Teen Arrested for Making Threats Over Xbox Live

[Hobo Joe]

I can see the headlines now:

Violent video game prevents school shooting.

It will be glorious.

That would certainly be a turn in a different direction for the media these days. They'd never print it though.

RCMP & Texas County Police working together!? BEH-ZHAR-OH!

Wow, if the police take X box threats seriously, it must be a slow day.

Like everything on live, its pure B.S.

I have had 1337 people threaten to kill me and as far as I know it hasnt happened.

I think you didn't read it. The person said that he was going to cause a school shooting. Not violent threats as an internet tough guy.

reminds me of the penny arcade comic "the federal bureau of taking all you shit", but I couldn't find it.

I wish these kids would be more original in their efforts. God, how about a "Do Not Kill List." That way it implies that they're are standards and protocols list you have that might be implemented.
