The Justice Department has charged a man who squirted apple cider vinegar on Democratic U.S. Rep. Ilhan Omar at an event in Minneapolis, according to court papers made public Thursday.
The man arrested for Tuesday’s attack, Anthony Kazmierczak, faces a charge of forcibly assaulting, opposing, impeding and intimidating Omar, according to a complaint filed in federal court.
Authorities determined that the substance was water and apple cider vinegar, according to an affidavit. After Kazmierczak sprayed Omar with the liquid, he appeared to say, “She’s not resigning. You’re splitting Minnesotans apart,” the affidavit says. Authorities also say that Kazmierczak told a close associate several years ago that “somebody should kill” Omar, court documents say.
Kazmierczak has a criminal history and has made online posts supportive of Donald Trump, a Republican.
Kim Jong Un’s brother was killed by squirt guns filled with poison.
The shooters thought they were pranking him. Some guy gave them plastic squirt guns and said “squirt that man we are gonna film it for the internet.”
The real assassin was never caught.
Lots of women have been scarred for life by a splash of strong acid, primarily in the Muslim world.
Squirting someone with a liquid is a terror attack.
The key factor is “poison”.
Come on man, this is pretty fucking dishonest. You just equated apple cider vinegar with the acids used in those other attacks.
Well I also don’t believe in Carceral punishment so take that as you will.
