Oh but I LOVE this one:

"A man who allegedly shot a crossbow at a motorist after being on the receiving end of an obscene gesture..."

Go ahead, see if you can balance an apple on that finger and I'll shoot it off. And pray I mean the APPLE, not your FINGER.

"...has been charged with committing a terroristic act."

What the HECK would happen to the legal system if 9/11 had never occured? I mean, all the different charges we'd bring against people... it'd be chaos! Not like it is now where every crime is a "terroristic act".

"...also charged with possession of an instrument of crime..."

Really? I'd LOVE to see the folks debating what is and what isn't an "instrument of crime". Is a butcher knife used to slice and dice someone else's tires an "instrument of crime"? How about a gun? How about a baseball bat? Hmmm....

"A police report said that Gilgenbach admitted to making an obscene gesture at Dierks, but the motorist on Monday said he could not recall that incident."

Ah, a fan of Ronald Reagan.

"
Archery-crossbow hunting seasons for deer, bear and turkey began Oct. 1 so it is not extraordinary that someone might be carrying a crossbow in their vehicle this time of year."

Really? So... this crossbow isn't really just an "instrument of crime"?

I LOVE this story. :)
