A Florida man who allegedly planned to attack an elementary school over its "obnoxious pride in America" was taken into custody earlier this week, according to WTVT.
Andrew Ivan Aman, 22, plotted to stab students at Bellamy Elementary School in Tampa, Fla., according to a document issued by the Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office on Monday.
He was motivated by the school's "obnoxious pride in America," which authorities said referred to a large American flag mural on the front of the building.
Aman was leaving his house with a kitchen knife stashed in a handbag when his roommate found out about the plan, in which he intended to "stab as many children as possible," according to the police document. |

Florida recently passed a "red flag" law. The question is, WHY?
"Aman is reportedly being held under the Baker Act, a Florida law that allows for a person to be temporarily detained for mental evaluation if they are considered a threat to themselves or others."
So I ask again: WHY? |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
"And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling in terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand? [...] The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt!" —Alexander Solzhenitsyn, The Gulag Archipelago (Chapter 1 "Arrest") |
