The problem is, every day people are charged with "terroristic threat" for nothing more than leaving a nasty voicemail for their ex-boyfriend, using any words like "kick your ass". Under Texas law, for example, any communication that attempts to "place any person in fear of imminent serious bodily injury" qualifies as a terroristic threat.
Obviously saying "I'm going to kick your ass" isn't terrorism, but the charge is used all the time because the wording of the law is so loose. This new bill has the same problem.
