#2 I believe the question that needs to be asked is, why isn't law enforcement being more aggressive against on-line activities such as this ?

#6 The guy in Harris County who shot the guy robbing a Taqueria was "no billed" by a Grand Jury. That was even though he appeared to go up to the robber and shoot him in the head after he was already on the ground.

If Spencer didn't have a prior record, he'd likely walk on this.
