As for my thoughts- This is almost identical to the Joseph Jakubowski case. I will admit I am no fan of President Trump (before any potential MAGA fans get upset I am not the biggest fan of Democratic or Republican politicians and often vote third party). However, I also believe you have the right to protest the President but not to threaten the President and even worse in this case taking alleged actions to indicate you may be serious about your intent to do so.
No one on any side of the political spectrum should condone Christy's actions and he needs to be caught before he puts law enforcement, the general public etc... at risk... let alone the President.

Apparently Christy broke into Meyer's home. Meyer's brother discovered someone had kicked in his front door, stolen food from the refrigerator and a green 2001 Jeep Grand Cherokee with a black hood from the detached garage. Also, he was spotted on surveillance footage (photo credit: kentucky.com via FBI): www.kentucky.com/news/local/crime/article216431285.html

I sense this case will go the same direction Ralph “Bucky” Philips did 12 years ago.

I really hope not, since thankfully no one has died yet and going the way Bucky Phillips means law enforcement would be hurt. Hopefully it stays and ends with Christy just being a weirdo, but actually breaking into the house of the man he threatened does add new significance to trying to catch him.

Not the murder part of course, but in the way that he’s managed to elude investigators through the somewhat similar region that Bucky Philips was at large in.

Gotcha. Yeah he is somewhat slippery I guess since he's moving about the country and not in a centralized location like say Eric Frein was.

Read a comment from Dakota Meyer that he wasn't home- "unfortunately." Had Christy been home, I'm pretty sure Meyer would have been legally justified if he shot him. (Maybe the "unfortunately" just meant he would have kicked his butt- but I'm pretty sure it's also true that if you shoot a guy that has been threatening to kill you in your home that's self-defense). Christy's father is even telling Shawn to turn himself in, and that is good advice since it's not just the public but his own safety that he's risking. m.republicanherald.com/news/shawn-christy-seen-breaking-into-house-in-kentucky-1.2372286

Update: "Shawn Richard Christy, 27, of McAdoo, Pennsylvania, is now likely driving a 1997 GMC Sierra pickup with Pennsylvania license plate ZGL-2845, the marshals service said. The 2001 Jeep Cherokee he was believed driving in Kentucky was found Saturday in Nitro, West Virginia, the marshals service said." www.lehighvalleylive.com/news/index.ssf/2018/08/fugitive_who_threatened_trump.htmlPhoto of vehicle (photo credit: lehighvalleylive.com):

And the merry-go-round continues as now Christy is believed to have returned to his hometown of Schuykill County. While hopefully he is caught soon, I think the reason he's been a bit more difficult to apprehend unlike other breaking news fugitive cases we've seen is he's moving about the country rather than staying in one particular location or state. The stealing of different vehicles has probably also helped him, although that could backfire on him eventually since he'd be one random traffic stop away from apprehension. Right now he's possibly in the woods though according to the article. www.pahomepage.com/news/i-team-search-for-fugitive-shawn-christy-returns-back-home/1386034304
