18 U.S.C. 875(c) – Making a federal crime, punishable by up to five years in prison and a fine of up to $250,000, to transmit any communication in interstate or foreign commerce containing a threat to injure the person of another. Section 875(c) applies to any communication actually transmitted in interstate or foreign commerce - thus it includes threats transmitted in interstate or foreign commerce via the telephone, e-mail, beepers, or the Internet.

47 U.S.C. 223 - Making a federal crime, punishable by up to two years in prison, to use a telephone or telecommunications device to annoy, abuse, harass, or threaten any person at the called number. The statute also requires that the perpetrator not reveal his or her name.

federal law. right there.

I don't care how fucking old a thread is. I read it, didn't like what I saw, and said something about it.

so you can call bullshit all you want, but since om1kron clearly threatened bodily injury, he broke a federal crime, with obviously steep penalties as well.
