You know my methods

A student pilot from Egypt has agreed to leave the US after posting on Facebook that the world would thank him if he killed Donald Trump. Emadeldin Elsayed, 23, was not charged with a crime but the US authorities sought to deport him, his attorney, Hani Bushra, said. With his visa canceled, $40,000 in tuition lost, a Secret Service investigation and a month in immigration detention haunting his past, Mr. Bushra said his client’s dream of working as an airline pilot seems dashed. “I literally don’t mind taking a lifetime sentence in jail for killing this guy, I would actually be doing the whole world a favor,” he wrote ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Be careful what you say online |

Have no idea how people manage to read sh*t like this and not find it utterly terrifying. It was quite obviously not a genuine threat. A man has had his life ruined for daring to speak out against "certain people". And some people wonder how it's possible to make Gestapo allegories .

Hoping people are going to knock it off with the Nazi analogies soon, at least until Trump gasses 30 million people and invades most of Europe. |

Oh and also, AGAIN, who gives a flying **** if it's "like that in Egypt" or "Worse than that in Egypt". This seems to be a worryingly common theme these days. Insisting that something is good or acceptable on the grounds that something else is worse . Enjoy your race to the bottom. Last edited by Toy Soldier; 08-03-2016 at 03:06 PM. |

Oh gee I dunno, it might be something to do with the $4 billion military budget of Egypt vs the $600 billion military budget of the USA. It makes the prospect of fascism taking hold there slightly more worrying. Just slightly.

If this guy was going to really do harm to Trump he wouldn't be posting it publicly online. At the end of the day I believe what should've happened is that Facebook banned him, and that at most The Police did a checkup to see if his mentally stable.

Ridiculous and it'll only get worse if he gets elected, Trump sent a man who said his hands were small pictures of his hands for 20 years, imagine what he'll do with actual power.
If he's elected this will start happening a lot more to anyone who dares to speak out against Führer Trump. |

All hail the Moyesiah

So he was not charged with a crime but they were going to deport him anyway so he saved them the bother? This story doesn't sound right to me

..nope, it doesn't sound right to me either but there is very little information about it, this is all I could find... Immigration and Customs Enforcement said in a statement that Mr Elsayed was arrested because he violated "the terms of his admission to the United States." The agency did not provide further details.

DOnt threaten to kill a presidential candidate piss take or not |

I see this more in line with a general cracking down of stupid statements on social media than a race thing; the Wild West years of the internet are coming to an end and you'd have to be a moron to think posting stuff like that is acceptable. Deporting the guy seems a bit much but he should know that aviation and terrorism go hand in hand nowadays and that someone in his position is going to be under extra scrutiny than someone working in a fast food restaurant or something.

He violated a federal law. It doesn't matter if he was joking, if that threat has been shown to Trump and Trump said he felt threatened by it then that's enough for a prosecution, except in this case, there was no prosecution.
Anything that could be considered a real threat, is not protected under 'freedom of speech' and the 1st amendment. However, if this had been taken to court, the likelihood is, it would of been thrown out.

Trial by social media is usually frowned upon isn't it? Not when it involves people with money and power. If there is a case let it be heard and let the guy have his day in court. Democracy and the right to trial....No?
