VIDEO: Homeowner says woman threatened to blow up his house after calling his decorations pro-Trump; he says they were for July 4th
An Oklahoma man says a woman threatened to blow up his home over decorations she believed were pro-Trump, but he says they were merely patriotic Fourth of July decorations.
Pascal Quintero provided video of the bizarre altercation to KFOR-TV from his house in Moore.
A video from Ring shows the woman get out of her black Toyota 4Runner and ring the home's doorbell on July 8.
“She started to ask me if I am Republican because of the American decorations,” Quintero said to KFOR. “I told her that it’s none of her business who I voted for. She continued questioning me about the decorations and then asked if I was a Trump fan.”
The decorations don't mention or depict former President Donald Trump at all and instead show the U.S. flag. One decoration includes an inflatable Uncle Sam riding a firecracker.
Quintero said he told the woman to get away from his house.
“I live with my mother, who is elderly, and my son, who has special needs,” said Quintero. “My family comes first, and she’s lucky I only used words in that moment.”
The video captures the woman jumping up and down and demanding that Quintero shoot her.
“She was daring me to shoot her, and at one point I asked why I would shoot her,” said Quintero. “She then says, 'I’m coming back to blow your house up.' I am like, 'Are you threatening me? You’re going to blow my house up?' She said, 'Yes, I’m coming back, so you’d better be ready.'"
Neighbors told KFOR that they supported Quintero's right to display whatever decorations he wanted.
“I would say that is terrorism, but that’s just me,” Jason Sumrall said about the woman who allegedly threatened his neighbor. “I have generations of family members who have fought in several different wars. It’s just stupid to me that someone could be offended by something so normal and casual.”
Quintero filed a report with the police but says that the incident has left him shaken.
“Imagine, every time I go to care for my lawn or go outside, I’m hoping that someone isn’t going to drive by and shoot at us or come at us because we decorate our house,” he added.
Moore police are asking for help from the public to identify the woman.
