William Jacob Parsons, the North Carolina man who was arrested over threats he made to the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), has spoken out after being released on bond.
The 44-year-old was charged with "going armed to the terror of the public" on Saturday afternoon after he called for people to "overtake" the FEMA site in the town of Lake Lure amid ongoing misinformation about the federal response to hurricanes that recently struck the southeast.
When Parsons got to the FEMA site at Lake Lure, he ended up volunteering. However, the police had already been made aware of his threat and arrested him after he was found armed with a handgun and a rifle, Rutherford County Sheriff's Office said.
Newsweek has contacted FEMA for any further comment.
After being released on a $10,000 bond, he spoke to Fox8 and explained that he believed FEMA was failing to help hurricane victims.

The government seems to like that word “terror”. They throw it around pretty loosely. I wonder if they’re capable of “terrorizing “ anyone?

I am 20 mins away. The devastation in that area was nearly Biblical. Elons team corroborated femas “assistance. Everyone had a rifle and handgun at all times. Except the left coasters who dominate this area.
