AND, OKAY, HOLD ON. SO WHEN INITIALLY THIS MAN THAT WAS MURDERED TODAY IN BIDDEFORD, MAINE, MARK WAYNE MULLINS CAME OUT WITH A STATEMENT SAYING THAT HE WAS SUBJECT TO REMOVAL OUT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, MAKING IT SEEM THAT HE WAS THE PERSON THAT THEY WERE LOOKING FOR. SENATOR KING WAS. SENATOR ANGUS KING WAS JUST TOLD BY MARK WAYNE MULLINS. THAT WAS REPORTED BY AP NEWS THAT HE WAS NOT THE SUBJECT OF THIS WARRANT. HE WAS NOT THE ONE BEING INVESTIGATED, AND HE WAS ANOTHER MAN THAT WAS MURDERED, JUST LIKE LORENZO SALGADO. THIS IS ANOTHER TACTIC. THIS IS THE SAME EXACT TACTIC THAT THEY USED IN THE PLAYBOOK AGAINST LORENZO. THEY SAID THAT HE WEAPONIZED HIS VEHICLE. THEY HAD NO OTHER CHOICE. IF YOU GUYS ARE HAVING ALL THESE ISSUES WITH PEOPLE "WEAPONIZING" THEIR FUCKING VEHICLES, MAYBE YOU SHOULD HAVE SOME TYPE OF TRAINING WITH YOUR OFFICERS. BUT THAT IS NOT THE CASE. YOU'RE USING THIS AS AN EXCUSE TO KILL PEOPLE. ANYBODY ELSE AGREE?
