You could try another experiment: see how responsive the authorities are by doing fake terrorist plotting, laying out all your plans with time-frames, weapons to be used, etc See how long it takes them to discover the plot. Then you can see what communication platforms have been tapped by the intel agencies. Upon arrest, state you were running an experiment.
- groestl 4y ago> Upon arrest, state you were running an experiment. IANAL, but my understanding is that this is not how law works.
- cloudwalk9 4y agoIANAL either, but mens rea would be missing at least, if it's relevant for terrorism charges.
- kimburgess 4y agoIn general, “Psych! JK guys. You should have seen your faces” is not an advised defence.
- kneebonian 4y agoOnly slightly less effective than "These aren't my pants these are my friends my pants."
- cperciva 4y agoYou could try another experiment: Pack a fake bomb in your luggage the next time you fly. Upon arrest, point out that it was a fake and you were running an experiment.
- djmips 4y ago'Funny' riff that you made me think of is to do 'trash pile shadow art' of a gun in your luggage. :D
- dsfyu404ed 4y agoLots of people stick a gun in their checked luggage because when you do that the airline taxes extra care not to lose it.
- NoZebra120vClip 4y agoWould they really arrest people just for chatting about stuff? I cannot see an investigation building a good case without material corroborating evidence, such as weapons purchases, criminal profiles, movement of vehicles, packages, etc. etc. If arrests were made based solely on chats, how many kids running Call of Duty are going to get nailed, a la WarGames: The Dead Code?
