So when political leaders make threats of armed invasions and destruction of property or the killing of people on national television, that's simply diplomacy and politics. When some guy makes a joke with "lol jk" on his facebook page. That's causing alot of fear.

Coming from someone that said "it's okay to sit 4 month in jail for that comment, they will drop the case anyway", that's funny.

No, it really isn't, we live in a society where genuine threats are made (and often even carried out) by organizations around the world to our livelihoods, be it external or extremist, or our own governments. And this is what you get jailed for making threats? Preposterous hypocrisy and double standard.

Except it was on facebook and was reported by someone who didn't know the kid. Look, if you want to say this stuff, set your facebook to private.
Look, I can't go out in public and say I am going to shoot up a school and eat the children's hearts. I will be fucking arrested, because people who don't know me will report me. This guy did it on facebook.

I remember when I was younger it was a fad to always say the opposite of what you meant followed by the oft annoying "NOT!" If the principle of Texas holds, we should all be in jail. But then who would guard the prisoners? Because they would be guilty too. This is madness.

So what's the moral here? That Facebook is given infinitely more power than a site should ever really have?
Bottom line though it's kinda pathetic that you can be jailed without investigation for something you post on Facebook, OR ANY SITE FOR THAT MATTER, especially when it has an obvious disclaimer as to its intention.
The internet is not real life. People need to deal with it.

Listen buddy, I don't know where you live, where you've lived, how you've lived or what you're doing on an online gaming forum while having such little experience with online gaming. But I can tell you from my long history of multiplayer gaming, and the cumulated knowledge of everything I've seen, heard and experienced, that this isn't out of the ordinary. Hell, with XBox live's CoD and Halo, with League of Legends and other such casual-competitive games, it's even more prevalent now than it used to be. I've seen people rage like hell, and I hold nothing against them, fuck I'm not ashamed to admit that I've raged like hell too, and not only once. But it's ok. It's ok to be upset when someone on your team fucks up, or when you fuck up, or when you lose. It's ok, because it's passing. It's called competitive spirit, and anyone who's ever been competitive in anything, sports, board games, gambling, you name it, any of those people will at least understand the sentiment. You for some reason, don't seem to. Therein lies the problem... I find it quite funny you think I have little experience with online gaming when we're posting on teamliquid.  This wasn't an in-game chat, this was on Facebook, which you seem to ignore for some reason. Oh you're right. It's on Facebook, therefore it must be personal and have nothing to do with very evident prior motives from inside the game... I guess everything our SC2 pros say on Twitter should be completely disregarded, because it's on Twitter, surely it can't have anything to do with the game right? Listen. I don't know why you're being so painfully obtuse about this, but this is only an extension of someone caring too much about a game, which again harkens back to my point about being competitive. It doesn't matter how he said it, he could've gone to the window and just yelled "FUCK" until his neighbours' windows all cracked, or smashed his keyboard into his monitor, it's the exact same thing.

If you consider threatning with killing kids as the least destructive option I don't really know what to say.
People commit crimes of violence for trivial things every single day in all societies: homicide, assaults and suicides can be prevented if people act on these cases. I'd much rather have a potential threat be in custody in the few days of investigation needed and seeing another tradegy.

It's not a threat.

Meh that kid is fine, albeit stupid. Lots of people are stupid at age 19 though, before life sort of straightens them out. The great irony is that 8 years in those worthless prisons may turn him into an actual threat to society. Sad.

But i actually do think you're smart enough to now that jackshit will happen. The police will pick you up and make a background check, that's it.

Not to go really off topic with it, but there have been numerous cases of the UK arresting and/or improsoning people for people saying stupid shit on facebook and twitter. At least this one in Texas is just morons thinking someone made a threat, not someone being "mean" online and being locked up for it. Just a few links i found.

Is dark comedy illegal now? It is if Texas has its way. These actions by the state are infringements on 1st Amendment rights. It's absolutely disgusting. You don't have the right to threaten people with bodily harm under the 1st Amendment. Dark comedy requires context, which facebook does not provide. You dont get this. You cant compare the internet to the real world since everyone treats the internet differnt than the real world NO MATTER WHAT if it should be that way. Fact is on the internet people act differntly than in the real world. If you go out on the real world and threaten people to kill or rape them you gotta be in trouble. In the internet it is a thing you hear everyday. Some people really don't seem to get this for some reason... I get it, i just don't agree with it, and that's probably why this story brings such joy to my heart. And what brings joy to my heart is that worldwide internet censorship is improbable to ever happen, no matter how much people like you would crave it.
I think it might. Lawmakers will catch up to the internet eventually. They're still so far behind because they're all old and stupid and don't get it. Once the people in charge are my age things will be different and internet behaviour will have the same or at least similar repurcussions as it does in the real world.
