In looking over my copy of U.S. Code CHAPTER 113B—TERRORISM, I find that the penalties could be just a bit more that a few months in the pokey. What we need is someone who will actually charge these individuals and then prosecute them.
(1) Penalties.— Whoever violates this section shall be punished—
(A) for a killing, or if death results to any person from any other conduct prohibited by this section, by death, or by imprisonment for any term of years or for life;
(B) for kidnapping, by imprisonment for any term of years or for life;
(C) for maiming, by imprisonment for not more than 35 years;
(D) for assault with a dangerous weapon or assault resulting in serious bodily injury, by imprisonment for not more than 30 years;
(E) for destroying or damaging any structure, conveyance, or other real or personal property, by imprisonment for not more than 25 years;
(F) for attempting or conspiring to commit an offense, for any term of years up to the maximum punishment that would have applied had the offense been completed; and
(G) for threatening to commit an offense under this section, by imprisonment for not more than 10 years.

..... Hmmm, do you happen to know the statute of limitations on such offences? I am a bit concerned about any possible lingering legal exposure to which I and my Delta House fraternity brothers may be exposed as a result of a certain civil disturbance which occurred during my more happy-go-lucky days attending Faber College.
