Original Note:
This post tags the Attorney General, which implies that this threat is illegal. Legally, threatening speech is only illegal if it is intended and likely to incite "imminent lawless action." A metaphor about bringing actual weapons to a bar fight does not meet that standard. https://www.oyez.org/cases/1968/492
