FBI shoots and kills Utah man wanted for threats against Biden, Manhattan DA

If only you had the same rebuke for anyone else that wants to challenge or fight the police. Seems you are very selective.
Selective runs through this thread don’t you think? Many of those decrying this are the same that support police shooting them in other cases.

The FBI shot and killed a Utah man on Wednesday while trying to arrest him for making violent threats against President Joe Biden and the New York district attorney who is prosecuting former President Donald Trump in connection with hush money payments, NBC News reported.
Many other politicians were also allegedly threatened by the man, Provo resident Craig Deleeuw Robertson.

Court documents say the FBI described Robertson as a white man “approximately 70-75 years old” who was surveilled “wearing a dark suit (later observed as having an AR-15 style rifle lapel pin attached), a white shirt, a red tie, and a multi-colored (possibly camouflage) hat bearing the word “TRUMP” on the front.”
Robertson was fatally shot by at least one FBI agent at 6:15 a.m. in Provo, about 12 hours before Biden was due to visit the state in Salt Lake City No agents were injured.
“The incident began when special agents attempted to serve arrest and search warrants at a residence.
the FBI said in a statement. “The subject is deceased.”
The shooting is under review by the FBI’s Inspection Division.
A senior administration official told NBC News that Biden was briefed on the FBI raid this morning, ahead of scheduled events in New Mexico.
Barking dogs don't bite, oh what a sight,
Their noise may scare, but their actions are light.
With teeth on display, they bark away,
But their gentle nature will always stay.

Their woofs and growls may cause a fright,
But aggression in them is out of sight.
Their barks are their language, communicating loud,
A message they send, but harm they won't allow.

So, fear not the bark, it's just their way,
To express themselves, as they may.
For barking dogs don't bite, it's a common belief,
Their playful demeanor will surely bring relief.

Edit: Why did the FBI agents kill that old man? Self-defense? Or the order taken( from WH )? More details needed.

He was a grown man who asked for what he got by making threats. He could have had whatever views he wanted, but crossed a line that many defending him would not have forgiven, had Trump been the target.
