Federal prosecutors arrest man who they say threatened to attack this year's New York City Pride March with 'firepower' that would “make the 2016 Orlando Pulse Nightclub shooting look like a cakewalk.'
A Long Island man threatened to use “firepower” that would “make the 2016 Orlando Pulse Nightclub shooting look like a cakewalk."
After executing a search warrant at his home in Bayport, New York, last month, law enforcement agents recovered photographs from a Pride event on Long Island this year, two loaded shotguns, hundreds of rounds of ammunition, two stun guns and a stamped envelope addressed to an LGBTQ-affiliated attorney containing the remains of a dead bird, federal prosecutors said.
In many of the letters, he describes LGBTQ individuals as worse than the “bottom of the pig-pen” or states that “even animals know better” than to engage in same-sex activity, according to the complaint. "We are cooperating in any way we can, and we remain committed to the safety and well-being of the LGBTQIA+ community," she added.
