Police in Missouri have arrested a man for threatening to murder everyone — yes, everyone — Every. Single. Person — at the St. Louis Pride Parade later this month.
Law enforcement apprehended 49-year-old Edward A. Terry earlier this week after linking him to threatening emails sent to STLPride, the organization in charge of St. Louis Pride.
In one email, Terry, who is a registered sex offender after being found guilty of aggravated sexual assault against a 43-year-old woman in 1995, said he would “come to pride fest with my guns to kill every gay person I can before I kill myself.”
STLPride notified the FBI which tracked the emails to Terry’s cellphone, which led them to a home where Terry resided. He later admitted to sending the emails.

A judge set bail for Terry at a modest $20,000 despite being charged as a terrorist. He also will face outstanding charges of theft in an unrelated case.
Marty Zuniga, vice president of STLPride, said the organization works “hard to produce an event that is safe for all participants” and “takes all threats seriously and works with local law enforcement” to ensure this.
The Pride parade in downtown St. Louis, which draws hundreds of thousands of spectators each years, is scheduled to take place June 30.

So a Heterosexual sex offender who hates LGBT people and loves guns.
Gee, wonder which party he belongs to.

This liberal homo happens to like and own guns too. Your point?
Oh yeah. That’s right. Stereotypes and condemnation of people who have different opinions is ok if it fits your narrative.
Can we just all agree on one thing? This slimeball needs to be locked up forever.

@zimmy88
Really? And do you want them without background checks and to be used to make terrorist threats. Because that’s what this guy did. And the whole “Different opinions” line? Good Try.

I can guarantee you there are liberals that are psycho homophobes as well.

@Cam. And there you go again. Putting words in others’ mouths to try and make a point. I never said any of that. I’m all for universal background checks and for criminal prosecution of those who make terroristic threats, be it with guns or otherwise.
For a self-proclaimed tolerant open-minded liberal you sure spew a lot of hate, anger and divisiveness in these forums.

Wow. So crazy has a shit ton of issues but he chooses to focus on gay people. Someone’s been watching too much right wing propaganda news.

I’m very glad the authorities caught this hideous straight monster before he could create a bloodbath. Put his hideous, creepy *ss on ice for as long as possible.

Why on earth is his bail so low? He could easily bond out with a loan.

Look him up on Facebook, he has a couple of gay business liked, including a m4m dating site. He is not straight, probably out to punish the people who reject him.

Y’all haters shut up. I’d marry him tomorrow. He was obviously in some form of farming accident. Dude, what’s up with that head? Sue yo momma, I thinks she pushed too hard.

You slut. I’ll bet you watch movies like the hills have eyes like porn.

Please don’t waste time or taxpayer dollars, just take him out, shoot him, and be done with it. Maybe he will come to his senses in his next life.
