  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

“Any violence or threats of violence against any federal officer will not be tolerated. Period. This is unfortunately becoming a trend as radicals continue to attack law enforcement agents around the country,” she wrote.

Sadly I expect more violence if they don't tone down the rhetoric.

Who is "they"? From what I can find there is no information on the motivation behind his actions.

Better article. The man was not allowed in the building with the baseball bat. He came back without it.

He was told he did not have an appointment [with Habba] and waited in the foyer area for a short time before he stormed out into the public hallway and tore down two pictures that were hanging, the official said.

He then fled the building.

The official said the man never got into the actual prosecutors’ offices, which are behind a locked buzzer door.

You left out the part about the receptionist being behind the secure glass:

"A senior official familiar with the incident said an early review shows the man went upstairs to the U.S. attorney’s office and told the receptionist, who was behind secure glass, that he was there to speak to Habba."

OK, they were in no danger. Is that relevant? Have you been to a federal courthouse?

I've personally filed a lawsuit against a number of federal intelligence agencies, so I've spend some time in a federal courthouse. I've even been in a judge's chambers with a judge and numerous government attorneys. It seemed pretty secure, but someone with intent who doesn't care about sacrificing himself could be a real danger. People go in and out of locked doors, but a criminal could slip in. We saw weaknesses in security in regard to protecting President Trump.
