So what’s he going to do if somebody doesn’t like someone else. Put them in bigot jail and take their guns? What if someone doesn’t like white people. Do they go job bigot jail to or are you just taking guns from dealer and changing license. Omg.

By aggressively targeting donors of the opposing party and releasing their names to his followers so they’d know who to harass?

Irrelevant twit circling the drain with half a dozen other Democrat twits. Castro and his low-IQ brother need to be flushed out of politics. Both are a menace to public safety.

Is this also the guy that published a harassment list of people that gave his opponent campaign contributions?
