Teenager in prison for "Terrorist" threat.

Unread post by Dankaroma »

July 5, 2013 |

The nineteen-year-old jailed for making a "terrorist threat" after posting an obviously sarcastic comment on Facebook is now reportedly on suicide watch in jail, where he has been held on $500,000 bond since February.
Texas gamer Justin Carter was arrested after for a remark he made during a Facebook debate about the videogame "League Legends." "[S]omeone had said something to the effect of 'Oh you're insane, you're crazy, you're messed up in the head,’" Carter's dad Jack told ABC affiliate KVUE, "To which [Justin] replied 'Oh yeah, I'm real messed up in the head, I'm going to go shoot up a school full of kids and eat their still, beating hearts,’ and the next two lines were 'lol and jk' [all sic]."

What ya'll think about this? :katt:

Hard to really say. One on hand, prison for some words seems harsh. On the other hand, had he had really done it, what would we have been saying?
