Your affiant asked Boston if she used the phrase “Delay, Deny, Depose. You people are next.” during her call earlier today with BlueCross BlueShield to which she acknowledged she said it and apologized. Boston stated she used those words because it’s what is in the news right now. Boston advised she learned of the phrase because of the current events regarding the UnitedHeathcare homicide. Boston stated she did not own any firearms, and she was not a danger to anyone. Boston further stated the healthcare companies played games and deserved karma from the world because they are evil.
Wouldn’t you be more comfortable on .world with the rest of the class traitors?
Excuse me? Just what do you think “it’s unjust” means?
I’m not saying it’s right she’s arrested, but we live in a state that values the lives of the wealthy over the rights of the proles. Of course she’s going to get arrested for parroting threats against the wealthy, they’re scared now and the police serve their interests over those of the public.
I’m not a class traitor for noticing that. If you make threats against the state, the state is going to take action against you.
A death threat is a death threat.
You don’t make death threats on record like she did. You send an anonymous letter with the words made up of cut out letters from magazines and newspapers then pasted on the paper, being careful not to leave any prints or DNA.
Yeah, obviously stupid to do it in a way that could be tied back to you, but this is constitutionally protected speech.
The supreme court ruled in Virginia v Black that only “statements where the speaker means to communicate a serious expression of an intent to commit an act of unlawful violence to a particular individual or group of individuals.” are unlawful, and this doesn’t communicate an intent to commit violence, just that someone should.
She said “you’re next” very obviously referring to the murder of the United Health CEO. If that’s not a direct that, I don’t know what is.
The supreme court has defined legally actionable threats extremely narrowly. Yeah that’s a pretty direct threat, but I don’t think it meets the legal standard of a “true threat”
In NAACP v. Claiborne Hardware Co. The Supreme Court ruled someone saying “If we catch any of you going into these racist stores, we’re going to break your damn neck.” was protected speech.
That’s more direct than her threat.
There’s an insanely high standard for convicting someone over a threat.
Lol, I think the magazine letters would tip them off. When is the last time you read a physical magazine or had access to one?
I was gonna say to print different web pages, but apparently printers have fingerprints that can tie the printed material directly to the unique printer.
Settle down, they’re allowed to have an opinion.
It’s not about being comfortable. This is a public forum and I for one don’t want the content I consume to be in a thought vacuum.
While I can empathize and even appeal to Boston’s remark, I have no interest in the US devolving a land of vigilantism and “purges.”
