What one thinks or says out of context cannot be used against them in a free society.
What people do, however is not at all the same. If someone makes a pipe bomb, they have acted on their thoughts and possession of a bomb, used or unused is against the law.
I may be illegal to threaten the life of the president or a person, but it is not illegal to wish he was dead.
Action, not thoughts or words is probably a legal part of all this, but I'm no lawyer.
"Lets blow shit up" from a bunch of drunks out in the boonies is still words, until something goes boom.
I would rather a thousand terrorist bombs went off around the country than see one person detained for their thoughts.
So its legal to blow up a building? Also if a bunch of drunk idiots say they are going to blow something up they probobly would. Have you seen how stupid people get when they are hammered? They would probobly try! If they succeeded would depend but I don't doubt a drunk idiot would try something since people ARE STUPID WHEN DRUNK! Also its not a thought when you tell everyone other american,European, Japanese person I hate you, I hate this country, I going to get it blown it up when I live in japan, America, Europe. On top of that people do not like being harassed for race.
Should we report anti patriotic people as terrorist?

Where in the world did you get "So its legal to blow up a building?" from what I wrote?
I give up; you just go ahead and run to the teacher and tell.
