"I will shoot Donald Trump Sr. AND Barron Trump straight in the face at any opportunity that I get!" she wrote in an email on May 21, according to an affidavit from a Secret Service agent.

"I am going to slam a bullet in Baron (sic) Trump's head with his father IN SELF DEFENSE!" she wrote in another email in June.

proof positive that there are unhinged people who have extreme and unhealthy views on either side of the political views aisle.

Divide and Conquer. Why are humans so gullible as to fall for this tactic?

Isn‘t Barron still a minor ? I think charges should be heavier with threatening a minor. Crazy.

I agree! There are 'the unhinged' on both sides of the divide.

Didn't she learn in her teaching days though, that the internet is forever? And emailing a school head honcho....with her threats? I am just dumb founded.

sigh..

She should be prosecuted to the fullest extent. Not right to threaten to harm some one no matter what side you are on. It would be great if this kind of rhetoric would stop from those who have a bully pulpit so we can dissuade some of these folks from doing this kind of junk.

Wonder if Trump would say this woman has free speech like he’s trying to claim in his recent indictments?
~~~~
I want to be clear that I think this woman was very wrong, especially about a minor that had no choice to be a public figure b/c of who his father is.
~~~~
Freedom of speech is not freedom from consequences of that speech.

I'm no Trump fan by ANY stretch of the imagination, but this is not free speech and she should be prosecuted.

And she also threatened to shoot his son, who did nothing wrong.

iirc, Madonna threatened to bomb the White House after Trump was elected...would this also fall under "unhinged?"

several things about Madonna I would call unhinged, and yes threatening to blow up the white house would be one of those things

I don't think this crime was politically motivated.

Barron???
I think this woman might have mental health issues.

"A former Chicago social studies teacher who was arrested for threatening to shoot former President Donald Trump and his son Barron “straight in the face” was allegedly also stalking the 17-year-old at his Florida high school.

Tracy Marie Fiorenza, 41, traveled to West Palm Beach in March and started asking questions about the former first son outside the elite Oxbridge Academy, police records obtained by the Chicago Tribune show.

A security guard who spotted her at the school called 911 on March 7, telling police officers she was a “known stalker of a high-profile student.”

"At Wednesday’s detention hearing, Rosenbloom said Fiorenza “poses a real danger” and should be denied bond. He acknowledged there may be mental health issues underlying the conduct, but said there were no conditions of release that could guarantee the safety of the community.

“The threats here are extremely violent in nature,” Rosenbloom said. He said in addition to the emails mentioned in the complaint, Fiorenza has sent numerous other communications to “a large group” of others, including government officials and celebrities, claiming she was being attacked by “bad actors.”
