Make what go away? Even without those words there is clearly no threat. Anyone who thinks otherwise needs their head examined.

> I do think it was a joke from a dumb kid. I don't think he deserves jail time but I'm glad someone took it seriously enough to look into it.

So... you don't think he deserves this, but you are glad somebody is subjecting him to it? Come again?

1. Canadian woman saw post, reported to police to look into

2. Law went crazy overboard

I agree with 1, I think it was a smart thing to do. Similarly, I'd hope "jk" bomb threats would be tipped to police as well. I don't agree with 2.

No, it was not a smart thing to do. When you see things like that, you should think. Not regex for scary or even mildly offensive combinations of words, but think. Put that gray matter to some use.

Anyone who reads the comment he made, in its context, and thinks "whoa, better call the cops", demonstrates a serious failure to think.

I threaten a bomb. jk.

The call is yours to make.

Come on now, at least make it credible. Threaten to eat some still-beating child hearts too!
