John Rivello, the Twitter user who allegedly sent a tweet that caused a journalist to have a seizure, was charged by the Dallas District Attorney Monday with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. The felony assault charge comes with a hate crime enhancement.

Police cars should not be able to have flashing lights.

Sounds like good news for him. That charge is not remotely justifiable nor provable.

Just do a forum search for Eichenwald. It's not like the guy's name is John Smith.

Do prosecutors ever overcharge for this intended result? Seems dangerous if so.

Nah, you could only find one measly post of mine out of 41 thousand in seven years about Obama and his vacations and it wasn't even bitching about tax money and not working for the american people like so many conservatives did back then and even said that Presidents can do whatever they want and there's no point arguing it. I made the 2017 post not quite remembering something I said years ago.

You ran into a thread hair on fire yelling germans without bothering to read the op closer.

Looks like the Dallas DA is setting this one up on a tee, for the guy's lawyer to hit it out of the park

Even if charged with aggrivated assault, the jury could find the defendant guilty of the lesser included offense, in this case misdemeanor assault.
