The guy is a nutjob, but his arrest seems to be in clear violation of of his rights.

Oh yikes. Now the Catholic Church is linked in the minds of the witch-hunters with this nutjob.

Excerpt

Harold Charles Turner, of North Bergen, also known as Hal Turner, was arrested by State Capitol Police for inciting injury.

The arrest came the day after his blog alluded to using guns against Sen. Andrew J. McDonald, D-Stamford, and Rep. Michael P. Lawlor, D-East Haven, co-chairmen of the Judiciary Committee, and Thomas K. Jones, enforcement officer for the Office of State Ethics.

Turner, 47, was booked in New Jersey, pending extradition to Connecticut.

It reads that Turner is also a paid informant for the FBI. He wanted to shoot W, send a drone with bombs to 0 and shoot mexicans.

More to this story we may never know.

Not the same thing, per se, but what about Grassley’s quote to the AIG execs? It was in poor taste, but still in the realm of free speech. Or did the guy actually say he was gonna kill someone?

"Obey the Constitution or resign" would be a better choice of words.

Then again, no one gripes about "Live Free or Die" on a New Hampshire license plate...

Turner, a New Jersey native, was apparently angry about proposed legislation that would have given lay members of Roman Catholic churches in Connecticut more control over their parish’s finances...

This is not true. It would have taken the churches away from the control of their bishops, who are the successors to the Apostles, and essentially given them to a structure outside of the Church that could be controlled by the government.

Why is his arrest a violation of his rights? And I'll have a follow-up question after you've responded.

By the way, on your profile pg. where is that statue of St. Teresa of Avila?

This guy is a nut. I only remember him because his online show was constantly raided by the chans.
