Luigi Mangione’s cold-blooded murder of United Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson has garnered sympathy from radical leftists across the country. One man in Michigan was inspired enough by what Mangione did to issue an apparent threat on the life of a school board trustee in Michigan.
As the Daily Wire reported, school board members in Grosse Pointe, Michigan were left stunned after a local leftist activist threatened the life of School Board Trustee Sean Cotton.
Ian Seaman said during his remarks he was angry over the school’s policy on hanging gay pride flags in classrooms and there would be a price to pay.
Video footage captured from Seaman’s speech also shows him wearing a backpack, just like Mangione did during the brutal murder of Thompson.
“It’s one thing to say, you know, we don’t want rainbow flags in our schools and to have, you know, the people that you pay $60,000 a year in journalism salary to, to repeat the talking points, Seaman said to Cotton.
“It’s another thing to pay $60,000 a year, which is a teacher’s salary to a Republican action committee or anything like that,” he added before his remarks took an even darker turn.
“So, fortunate for you, I am no Luigi. But to some disgruntled teen with his or her father’s pistol or rifle, any of the other things you prefer in school other than rainbow flags, you might be a Brian Thompson.”
The audience applauded after hearing Seaman’s awful remarks.

Upon hearing Seaman’s comments, Cotton made sure everyone knew exactly what the activist meant.
“You don’t always have your life threatened right here, and that guy Ian Seaman, he absolutely just did threaten my life,” Cotton said. “From my exercising representative government and democracy and the First Amendment, that’s pretty disconcerting.”
“Seeing sociopaths like this guy, who referenced the United CEO who was murdered, and seeing how much happiness you see online to that murder, is pretty disconcerting where our society has gone,” he added. “And seeing one of these people come up here and publicly speak, it’s pretty concerning.”
Cotton went on to say that the Luigi reference was no mistake because Seaman likely knew his family previously owned hospitals in the region.
“While he did not explicitly mention my background in healthcare, it is clear he had done his homework, and I believe he likely knew of my former role,” Cotton told Michigan Capitol Confidential. “He ranted about my ownership of our community’s local newspaper and my political donations and was clearly very angry and agitated about my participation in the democratic process.”
Cotton then pointed out a fatal flaw in Seaman’s reasoning behind his remarks: Grosse Pointe Schools does not have any policies related to flags despite the activist’s assertions. No one has ever accused radical leftists of having high intellects.
Cotton went on to tell Michigan Capitol Confidential that he filed a police report after Seaman left the building.
No charges have been filed against the Seaman at this point.
