Awaiting a poll on which intellectually demanding major this guy was taking at the “university”. Major bucks on some marshmallow subject.

No need to use quotes around the word university in relation to Georgia Southern, it’s a good school with an enrollment of around 20,000 students. Like all schools, it’s up to you to make something of your time there. This kid obviously is a dumb*ss who decided that sitting in jail is preferable to getting an education.

Statesboro did have the highest rate of STD’s in the state of GA. Maybe he is part of a study measuring the effects of multiple STD’s on 1 brain. :)

it reminds me of the time of a family on their way to a Hawaiian vacation being pulled out the flight remanded in custody when handlers rummaging through their luggage found a note in one of the bags written by their teenage son taunting them with something to the effect not to look through his bag, “no bomb in this bag”.

Inexplicably, I seem to have misplaced my reserve supply of sympathy.

Maybe he’ll now get a scholarship in “performance art”, which is also known as “making a spectacle of yourself to annoy others.”

he posted the message as ”an experimental literary piece"

It is evidently more "literary" to spell the noun effect as if it were the verb affect. Artsy, perhaps?

Let's see...

"hello. my name is irenigg and i plan on shooting up georgia southern. pass this around to see the affect it has. to see if i get arrested.

Well, the e.e. cummings thing as already been done. So no points for originality there.

"Literary"... does that include 30-word messages? I don't know for sure, but I wouldn't call it "literary".

As for Clemmons’ motivation, the 20-year-old says he posted the message as ”an experimental literary piece and an art project,”

Well, he can look upon his incarceration as an extension of an artistic experience within confinement

A-hole.

A dork he may be but whatever happened to Freedom? We now have thought crimes and here his sentence can be taken as a credible threat? It shouldn't take more than the time it took to pull his real identity to verify the potential of the threat.

He's locked up because they can lock him up.

I dunno. I post that Mo-Hamm'ID is a false prophet and izlam is no religion but a serious attempt to provide an excuse for worldwide dominiation for an elite ruling class and some moose-limb gets his knickers/female-burial-shroud in a knot and says he has every intention of tracking where I live for the purposes of a ritual beheading for "insulting" his "religion"...

I just might be carrying as a result, no matter if he protests to the arresting officers that he was merely excercising his First Amendment Rights of Free Speach (sic) (like muzzies care about free speech, I know).

No, I wouldn't feel threatened at all. Filled with resolve, yes.

Even freedom has limits. He threatens to shoot people - he goes to jail. If he hadn't been jailed, he'd then threaten an airline to test to waters. Would you be OK with that also?

his family is unable to pay his $20,000 bail.

Wow, and he was just turning his life around too.
His family wouldn’t go his bail?
They couldn’t find a bondsman?
Kid must have been a flight risk or something.
