Sorry, it's not even "funny ha-ha". I would've reported it to the Police myself. Too many people now with mental issues and too hard to tell who is legit or not. So yes. I hope he serves as an example, the little Idiot...........

If it weren't do you think George Carlin would have spent a day of his life past age 40 out of prison? So......drunken internet postings are now as aggrandized as a paid George Carlin routine ??

Yup, saying something scripted as part of a show is not even on the same level as drunken anonymous postings.

When was the last time you read newspaper or watched news from TV? This should always be taken seriously. Joke or not. You just can't go to airport, shout you have bomb in your backpack -> "Dude! It was a joke!". This. I don't even want the Freedom to do this......... Just too many people trying to be idiotic in the search for 5 minutes (15 minutes is so yesterday) of Interweb Famousness. And it's not even clever. The dude was not even posting anything political, or trying to express any kind of opinion at all about anything at all. Protect a violent threat in this day and age ?? Get real. Blame the terrorists for "sucking away your freedom", not the governments.

A near personal violent attack and verbal threat are not covered under The Patriot Act. Get real with the arguments please. This is the same as the dude who likened it to a George Carlin performance. Sheesh.

I couldn't even send my brother (who was an US Army calvary scout) WWII books from the US to Germany in the fear that he'll be fined for receiving them. In the US a book with a swastika on it won't have cops at your door. Germany it can. . That I absolutely do not believe. The military's APO service would handle his mail, and nothing to do with German censorship would have been involved. Get real.

We will, of course, wait. So you think the TSA needs to be in schools or listening in on gamers? Sorry, I know you probably thought that was clever, but you need to stay on the immediate topic for your jokes to make sense. Sounds like you enjoy a good groping and radiation bath at the airport. Nothing wrong with that, but I don't think it should be mandatory. I just knew you were not old enough to remember Sept 11, 2001.

"9-11 changed everything." -Sean Hannity, Fox News So I guess this is your way of coming out as a conservative? You draw the oddest conclusions. Conservative ?? Not this San Francisco fa**ot.

Robert Heinlein wrote an entire essay about why all males need to be shut up in barrels and fed through the bunghole until they are 21. It's actually quite convincing. Can be found in his "Expanding Universe" anthology.

Not this San Francisco fa**ot. Well that just sounds like a conservative line. I mean, who just drops 9-11 as an excuse for people being groped and x-rayed en mass? Sure Mr. Hannity and O'riley did it while Bush was president. They were partisan war mongering hacks. But surely you, a peace-loving anti-war liberal, who wants civil rights for everyone, would not advocate for such barbaric behavior in the name of "security." Because those things were not requirements before that date. herp-a-derp derp

Krixtal Icefluxor INLAND EMPIRE Galactic 19551	Posted - 2013.07.09 16:41:00 - [16] - Quote In fact, why does someone not re-work the quote into a legitimate threat and let's look at the difference..........

But he is a teenager, not a seasoned criminal that broke yet another law, so punish him like a teenager. And like I said, if he would have said the very same things in public he would have been picked up by the police, driven home and likely would have gotten some social work, but thats it. People just flip out because it was on Facebook. Yeah. 8 years in prison is a bit much, but he deserves something. Well, even if nothing is done, this is certainly going to show up and haunt him when he is seeking employment in the future. It is indeed ruined for him.....and by his own hand. Maybe the law should lay off after all, as it seems the situation already has enough appropriate consequences.
Krixtal Icefluxor INLAND EMPIRE Galactic 19564	Posted - 2013.07.09 17:33:00 - [18] - Quote Of course, it would be weird if an employer found someones EVE account, as anonymous as it is. But these same "kids" post on many other forums under real names. Also, it's fairly easy to do cross-checking to discover identities. And who knows what their access capabilities will be in the near future to actually trace back browser histories (don't even think it's not done). Wow. Will anybody under the age of 18 now actually be able to find employment after employers see all the nonsense they have posted over the years ? I wouldn't hire any of them. That's another problem with the coddled "everyone gets a trophy" millenials. They absolutely do not think even 5 minutes into the future.....and the consequences it can sow, and oh so generously too.

Krixtal Icefluxor INLAND EMPIRE Galactic 19638	Posted - 2013.07.09 22:49:00 - [20] - Quote It's a lost cause. The Entitled Generation is going to do what it is going to do. They cannot even write in cursive handwriting anymore apparently. It is no longer taught in most schools and that idea is spreading.
