Lakeland woman was charged Tuesday after police said she ended a call to an insurance company with the words, “Delay, Deny, Depose.”

  • She doesn’t even own a gun and seems to pose little tangible threat, yet they’re claiming intent to commit mass murder or terrorism. Its a ridiculous stretch from that little comment

      You do realize that it’s possible to possess a weapon that isn’t registered to you, right?

      Why would you not take a person referencing a recent assassination and telling you that you are next seriously? I’d 100% call the cops if that happened to me when I was a call center agent.

        You’d only think it was a credible threat if your system was so fucked up the powder keg was lit

          Mass shootings are almost a daily occurrence in the US. Why wouldn’t you take the threat seriously?

          If this person had actually shot up a call center and the FBI was found to have said, “Eh, they probably didn’t mean it that way,” people would be equally as outraged.

            There’s a difference between investigating a possible threat, and attempting to prosecute. I suggest you learn it.
