District Attorney Fani Willis warned Fulton County commissioners this weekend they should “stay alert” over the next month, according to emails obtained by CBS News.
She pointed to a threatening email she received last week with a subject line reading, “Fani Willis = Corrupt N*****.” The body of the email said, “You are going to fail, you Jim Crow Democrat whore.”
Willis said the message was “pretty typical” of what her office has been receiving and said she is aware of “equally ignorant voicemails” that have come into the county office and to her own office. She said she expects more over the next month. The Atlanta Journal-Constitution first reported Wills’ warning to the county commissioners.
Wait… Jim Crow? How does that make sense…
Which is pretty on brand for ignorant racism if we’re gonna be honest.
They see their GEOTUS being held accountable for his crimes as a transgression against their race, and all the “wokeness” as just as much of a civil rights issue as when people were subjugated based on the color of their skin. Add in the fact that the Democrats were the racist party 100+ years ago, and you get the tortured logic that Democrats now are just as bad as they were then.
Maybe they see Jim crow as a step backwards from what was around not long before?
Or maybe he’s living 1850s racism and considers Jim Crow racism too new and progressive.
Or he’s just a moron.

That confused me as well.
Yeah, this is why I don’t like being civil with right wing individuals.
Exactly. Tolerance is a two way street. It is not a doormat to do whatever the fuck you want with my rights and I have to take it
Log each one and track the addresses and charge them once this is all done
Charge them with what? It’s not illegal to be an ignorant piece of shit.
It’s illegal to be an ignorant piece of shit who makes threats.
I agree if there were threats made. The article doesn’t cite any such threat.
Why exactly do you think she wrote, “Please make decisions that keep your staff safe?”
Out of an abundance of caution?
The article doesn’t provide any such threat being made. I’m not saying there weren’t threats made, I’m saying I don’t know, because the article doesn’t provide that information.
Do you need glasses or a lesson in context?
Why are you being a cunt? Does the article list any threats or does it not? Can you read?
I’m not defending these assclowns. I don’t support racist idiots. I’m just pointing out that there aren’t any threats being made in the article, and the US has strong free speech laws - you’re allowed to call people racist names if you want to, it’s a protected right to do so. If any of these dumb fucks threatened the DA, then yes that is a punishable offense.
She pointed to a threatening email she received last week with a subject line reading, “Fani Willis = Corrupt N*****.”
Just because you didn’t get to read it, doesn’t mean it wasn’t threatening.
Yeah, I’m being a cunt (your words) because you seem to be seallioning.
These are credible and you just seem to want to downplay it.
So glasses or a lesson in context clues?
Yes I’m sure that will make her see the error of her ways
Aren’t there any laws in the US that threats against a government official are a crime or felony? Make the police earn their pay and send them after the culprits.
As if the cops weren’t either among these assholes or at least on their side.
Especially in Georgia
Not that this would necessarily make a difference, but I would think threatening a public official would be an FBI matter.
That is a problem that should not exist in the first place. But it’s America, so one has to deal with it. Maybe it will be necessary to get the professionals in, especially if the crime can be assumed to be crossing state lines in a way.
Yes. And it’s likely that the police and/or FBI are investigating. But, this isn’t a TV show. Investigations take time and there is no magic that let’s the police discover the sender withinthe first 40 minutes to allow another 10 for an overly dramatic court room examination.
Real life is messy, and it’s quite possible that there just isn’t enough evidence to locate the sender. Let alone actually prosecute them. Most crimes in the US have really low closure rates. Honestly, I’d be surprised if they mange to locate the sender.
I’m well aware that they won’t catch all, or anyone in the short time frame. But whoever they take off the road is an improvement for society. Even if it takes months.
The internet never forgets. Neither does Ms Willis. Most of these trolls will FA and FO when they order takeout and discover the DoorDashers wearing a badge and an warrant
Since a former president is involved seems like she should be deserving of federal protection.
