- the_only_law 3y agoPerhaps maybe not likely, but there were some big stories about this happening recently, so I wouldn’t be shocked.

- JohnFen 3y ago> Did they threaten violence? It sure sounds like it to me, even if only implicitly. They were certainly being intimidating, and intimidation rests on the foundation of the threat of violence.
