Nicholas Roske, 26, A Simi Valley native who studied philosophy at Cal State Northridge now stands charged with plotting to kill a Supreme Court justice. He surrendered to Montgomery County, Maryland police officers outside the home of Supreme Court Justice Brett M. Kavanaugh.
Roske had a black tactical vest, pepper spray, duct tape, a knife, a hammer, a screwdriver, a crowbar, more zip ties, and a Glock 17 pistol with ammunition.
He told police he had planned to kill Kavanaugh and then commit suicide.
Nicholas Roske Was Upset About the Leak of the Roe v. Wade Draft Opinion & Believed That Kavanaugh Would Side With Decisions That ‘Would Loosen Gun Control Laws,’ Authorities Say.
Simi Valley Police Department Cmdr. Ritchie Lew told the New York Post that Roske had no prior record with the police in his hometown but for what the paper called “a minor traffic infraction in 2015.”
Would raising the age limit to buy a gun from 18 to 21 have any impact on Roske’s plan? Obviously the answer is NO.
This is an example of situations that no law could stop a deranged individual.
