BY NICK ROBERTSON - 09/16/23 10:39 AM ET
An armed man impersonating a U.S. marshal was arrested at a Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. campaign event on Friday, the candidate said.
Kennedy said a man with two holstered weapons carrying a U.S. Marshals badge and federal ID approached him at a Los Angeles campaign event on Friday. The man claimed to be part of Kennedys security detail.
Kennedy said his security identified the man and apprehended him until Los Angeles Police arrived.
Im very grateful that alert and fast-acting protectors
spotted and detained an armed man who attempted to approach me at my Hispanic Heritage speech at the Wilshire Ebell Theatre in Los Angeles tonight, Kennedy posted on social media.

(5,410 posts)protector of RFK Jr., supporting his anti-vaxx views.... thus masquerading as a U.S. Marshall....
OR, perhaps he blamed RFK Jr. for "not going far enough" towards fascism...... again, who knows?
It is hard to know. We have entered crazy time....
What is sure enough to me is, Junior is a case where "the nut fell very far from the tree"...
(maybe it was carried far, far way by a squirrel)
Considering all that he lost during his formative years, the disappointing result is not that surprising...

(5,410 posts)Judging from all of his public statements and advocating crazy conspiracy theories,
he has no 'standing' to mirror the martyr status of his father !!
(in a country of 330+ million people, there could always be one who could seek fame by murdering RFK Jr. for no other reason than his name--- but I prefer to see Bobby Jr. defeated in the Democratic primaries by Fighting President Joe Biden!!! )
