While the LoL community is pretty wretched, that's possibly the most ridiculous story I've ever heard.

What has this world come to?

I'm taking this one with a big fat grain of salt.  The reporter doesn't quote any prosecutorial source.  There's no explanation why his folks didn't seek bail for their son.  Even if I thought the US Attorney was a nut who wanted to throw the book at him that doesn't explain why the judge feels locking him up is a good idea.  For all I know he has an altar to Satan in his room and they found a recipe for raw hearts on his computer.

Indeed...

call it:

"Canadians pwn Texans"

are you serious? SO if I say in fazebook I'm gonna bomb a szhool they'll kome and take me to prison??

this is not serious, the soziety under paranoia, taken a zhat stuff seriously from an online videogame instead of looking for the real villians (yes those in white suits in their offizes at the whitehouse, penthagon etz...).   Dont know in waht part of the prozess they missed to realise the video"GAME" part, a game that, akkording to your paranoik law kan put your bones in jail

klap klap for USA, you gonna end up shooting eazh other bekause one guy looks another in bad manners, ... oh wait, you've being doing that sinze 1800 

What are you talking about?  First of all, we've got more guns per capita, so naa

Render, I think you missed the part where Baratheon was being sarcastic in his statement. He is a Canadian, he was taking a shot at the US Anti-Terrorism Laws.

eff you all

you know more Americans in jail is the way to go

i am skeptical as to the truth of this as well.  it seems odd he wouldnt be eligible for bail.  if he was going to be treated like a terrorist then he wouldnt get due process at all so talking about being formally charged and put on trial is odd.  i'm assuming it's his first offense and it's not a murder in the first charge so shouldnt really be ineligible for bail.  i doubt he has a substantial criminal record. i also doubt he is extremely well off to be considered a flight risk because if he was then this bs charge would have been thrown out immediately by a halfway decent attorney.

then again i dont practice criminal law and this is texas which is happy about executing its first female criminal so who knows.

wait they executed a woman for a pickaxe murder last decade so it must just be the first in a few years

I just want to note that Texas has a population of 26 million people.  Not that its population is more than Canada's, but you're not exactly talking about Delaware here.  Cutting up the military size by dividing it on a state-by-state basis would generally work, but not when you're dealing with... I think the 4th largest state in the country.

It all comes together though, if Justin Carter is unhinged.  If we believe he's unhinged

He made sick jokes about killing kids because he's unhinged
The cops sent his case to the DA because he's unhinged
The DA went after him because he's unhinged
The judge gave him $500,000 bail because he's unhinged
And now he's suicidal because he's unhinged

I know I have nothing, but, that's why we jail people before trial (NOT 'imprisoned') so we can still have them around to find them guilty of felonies.

Texas has several thousand Original Peoples. Canada would become flooded with Comanche, Apache, Kiowa and Arapaho scouts in traditional garb riding around spying.

Texas has a Republican governor, like Montana, Wisconsin and Minnesota.  These governors can declare a pardon for possessing goods stolen in Canada.  Within hours, hoodlums from Milwaukee, Minneapolis, Chicago, Detroit and Buffalo will be looting Canada to hold street bazaars in Republican states.

Canadians in central provinces will flee to the coasts, which border liberal states.  The roads will be choked with barefoot refugees, as the Original Peoples of Texas block intersections with traditional dances and blessings.   Canadian authorities will be helpless in the face of cultural diversity.

In the coastal provinces, morale will be shattered as commando teams of American hockey players infiltrate friendly neighborhood games, pwning Canadian men in front of their girlfriends.

Texas politicians will cleverly manuever the US President by declaring the Constitution forbids him to offer support for Canada.  The President will defiantly fly to Canada to offer support for its government.   This will cause the government to fall.

Rudderless and disrupted, the provinces will seek to rejoin the British, French, and Japanese Empire, before giving up and allowing Texas to hold a victory barbecue in the lawn of the PM's residence.
