Representative Nancy Mace, a Republican from South Carolina, has spoken out following the arrest of Samuel "Roxie" Cain. Cain, a trans activist, was arrested and charged for allegedly making death threats against Mace. The threats reportedly included language suggesting an assassination. In an exclusive interview with Fox News Digital, Mace expressed her relief at the arrest and her gratitude to law enforcement for their swift action.
Mace stated that she had been concerned about her safety and the safety of her staff after receiving the threats. She emphasized that while she supports open dialogue and debate, threats of violence are unacceptable and must be taken seriously. "No one should feel threatened or intimidated because of their political views," Mace said. "We must hold people accountable when they cross the line and resort to violence or threats of violence."
The investigation into the threats is ongoing. Law enforcement officials are working to determine the full extent of Cain's alleged actions and motivations. Mace has pledged her full cooperation with the investigation. The case highlights the growing concern over political polarization and the potential for it to escalate into violence or threats of violence. Mace hopes that this case will serve as a reminder of the importance of civil discourse and respect for differing opinions.
