It's not a crime to send death threats if they were addressed to a corporation and not an individual. Does that mean that if Osama had sent a letter threatening the World Trade Center it wouldn't have been a crime?

Oooo cool, I can now send death threats to congress as long as I don't mention any one individual congress person. If we started doing that I'd be willing to bet the law would change quick, fast, and in a hurry.

Under the threatening-letters statute, “the ‘person’ to whom the mail is addressed must be an individual person, not an institution or corporation,” wrote Judge William Canby, who was joined by Judge Betty Fletcher. Havelock’s communications were mailed to media outlets, not named individuals, the majority noted.

With the dems in charge they will change the law for the greater good, constitution - what constitution - lie about when it was changed and then arrest you.
