Comment Not a Matter of Free Speech. (Score 0) 652
To say that a threat is protected under the free speech ammendment is rediculous. It's like saying you have a constitutional right to kill the president because you don't agree with him, and you did it out of protest.
If he had said, "I disagree with for , and I think s/he should try to fix it/ change it/ stop doing it by ," he would have been fine. There wouldn't be this whole mess. Maybe the teacher would have improved whatever it was that pissed the kid off!
The kid's an idiot. His parents are wrong to try to protect him. I, for one, agree with the judge's decision.
