An employee at the gun store claimed White “said that ICE agents were becoming crazy and wild and that she needed a gun because she was a protester and activist.”

She began asking questions about body armor and the employee talked with her, trying to ascertain what she actually intended. White then allegedly said she assumed if the agents were wearing body armor she would have to shoot them in the head, shoulder, or leg.

The employee told White she would probably find herself at gunpoint if she tried to do what she was describing, and she allegedly replied, "If I have to die, I have to die.”

Hoodline New Orleans noted that Homeland Security Investigations agents visited the gun store and interviewed witnesses then arrested White.
