I doubt you will ever see it Salty because it will implicate the corrupt FBI
Neighbors described the man shot in an FBI raid on his home in Utah after he made threats to assassinate the president
as a “decent guy” who cared for his blind son but was the “type to sleep with a gun under his pillow”.
“I just can’t believe that this man warranted that kind of response,” Travis Clark, who lived on the same street as Robertson, told the Deseret News.
Others were shocked by the huge police response to the home of the 300-pound Air Force veteran turned carpenter, who walked around with a cane as he was barely mobile, according to people who knew him.
Local Connor Bunch said the entire neighborhood was shocked with how the events unfolded One day before Biden visited the state,
describing Robertson to The Post as a “teddy bear” who took care of his blind son, Sean, who is in his 50s.
“I don’t think he was even given a chance to even see a warrant when they went in and raided his house,” Bunch said.
“That was them serving the warrant but in the most spectacular way. It just seems like a tremendously unnecessary display of force.”
Bunch added: “It makes you wonder who will be next because there are no shortage of people out there who don’t say the smartest things online.
“Is the FBI going to bust in their door too with guns blazing? It just seems like a very inappropriate way to have handled the situation.”
“He would say funny things sometimes, but you know, a lot of older people do,” he added.
“[Robertson] had a hard time himself and walked with a cane, but he took good care of his son,” Bunch told The Post.
“He would guide his son through church and pick a seat for him, tapped his son on the shoulder to signal where to sit. Without his dad, I think he’s going to have a really hard time just doing basic things.”
Another neighbor, Andrew Maunder, described Robertson to the Salt Lake Tribune as a “harmless” old man.
“He definitely had his political views, which he was very public about on Facebook, but I think deep down,
he was just a cranky old guy.”
He also told AP: “There’s no way that he was driving from here to Salt Lake City, setting up a rifle and taking a shot at the president — 100% no way.”
