crime"? Don't I believe in free speech? Well, if I hear that Vladimir G. Nulis says I should be killed, and that he is coming to California to take care of this, I have no compunctions, liberrarian or otherwise, about shooting first at the first sign of his appearance on my property. Understandably, the government does not wish this to happen. Thus, I have no problem with illegalizing direct and concrete threats. General threats, such as "all lawyers should be taken out into the parking lot and garotted" are not specific, direct, and concrete, and hence fall under the free speech provisions.)
I have heard of one person who was shot to death trying to visit a woman who had a restraining order against him. I don't think they even bothered trying to prosecute her; on the other hand, this isn't California... BTW, if you are a libberarian now, I suggest you use some sort of silencer.
