According to an affidavit written by a DPS special agent, Ozment allegedly called the Governor’s Office on the afternoon of July 25. DPS claims Ozment left the following voicemail (KXAN has redacted the profanity in the transcript provided by DPS):
“I don’t know which one of you sons of b—-es passed this motherf—ing bill to get this damn s— blocking my motherf—ing anime, but you whole a– motherf—ers need to unpass this s—. Y’all are f—ing ridiculous with your b—- a–es. My Google account says I’m f—ing over the age of 18, and your dumba– is passing these dumba– laws. I’m a f—ing stab every godd— one of you b—-es. Unlock my f—ing anime.”
Is every threat, no matter how plausible, considered terrorism, now?
That was always the point since those terrorism laws were passed. Any inconvenience can be articulated under that excuse and you can easily remove anyone by the same claims.
Everything working as designed.
Pretty much. The state has a monopoly on violence. They can threaten you, and use force, as much as they want. If you do the same, and they don’t like it, that’s terrorism.
It could be protected hyperbole, would depend on the jury I imagine https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/True_threat
