    Were 3 members of a militia group plotting to kill members of a Somali community, as prosecutors allege? Or were the men just talking, as their defense team says?https://nyti.ms/2H2ajBW

        Definition of conspiracy: 2 or more talking about committing a crime

        2 or more people, plus 1 overt act. Acquiring bomb material is that overt act. Simple.

        The US Attorneys office wins almost 100% of conspiracy cases that they bring to court. They're done.

        What if the reverse were true? If Somalians were talking about executing these 3 lipless wonders they would be rotting away in a hole somewhere.

        If it was reversed, people of Somalian descent conspiring to murder white Americans, do we really think this argument would be made.

        Is it legal for me and others to sit around and plot an assassination of a government official as long as we're just talking about it? I've heard it isn't...

        Yes, I often talk about committing murder and mayhem😁 Doesn't everyone? Actually no. Normal people don't discuss killing people. Terrorists do.

        Red flags. Were ANY of the mass killers just talking prior to their committing mass murders? Seriously? These guys need to be locked up. A cancer on our society.

        I don’t think discussing murdering people for their race is just “idle talk” I wonder if they got the idea from the President claiming that his bragging of sexual assault was just “locker room” talk?
