Comment on A kid in my semi hometown in arkansas said he was going to shoot up a wal-mart if we went on a hanta lockdown. He was arrested and everything. Can you really be charged fed for typing?

Let’s say you’re the cops and someone tells you about a threat. Would you rather investigate the threat and find that it was nothing, or ignore the threat and have to explain why you didn’t do anything about the mass shooting that you were warned about?

Depends was it from a 20 year old kid who only said that specfic quote once? Then probably not. If he went on with his normal game probably not would visit him and just pretty much write it off. Now if he went on and on and wrote a manifesto online and everything they I would do more the just visit him.

  I recommend looking into how much warning ACTUAL mass shooters usually give.
  
  I totally believe your friend didn’t mean anything by it, but assuming the cops would just feel the same way without knowing anything else about him is delusional.

    Please do not call him my friend. Do not hang out or have never been that pissed at something to take someone elses life. He was just near us. But thank you for the engagement
