26-year-old Richard Clayton is in Orange County jail, accused of posting a threat on Facebook, saying he was getting his AR-15 back and to “stay out of @Walmart next week.” He was arrested at the Winter Park house of his family #WESH

Investigators with FDLE also say Clayton appears to “believe in the white supremacist ideology” and has a history of posting threats

Police say while being arrested, Clayton said he prays the arresting officer would be shot, said Hispanics are “what is wrong with this country”, and threatened to pee in the officer’s car. He didn’t, though, because the officer told him he is not Hispanic #WESH

Records show in September, Clayton was arrested for allegedly getting naked and swimming into the middle of the Clearwater Beach Super Boat Race (while intoxicated). Race had to be stopped #WESH

New info on what police say Richard Clayton posted previously:
-Pic of shirtless man, holding AR-15 & bottle of Knob Creek, next to a Trump banner
-Swastika
-Post about “ethnostate”, “commies and degenerates”, white birthrates
-“packin’ pistols and beating monkeys” #WESH

FDLE agent writes that because Clayton's post saying "don't go to #Walmart" came so soon after mass shooting in #ElPaso, he had "serious concerns" that Clayton was threatening to "commit an act of terrorism". #WESH
