Armed Man Arrested in Dairy Queen Wanted to 'Restore' Trump as 'King'

An armed man was recently arrested in a Pennsylvania Dairy Queen after allegedly telling police that he wanted to "restore" former President Donald Trump as "king of the United States."

Jan Stawovy, 61, was in possession of loaded firearms, including one that he carried into the Dairy Queen on Route 66, according to the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review's website. He was arrested this past Saturday.

The Delmont Borough Police Department said in a press release, obtained by Newsweek, that Stawovy told investigators that the loaded gun was for protection and that he wanted to kill "Democrats and liberals." Stawovy also wanted to "restore Trump to President king of the United States," police said.

His arrest comes a few days after a similar incident in Michigan. The Oakland County Sheriff's Office said in a press release this week that Igor Lanis, 53, was fatally shot by officers after he killed his wife and also shot one of his daughters. In a Reddit post, Lanis' other daughter wrote that "in 2020 after Trump lost, my dad started going down the Q rabbit hole," a reference to the conspiracy theory QAnon.

Thank God he at least didn't go on a shooting spree first before arrest this time. We've got enough of those in this country already.

A update on this story.

A Westmoreland County man is facing several charges after police said he wanted to "kill all Democrats."

Jan Stawovy, 61, took a loaded gun into a Delmont Dairy Queen and police said the quick action of an officer saved lives.

It was Saturday, Sept. 10, is when Delmont police said Stawovy walked into a Dairy Queen on State Route 66 in a yellow safety vest and rainbow clown wig. Callers told police he had a gun. Within a minute, Officer Gregory Stull was there.

Police found a loaded .40 caliber handgun and ammo on him. Stawovy allegedly told police he was "undercover" and he was "working to restore Trump to president king of the United States." He said he was armed to "kill Democrats and liberals" and to protect himself from "drug traffickers." Investigators got a search warrant and found two more guns in his car along with 62 rounds of ammo.

In looking at Stawovy's Facebook page, he has a history of outbursts and threats. In the past two years, Stawovy has been asked to leave two different congregations in Westmoreland County leading up to Saturday's arrest, both sent him letters that say he had outbursts and was threatening.

The New Stanton Assembly of God asked him to leave their congregation in August of last year and not come back to their property. Their letter recommended he get some professional help. Their pastor told KDKA's Chris Hoffman on the phone they have not had contact with Stawovy since he left, and they are praying for him.

Then, just on Friday, he got a letter from Barren Run United Methodist Church in Smithton. Their letter says he showed up to their church in a clown costume and scared congregants. They too recommended he get some professional help. Stawovy called both of these letters "love letters."

He also had photos showing his support for the former president, and he even had a post saying, "civil war in 2024?"

No. I think media emphasizes Republican-oriented lunatics over Democratic-oriented lunatics as if
  1. the latter does not exist &
  2. the cause of such lunacy is one's political leanings.
Either party can be supported for irrational reasons --and the writer(s) of such articles know this (and are cherry-picking their stories)!

Nope. We've got both far-right and far-left news sources. Any Democratic-oriented lunatics will be reported on and a thread will be started on these forums to discuss it.
