Source: ABC 15 Phoenix (KNXV)
Maricopa County Sheriff's officials say an arrest warrant has been issued for a California man who threatened to kill Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio.
MCSO spokesman Deputy Joaquin Enriquez said Caesar David Nunez, 22, of Culver City, threatened Arpaio in April saying I want to personally blow Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaios head off.
Enriquez said Nunez admitted to the threat saying he wrote it because of the Arpaio's stance on illegal immigration.

(28,498 posts)"If Barack Obama becomes the president in November again, I will either be dead or in jail by this time next year," Nugent said, according to a video posted on YouTube by the NRA. "If you can't go home and get everybody in your lives to clean house in this vile, evil America hated administration, I don't even know what you're made out of."
He accused the government of "wiping its ass with the Constitution you're living under a rock some place" and labeled members of the Obama administration, including the vice president, attorney general and secretary of state "criminals."
"We need to ride into that battlefield and chop their heads off in November. Am I, any questions?" Nugent said.
This is not the first time Nugent has vividly espoused his views. In fact, the NRA has a section of its website devoted to some of his statements, including profanity-laced comments and threats directed at then candidates Obama and Hillary Clinton during the last election cycle.

Or, how about...
Radio host Pete Santilli made shocking remarks about former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, claiming she should be "shot" for being "involved in the killings of American troops."
Santilli hosts a show on his website, but says he's "ready to take my show to national syndication; that is, of course, if the FCC regulated AM/FM radio stations can handle my truth & honesty."
"Hillary Clinton needs to be convicted. She needs to be tried, convicted and shot in the vagina," Santilli said, Right Wing Watch reports. "I want to pull the trigger."

As I recall, neither of these threats resulted in an arrest warrant being issued.

(56,996 posts)out of office), Maricopa county doesn't have enough investigators or jails to deal with all the suspects. This mean spirited person has generated a lot of Karma to work through.
