Ex-NFL player threatens Eric Swalwell with Guantanamo or execution.

Former NFL Player Threatens Rep. Eric Swalwell on Twitter

Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA) recently reported former San Francisco 49ers fullback Bruce Miller to U.S. Capitol Police after Miller allegedly sent him a threatening message on Twitter. The message read, “Almost time!!! Would you rather Guantanamo or just execution. F***in’ traitor.”

Swalwell took to Twitter to express his concern, asking, “Who is this guy threatening to execute me? And how does he have so many followers?”

Sports writer Rich Madrid responded to Swalwell, revealing that Miller was a former pro football player for the 49ers who was cut from the team for beating up a 70-year-old man in a sandwich shop.

Miller later responded to Swalwell on Twitter, denying that his message was a threat and accusing the politician of being a traitor to the country. He also criticized Swalwell’s leadership and accused him of being part of the corrupt establishment that is destroying the country.

The 49ers Respond

After Swalwell reported the threat, the 49ers reached out to him to express their concern. Swalwell, a lifelong member of The Faithful, appreciated the team’s support.

It’s important to take threats like this seriously, and Swalwell’s decision to report the incident to the authorities was the right one. It’s also important to remember that words have consequences, and threatening messages like the one Miller sent are never acceptable.

Conclusion

As Americans, we have the right to express our opinions and engage in political discourse. However, we must do so in a respectful and civil manner. Threatening messages like the one Miller sent to Swalwell have no place in our political discourse and only serve to undermine our democracy.
