I heard a report where his lawyer says that the threat was not serious and the resulting frenzy was due to public paranoia. If they found fertilizer in his garage, or a gun in his possession instead of pot, I might not believe this. However if there is nothing to confirm his alleged intention other than heresay, I wonder. The fact he had some pot is insignificant IMHO. Think about joepole's post the other day in the online entertainment poll.......

We all know this was sarcasm but only because we "know" him. But when does someone really know someone? When is a joke or parody a genuine threat and vice versa?
