There is no possible way that can meet the true threat standard. Unfortunately, the cops will face zero consequences for violating her first amendment rights.
That’s because the headline left out the very next sentence she said, “You’re next”
Combined, with the fact that it was recorded, it’s a very clear threat. The rest of the way it was handled is pure BS, but there is no denying that what she said was a threat.
This is one of those post 9/11 things that really fucked over countless people. I used to work with the homeless and inconsistently homed and the amount of times those people were taken in for “terroristic threats” was obscene
It depends on the state but generally the laws were hastily passed post 9/11 and give the cops free rein to jail you for saying anything vaguely threatening.
Her 1a is like the least of her worries, but yeah rest of us should be a learning a lesson when speaking with your corpo handler. Police will fuck you if you lose temper…
This is what corpo tyranny would like and here we are.

Judge, it was a judge that made that decision. You know , someone that has way more education with an actual degree in law.
