and current neonazi mass shooting enthusiast, has posted my home address & pictures of my severed head numerous times. but this weekend's escalation concerns me.

this isn't altogether new. men like nehlen have long been making violent threats and then adding "in minecraft" or pretending they were "just kidding." but this is clearly, explicitly meant to as a violent threat to two specific women. he is telling us that he is hunting us.

i've been very clear about my unwillingness to speak to law enforcement. but i also live every day with the question of whether 11 people would have been murdered at the tree of life synagogue if i had reported robert bowers' threats. paul nehlen is going to hurt someone.

he is now claiming the posts were "satire" and referring back to an antisemitic meme he was trying to popularize last week in which pictures of jewish people were altered to make their skin blue, a reference to charleston church shooter dylann roof's manifesto.pic.twitter.com/KcSgzgE1wE

it is less about what he will do than about what he will inspire. here, his message is quoted & amplified by feuerkrieg division, a neonazi terrorist group that has seen at least two members arrested this year for making bombs. https://www.nytimes.com/2019/09/23/us/us-army-soldier-arrested-Jarrett-William-Smith.html … https://abcnews.go.com/US/las-vegas-neo-nazi-charged-plot-bomb-gay/story?id=64895586 …pic.twitter.com/fGuRZuayGH

JFC! This is terrorism and should be reported. As you said, he could be inspiring another Synagogue attack. He also needs someone is law enforcement to clearly explain to him how wrong this is.
