Charged in Federal Court

[USFREEDOM911]

as I was saying. wordy and vague definitions don't seem to bother people when it fits their agenda.

I asked you if you could tell me what part was confusing.

I asked you if you could tell me what part was confusing.

did I say it was confusing? no, I did not. I said it was vague and all consuming, allowing people like you to readily accept it because it suits your agenda.

i'll end up pissing everybody off with this one, but i'd have to acquit on the weapons of mass destruction charge. a pressure cooker is NOT a weapon of mass destruction. end of story.

A pressure cooker was simply a component of a device used as an actual weapon of mass destruction.

A pressure cooker was simply a component of a device used as an actual weapon of mass destruction.

and given the definition of a WMD in the US Code I quoted, a firecracker could be designated a WMD.

John Mueller, who holds the Woody Hayes Chair on National Security Studies at Ohio State University, points out that under federal statutes dealing with WMDs "not only is a hand grenade a weapon of mass destruction ... so is a maliciously designed child's rocket even if it doesn't have a warhead. On the other hand, although a missile-propelled firecracker would be considered a weapon of mass destruction if its designers had wanted to think of it as a weapon, it would not be so considered if it had previously been designed for use as a weapon and then redesigned for pyrotechnic use or if it was surplus and had been sold, loaned, or given to you (under certain circumstances) by the Secretary of the Army."

The WMD designation would likewise apply to "all artillery, and virtually every muzzle-loading military long arm for that matter,"

And given the fact that 180 people were injured, many severely, and some killed, your argument is childish and not worthy of further discussion.

and some people get downright pissy when their selfish indifference is exposed.

I dono, whats the legal defination of a WMD?

Dixie has argued that a half a cup of bleach is a WMD.

 

[Jarod]

The Law that he was charged under will define what a WMD is, a pressure cooker might be one, depending on how its defined. Here in Florida a hairbrush can be a deadly weapon, if its used in a way that could resonable cause deadly force.
