I am in no way condoning this, but this is what happens when a regime tries to use the law to make its opposition’s leader an outlaw.
Let’s hope this is a one off incident, but I have a feeling we are in for a lot more disturbing stories if the FBI continues persecuting Trump and his supporters as time goes on …
Cassandra Fairbanks reports for The Gateway Pundit:
Ohio State Highway Patrol exchanged gunfire with an armed man attempting to break into the FBI building in Cincinnati on Thursday morning.
The man was allegedly carrying an AR-15 and shooting into the building with a nail gun.
“At approximately 9:15 EST, the FBI Cincinnati Field Office had an armed subject attempt to breach the Visitor Screening Facility (VSF),” FBI Cincinnati said in a statement. “Upon the activation of an alarm and a response by armed FBI special agents, the subject fled northbound onto Interstate 71.”
At about 12:30 p.m. local time, the agency said the suspect was “contained” but not in custody, according to a report from NBC News.
The suspect took off on I-71 towards Columbus and the pursuit eventually ended near W. State Route 73, according to a report from Fox 8.
During the chase, the highway was shutdown in both directions as multiple agencies attempted to apprehend the suspect.

The armed man was reportedly making threats as he attempted to breach the building, but it is not clear what those threats were at this time.
