'Unlock my f---ing anime': Houston man arrested after threatening call to governor's office
According to an affidavit written by a DPS special agent, Ozment allegedly called the Governor’s Office on the afternoon of July 25. DPS claims Ozment left the following voicemail (KXAN has redacted the profanity in the transcript provided by DPS):
“I don’t know which one of you sons of b—-es passed this motherf—ing bill to get this damn s— blocking my motherf—ing anime, but you whole a– motherf—ers need to unpass this s—. Y’all are f—ing ridiculous with your b—- a–es. My Google account says I’m f—ing over the age of 18, and your dumba– is passing these dumba– laws. I’m a f—ing stab every godd— one of you b—-es. Unlock my f—ing anime.”

Those who would give up essential anime to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither anime nor safety. - Benjamin Franklin, probably.
Ben Franklin's Congressional Hentai Collection is a foundational part of US history
Lincoln's Yuri Archives are still open to the public, and thank God and Sweet Baby Jesus for that.
Not to be seconded by the Founding Mothers' BL Library.
Ben Franklin of all people, would absolutely be down for that shit.
Wasn't a MILF enthusiast too?
Definitely based dude.
dude was a women-of-all-kinds enthusiast from what I can tell. published a recipe for abortion too. https://www.npr.org/2022/05/18/1099542962/abortion-ben-franklin-roe-wade-supreme-court-leak

Please put that in a spoiler! My son read that and now he's sporting a mohawk and calling his mother and I the b word! We don't want him saying that kind of language except on special occasions like when God allows us to eat pancakes (Lent). Now I have to explain cookies to him. Thanks a lot, maybe think of the fucking children next time.

Yes the mods over there can be twats, and yes there are militant shitbirds with asinine opinions (let's be honest, every instance has them). And then you get a post like this…

I'm seeing the parent of this comment thread as [email protected].
I'm on sync, so maybe it's an app issue? Or maybe you're blocking .ml and can only see the OP that jdr replied to? Dunno.

