How many people in the US would push a button if they were told it would blow up DC? A lot of liberals in the mid 2000’s and probably a lot on the right now. The difference is that none of these people are actually carrying out their plans without the FBI.
Thought is not a crime.
“Thought is not a crime.”

Thank God, huh!
But this was not a mere thought. The defendant did everything to get the bomb to blow up, killing how many people, he “pushed the button”. The only reason the people weren’t killed was that the bomb didn’t explode. Doesn’t matter why.
