First off, this guy committed plenty of crimes. He threatened the life of the Vice President, he committed wire fraud, he distributed child pornography, he stole mail (a federal offense).
Second, for those claiming that this guy got nailed to the wall because his victim was an attorney: maybe, but think about what his actions could have caused if the victims were less well situated? If the husband's employer hadn't believed him, and hadn't paid for a detective service, he would have been up a creek without a paddle when the Secret Service showed up at his house.
This is terrorism, plain and simple -- making people feel unsafe where they live and work.
- redcap 15y agoSo you just have to severly emotionally abuse someone and that's terrorism? I guess that means AQ don't have to set the bar so high. Yes this was a combination of criminal acts, but calling it terrorism is nothing short of hyperbole.
- StrawberryFrog 15y ago> So you just have to severly emotionally abuse someone and that's terrorism? Well, if you severly emotionally abuse they, you know, feel terrified.
- cglace 15y agoI guess homeland security should be called in every time someone feels terrified.
- StrawberryFrog 15y agoThat would be recursive.

- DougBTX 15y agoI was with you right up until you called it terrorism. The point of terrorism is political change through fear, this guy is just an asshole.
- Tomis 15y ago"He threatened the life of the Vice President," Oh my. The poor defenseless president. Besides, you're missing the point - he was impersonating a fictional character threatening the life of the Vice President. "He distributed child pornography". Come on.