"Man thinks threatening politicians is more effective than using a vpn"
Because using a VPN removes the burden of actually telling your representatives that they passed a shitty bill.
They know what they did and do not care
They'll care if they get stabbed!
Yeah, you need to first damage them, then threat of additional damage to them and their immediate families will work.
These privileged assholes who think getting things through official channels will work and is the best solution if only they just scream about their feelings (which they inform me facts don't care about) loud enough.
I bet he's a straight-line Republican voter, too. And just cannot comprehend how the policies he voted for could ever affect him -- it was only supposed to hurt other people!
The average person has no idea what a VPN even is.
Really!? But I know about VPNs
He's apparently under 40 and capable of navigating the Internet. Very strange that he wouldn't at least bother to look it up online or something. Presumably he had to find the phone number he called so he seems capable of finding information. It really isn't that hard to set up a free VPN if you're literate and have Internet access. I'm someone who regularly defends people not using Linux because it's confusing for them, so I feel like I'm not being overly demanding here or anything. I'm pretty sure Firefox has a free one built in now. So, it might've been as easy as downloading Firefox and clicking a button. I'm not sure because I don't use Firefox like that, but still.
You're vastly overestimating the benefit of youth in computing these days. It was more of a Gen X / Millennial phenomenon because computers were widespread but difficult to use. Like car guys in the preceding generations.
Going forward, there will be as many young people good at computers as there are young people good at cars. Not many, but enough to keep computer science moving forward.
He's in his 30s. I said under 40 because I didn't remember the exact age, but I am not attempting to suggest the iPad generation knows about computers. For what it's worth, even someone bad at computers because they grew up on iPads could likely figure out how to get access.
Goddamn, the bleeps make that annoying to read. My best guess:
Not sure that the first "s--"= shit, but, whatever.
Alternate translation:
Believe it!
He was swearing so much it almost turned into morsecode.
To those who didn't read TFA: he wasn't talking about anime like Boku no Hero Academia or Dragon Ball Z. He was talking about hentai.
The article confirms that Crunchyroll and a couple other anime streamers are available in Texas.
The guy was trying to access PornHub (or a site like it) to watch hentai, and that site simply blocks all Texans (and people from other countries and US states that have similar laws).
As for those asking if it's illegal: the US constitution does enshrine the freedom of speech, or rather, your government's inability to pass laws restricting said freedom. However, there are still exceptions. You still can't make threats to officials, or other things that can harm others.
It's not about protecting anyone, it's about surveillance and an ability to blackmail/threaten anyone who steps out of line.
I'm not surprised given Texas's reputation. Big hats, big trucks, "don't mess with Texas"... yeah how about I just skip Texas entirely next time I visit the States. I hear some parts of it are nice, though, but hot isn't my thing.
Carrying a sword openly sounds awesome in theory but terrible in practice.
I have to go to Texas to complete a bucket list of mine (Visit all the national parks in the US) and I'm trying to figure out how I can do it without spending any money there... Pack in my own fuel, food, supplies, stay at free campgrounds or on public land. I don't want to spend a cent in Texas when I go.
Counterpoint: I've heard Whataburger is worth the money. It's also a Texas-based business, I believe. Never tried it, myself. Not sure if I would or not.
I don't think there is a way I can prevent sending any money to someone in Texas, they have ports, they do a lot of oil refinement. I'm trying not to spend any money in Texas. They have a significant tourism economy, and I dislike the idea of giving tourism money to a state that is famously bigoted, anti-woman, and pro-christofascist.
FYI - it's because he specifically said that he was going to stab them. That's a very real threat and actionable, most people have access to knives.
Now saying you're going to cut their heads off with a guillotine? That's protected by free speech, and you'd 100% be able to argue that in court because I guarantee you don't have a guillotine or know how to build one (hopefully, maybe you do - in that case do not say this).
Who the hell doesn't know how to build a guillotine? It's a knife hanging from a rope with guides on the sides. If you wanted to make a nice artsy one, you could just have one guided side.
I should have said 'know how and have the means to do so'.
A guillotine also isn't something you can just take into a court room and start killing people with - it's not a weapon in the traditional sense.
That's still anime.
Yeah the supreme court only decided free press applies to adult porn access in the late 20th century
he did nothing wrong but i guarantee you that guy voted for texas republicans the last 20 years.
Well first of all, he's 35. So 20 years is impossible.
Second of all, he threatened to stab them.
Finally he's from Houston, which is historically blue.
So it's a maybe is what you're saying...
As if democrats weren't doing the same thing. It's a uniparty. The difference is the same as pokémon red and blue, you get to choose the color of the package and which monster you get.
But the Democrats are obviously better; they have Meowth and so can't get softlocked by running out of money.
FUCK.
This shit is so hard to read when it's text-bleeped.
WTF is "godd—"?

Ah, american priscillas and oh noes dey insulting dem santa claus dude on the cross.
Just pirate it.
I mean, the Supreme Court just legalized copying. Millions of rare and one-of-a-kind books are being bodily destroyed just so they can be scanned in, which is pretty much the same thing.
If AI companies can steal content without repercussions, why not you?
I for one have been training a neural network using pirated content for years. It's an in credibly efficient large language model that runs off very little power and fits comfortably in the space between my ears.
Exactly correct. Training material.
Be sure to use unlawful AI that acts on it's own and be surprised by results.
Yes, but also those poor starving artists are gonna have even smaller desks to sleep under as people unplug from anime streaming services.
The response for losing ground shouldn't be just adjusting to it...
Did he break an actual law?
The second sentence from the last sounds like terroristic threats.
Disclaimer: I’m not a lawyer.
Edit: typo
Ah yes. I missed the word stab. I was focusing on the swear words. Still think terrorism is a stretch though
It actually stands for System TABle
Maybe this will help.
No, it's the name of a crime in the US basically meaning threatening to kill or injure: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terroristic_threat
Is every threat, no matter how plausible, considered terrorism, now?
Pretty much. The state has a monopoly on violence. They can threaten you, and use force, as much as they want. If you do the same, and they don't like it, that's terrorism.
It could be protected hyperbole, would depend on the jury I imagine https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/True_threat
That was always the point since those terrorism laws were passed. Any inconvenience can be articulated under that excuse and you can easily remove anyone by the same claims.
Everything working as designed.
Legal Definition of terroristic threat
Yes, please fall in line citizen.
What about it sounds terrorist? I don't see any homeless people being fed.
He said he was going to stab people.

Loliconpedobait shit.We really need to teach the general public about Tor.
...or maybe not because that could cause governments to become a lot more interested in attempting to block or limit it too... :(
Tor is overkill for streaming and it burdens the network.
