Now i really want to know if Trump did have more assasination attemps that his peers
If I were trump, i'd just pardon her
He probably has had far MORE than any sitting president
she'd look stupid as hell
and would be ashamed after
“Henthorn claimed ownership of the posts and exclaimed, ‘time to kill the president’ (and) ‘I mean it, I will kill him,’ according to Lipscomb. “She went on to state that as soon as she got her money caught up, she would travel to D.C. to shoot him.”
@Achlys I love windmills. But then I saw that movie The Birds as a kid, so that might have something to do with it. 😀
well thats literally calling for violence
A post Jan. 11 at 12:33 a.m. stated “(Expletive) Trump he needs shot I’m about to go Washington DC,” Lipscomb alleged.
Another post, from between Jan. 17-18, stated “Can’t wait to hurt president trump his days are numbered for sure,” Lipscomb alleged
so yeah thats a crime
calling for general violence is not incitement
you can say "someone should shoot trump"
thats not general violence
that a treath
that's not the legal distinction
Those are direct statements of threat
@EndangeredProdigy It is a crime to threaten the president even if you are joking or don't mean it.
they said medical issues
I prefer "I would never rape teh president"
Are you saying I cannot make a direct statement of threat?
I think orange man should die hes mean reeeee

The statute criminalizing threats against the President and other federal officials can be found in Chapter 41 of the U.S. Code. This chapter covers several different types of threat-related offenses involving federal government officials, plus related offenses such as blackmail, extortion, and receiving kickbacks from public works employees. For the scope of this article, we will focus on threats against the President, the Vice President, and other government officials, including:
President-elect and Vice President-elect;
Any officer next in the order of succession to the President or Vice President;
Member of the immediate family of the President/Vice President or President-elect/Vice President-elect;
Any former President/Vice President or a member of the immediate family of a former President/Vice President;
A major candidate for the office of President or Vice President, or any of their immediate family members;
Anyone protected by the Secret Service; or
Any internationally protected person outside the United States who is a representative, officer, employee, or agent of the United States and a U.S. national.
For a violation of Chapter 41 to occur, a threat must be made to either kill, kidnap, or inflict bodily harm upon the President or other individuals protected by this statute.
@Achlys You, must not have a sense of smell. 😋
lol
According to the law, the threat must be made "knowingly and willfully" and must take the larger context of the statement into consideration. If such a threat is uttered as a political argument or made simply in jest, it typically won't rise to the level of "credible threat." Regardless, defendants may not defend against such charges by stating that the threat was accompanied by religious or political statements.
brandenburg v. ohio
Did I read that the largest solar farm in the US produces less electricity than is used by the NY subway system? And all the battery storage capacity in California could power the state for less than 20 minutes?
one of the most famous case law on that issue
that's not pertaining to the president
