Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
1. *Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.*
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- *Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.*
- *Be civil, No violations of TOS.*
It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- *No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments.*
Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- *Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.*
- *No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning*
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
*That's all the rules!*

Re: the headline
No they didn't.
They are planning for future attacks because it would absolutely stupid and a failure of their duties to not, but nowhere in that article are they quoted as saying they think he will.
That might not seem like an actual distinction, but to claim they think he will act again implies they have some material insight and can discourage voters even further from attempting to use drop boxes; conversely, to claim they are anticipating future attacks does not imply any material insight and if anticipation is followed with increased security can help to assuage voters' fears.
Also, while this individual is clearly unhinged and stupid, it would be insanely stupid to try and pull it off again with all of the scrutiny.
I hope this fucker tries and gets caught in the act.
They probably do, though. One of ‘em called their cousin Vern and told him to knock it off-making ‘em look bad, an’all
Cousin? Feels like they were describing the guy as balding and one of their guys in the back said:"it's just short" trying to defend themselves. (This is how that line felt, and I thought it something from an 80s cop comedy)
Maybe he’s his own cousin?
This is the kind of person who gets caught while people like Trump never get punished for instigating the mob.
