"My God, It's Full of Tards"

An Ethiopian man was arrested for making a joke about Al Qaida and bombs in the airport in Boston. The article doesn't say, but I'm assuming it's O'Hare.

What's amazing here is not the stupidity of this mental midget, it's the stupidity of the people commenting on the article. Without fail, each comment criticized the airport for over-reacting and violating this man's First Amendment rights.

C'mon people. Grow a couple neurons.

Most of the comments here are a scary reflection of the same stupidity that led this moron to joke about bombs at the airport.

First of all, the man's got no First Amendment rights. He's not even an American Citizen. He's an Ethiopian national.

You're telling me that you didn't know you couldn't joke about bombs at the airport? Your telling me that you think the First Amendment covers anything and everything your retarded ass wants to say? Before you show how stupid you are, I suggest you know what you're talking about first. This is the same retarded blindness that allowed a member of Al Qaida to say that he "didn't need to learn how to takeoff or land a plane", only how to fly it - and have that ignored by our vaunted FBI.

This is the same stupid argument I hear all the time. The First Amendment is not a cover-all umbrella for anything you want to say. You can't yell "Fire!" in a crowded theater. Such behavior can cause a panic and result in bodily injury. You can't say something anything you want about someone if it's not true. It's called "Slander". You can't write anything you like, it's called "Libel". All are punishable by law.

To quote Rage Against the Machine:

"WAKE UP!!!"
