Absolutely ridiculous....

Come on, I know at least one conservative on this website that is all for the Patriot Act, it can't be all that bad, right?

^ There's one person I know who supports it... and he's not a conservative.

Speaking of gross abuses of power and violation of ones civil rights

Quote :

"Texas police shake down drivers, lawsuit claims Roderick Daniels was traveling through East Texas in October 2007 when, he says, he was the victim of a highway robbery The Tennessee man says he was ordered to pull his car over and surrender his jewelry and $8,500 in cash that he had with him to buy a new car. But Daniels couldn't go to the police to report the incident. The men who stopped him were the police. Daniels was stopped on U.S. Highway 59 outside Tenaha, near the Louisiana state line. Police said he was driving 37 mph in a 35 mph zone. They hauled him off to jail and threatened him with money-laundering charges -- but offered to release him if he signed papers forfeiting his property. "

....

Quote :

"Like Daniels, the couple says they were carrying a large amount of cash --- about $6,000 -- to buy a car. When they were stopped in Tenaha in 2007, Boatright said, Russell came to the Tenaha police station to berate her and threaten to separate the family. "

...

Quote :

"Maryland resident Amanee Busbee said she also was threatened with losing custody of her child after being stopped in Tenaha with her fiancé and his business partner. They were headed to Houston with $50,000 to complete the purchase of a restaurant, she said. "

Yay United States of Freedom Fascism

I can not believe all the stories I have heard about otherwise innocent civilians having their cash seized as police are all to
happy to label our fellow citizens Guilty until proven innocent as to if their money is legit or drug money. Apparently anyone that chooses
to carry a large sum of cash, perhaps choosing to not support the banking credit institutions by using credit/debit cards, is automatically a drug dealer.

The first video was scary, but something tells me we're not getting the whole picture here.

The guy talking in the second video was a goober. I found it difficult to care what he was talking about.

"I don't believe in guns."

It's her right not to believe in guns just as much as it's your right to believe in them.

5/6/2009 12:20:35 PM

I don't believe in knives either. THEY JUST DON'T EXIST!!!!

5/6/2009 12:35:21 PM

yea when ever someone says they dont believe in a physical concept it makes me roll my eyes. You can not believe in gun ownership, but you cant not believe in guns. Semantics i guess but it makes you sound like an idiot.

5/6/2009 12:59:58 PM

it's called ellipsis. and you sound dumb for caring about it.

looks like the homeschooled little fucker deserved it and his mom is a liar

Quote :

"Lundeby insists the “Tyrone” on the recording must be a different prank caller using her son’s online handle and e-mail address. “I’ve asked him about this and he doesn’t know anything about it,” she says. “There are other people who sound like him.”"

what? i thought you haven't had any contact with him?

Quote :

"Much of the online fury was triggered by Lundeby’s incorrect claim — uncritically reported by the station — that the boy was being held without any legal rights on the authority of the 2001 USA Patriot Act. In truth, making telephone bomb threats has been a federal crime since 1939. The teenager is being held without bail in Indiana, but he’s been formally charged, has a court-appointed attorney, and has already made three appearances in front of a judge. The case is sealed because the suspect is a minor."

Quote :

"Responding to the internet outrage on Thursday, the U.S. attorney’s office for the Northern District of Indiana issued a press release (.pdf) emphasizing the the teenager is not being held on terrorism charges. The case “alleges a violation of Title 18, United States Code, Section 844(e), which prohibits sending false information about an attempt to kill, injure or intimidate any individual or to unlawfully to damage any building through an instrument of interstate commerce,” the prosecutors wrote."

WRAL is retarded. the mother is retarded. the kid is retarded. fuck 'em

Interesting. As they say, the news isn't what happens, it is what other people says happens.

5/7/2009 8:54:10 PM

so all of a sudden she's a computer expert and knows exactly how someone stole her son's IP address and used it to make threats? ahahhaa

and she seems to know a little about bombs - her first thought were blasting caps then wires. when I think bombs, the first I think is an explosive material....

not saying they're turrists... just saying her story ain't quite right...

yeah, everyone who read the link two posts above knows that

5/8/2009 4:21:32 PM

I know this story has been floating around but I just skimmed it assuming the kid fucked up somewhere along the way and is paying dearly for his stupidity.

5/12/2009 12:58:16 AM

Just read the Wired article and I agree:

Can this thread be locked or the title changed from Patriot Act Case to local douchebag teenager gets what he deserves and mom tries to cover up for him?

5/12/2009 11:23:13 AM

So, did he actually make plans to bomb the school or didn't he? While making verbal threats deserves time in juvey, I don't think years would be appropriate unless he actually started making bombs.

5/12/2009 2:09:44 PM

Bomb threats, schools, across state lines. Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but wouldn't that be a federal crime?

5/13/2009 10:10:55 AM

yea it is.

5/13/2009 11:00:55 AM

It is. The kid is a punk and the mom is a borderline cunt.


That being said, the second video is still valid
