On March 29th, a college student named Allan Poller from Keene College in New Hampshire was charged with leaving a threatening voicemail for a Republican Congressman, who was later identified as Rep. Matt Gaetz of Florida, according to the United States Department of Justice.

Poller allegedly threatened to kill Gaetz because of his stance on LGBT rights in the voicemail.

He reportedly said, “If you keep on coming for the gays, we’re gonna strike back and I guarantee you, you do not want to f*** with us. We will kill you if that’s what it takes. I will take a bullet to your fing head if you f with my rights anymore. And then if you want to keep going down that path, you know who’s next.”
