"Molon Labe" The Maine cop-killer is a full on gun nut

The guy who killed a deputy sheriff here in Maine this week - and is still at large - was a well know "gun enthusiast" with the words "Molon Labe" tattooed on his arm.

Williams also has the words “Molon Labe” — a Greek expression of defiance meaning “come and take” that has been adopted by some guns rights advocates — on his right forearm.

Everybody is around here is very spooked and this is the the main topic of conversation everywhere I went today.

Fucking terrorist....

It will make for some nice fodder when debating these crazy people.

and developed an obsession with guns later on.

I had to drive pass the scene of the crime and area of the manhunt today - everyone around here has had enough of the asshole.

With Deputy Coles late brother, and spent a lot of time playing at his house. In 50 years I've never seen Gene that he didn't take the time to come and talk to me. He was a good man. There are to many John Williams types here in Central Maine now. I've even heard of Militias forming in this area. And I think we have more confederate flags flying on the back of pick-ups than Alabama. Anyway I hope this manhunt ends soon and this guy is put away for good. Rest in peace Gene

Anti gubmint nuts hate cops as much as any “gang banger”.
