The FBI recently nabbed two potential terrorists who had been conspiring to carry out attacks on US Soil. The two men, Kristopher Sean Matthews and Christopher Molina, had a variety of targets that included economic centers and government buildings.
Among their targets were the CIA headquarters, the FBI building, the DEA headquarters, the New York Stock Exchange, and Trump Tower.
The FBI alleges that the two men, who are both US-born citizens, were radicalized online and joined the notorious terror organization ISIS. FBI officials became aware of the two when they connected on a highly encrypted online messaging application.
The two men shared bomb-making guides and ISIS training videos that showed viewers how to use AK-47 rifles. The duo had also made a concerted effort to “radicalize and recruit” via social media, although to what extent is unknown.
Terror is very real and while these two were likely incapable of what they planned to do, they did make these plans and had access to the resources to make it a reality.
conspiracy to commit an act of “terror” becomes a federal crime as soon as you “conspire” to carry out the “act” !
25 years in Gitmo can cure them of that
As long as it wasn’t anything more than talk, there;s no charge of actually breaking a law.
So are you suggesting that until they actually kill a number of people and destroy property, they should be allowed to continue with their plan?
not true. If you conspire to commit a crime like that, you can be found guilty of a felony. Have you never heard of the husband or wife who conspired to kill their spouse and were caught before it happened? These people often are convicted of a felony and end up going to jail, often for a long sentence.
wrong on the law
