A Twitter user thought to be a teenage girl has received unwanted notoriety after she sent a terrorism-themed message to American Airlines. (snip)

The girl – who identified herself as a 14-year-old named Sarah in her now-suspended Twitter account – sent this tweet to American Airlines' @americanair account Sunday morning.

"hello my name's Ibrahim and I'm from Afghanistan. I'm part of Al Qaida and on June 1st I'm gonna do something really big bye."

American responded, saying: "Sarah, we take these threats very seriously. Your IP address and details will be forwarded to security and the FBI."

(snip)

According to a tweet sent out by Rotterdam police in the Netherlands, the girl has been arrested.

Stupid is as stupid does. If it wasn't so important it would be damn funny and a great example of "actions have consequences."

(I searched so if this is a duplicate blame Search)

she is an idiot but she did not actually threaten to do anything except something big. Not really enough to be a real threat

If so, she has an excuse.

Suppose the something big is the adoption of a puppy? Won't American Airlines be in for it THEN?

Pretty nonspecific to be called a 'threat'.

>>Pretty nonspecific to be called a ‘threat’.<<
Say “I have something big planned for this flight” right before boarding and see what happens.

“Something Big” is what the terrorists were saying before 9/11. It is tantamount to saying “I will be setting a bomb.”

It might not be specific but it sure as hell is a threat.

Well hell, I plan something big for tonight. I guess that’s a threat now too? It really means I plan a nice big meal, but... no, it’s a threat now.

When did we start making stuff up outright?

“I will wake up tomorrow on time to get to work” must mean “I have a thermonuclear device that I will place on the Eiffel Tower and detonate”, under these new rules of language.

When did the entire f***ing world lose it’s damned mind?

Again with people using Twitter as a platform to just make international fools of themselves!

Never EVER let your kids have one of these things until they are out of the house.

It’s a threat.

Real terrorist message (according to ObamaHolder):

hello my name's Scott and I'm from Texas. I'm part of the Tea Party and on June 1st I'm gonna do something really big bye.

Silly (Dutch) Rabbit, Tricks Are For Kidz! This is classic ignorant bliss, she incriminates herself six ways from Sunday, then says; “I was just joking. Plus, I’m a White Girl!”. She curses just like your typical 18 y/o American girl. I won’t repeat it here.

I clicked on this thread because I couldn’t imagine who would make “terroristic threats” against Alcoholics Anonymous.
