FBI Arrests Oklahoma Teabagger For Twitter Threats

[Christa]

An Oklahoma City man who announced on Twitter that he would turn an April 15 tax protest into a bloodbath was hit with a federal charge of making interstate threats last week, in what appears to be first criminal prosecution to stem from posts on the microblogging site.

Daniel Knight Hayden, 52, was arrested by FBI agents who identified him as the Twitter user CitizenQuasar. In a series of tweets beginning April 11, CitizenQuasar vowed to start a "war" against the government on the steps of the Oklahoma City Capitol building, the site of that city's version of the national "Tea Party" protests promoted by the conservative-leaning Fox News.

"START THE KILLING NOW! I am willing to be the FIRST DEATH!," read a tweet at 8:01 PM that day. "After I am killed on the Capitol Steps, like a REAL man, the rest of you will REMEMBER ME!!!," he added five minutes later. Then: "Send the cops around. I will cut their heads off the heads and throw the on the State Capitol steps."

Hayden's MySpace page is a breathtaking gallery of right wing memes about the "New World Order," gun control as Nazi fascism, and Barack Obama's covert use of television hypnosis, among many others.

1. O...kay. He was willing to be the "first" death, yet he was saying he planned to kill people.

That makes a lot of sense...

These people are scary. As if Oklahoma City needs more blood baths. Thank goodness they stopped him. Of course, who knows what else he might go on to try to do if they let him go?

2. WOW, It was inevitable, I wonder if Fox News will

tell its viewers about this.

8. The moron Freeptards think he's a Liberal. Seriously? Ooh... they may be right though.Or not...

To: Cindy

The Earl Shaffer Hayden mentioned was the man he wrongly believed to be a tea party organizer and apparently wanted to kill him. This earl Shaffer says Hayden contacted him and knew things he shouldn’t have known. (Shaffer wasn’t a tea party organizer)

Hayden appears to be one of those mixtures of far out ideologies. On one hand he seems to support nazism but accused Obama of using mind control.
