First Tweeter to Get Arrested for Micro-Threats was a Tea Bagger

By Tina Dupuy on April 27, 2009 11:14 AM

Daniel Knight Hayden, 52 got arrested by the FBI for the content of his Twitter account. Which makes Hayden the first dude to get popped by the G-Men for micro-blogging.

AP/Huffpo writes:

An Oklahoma man was arrested by FBI agents earlier this month for posting a series of messages on his Twitter account threatening to use a tax day Tea Party protest to commit politically-motivated mass murder.

It’s a kind of odd self-fulfilling prophecy: Hate big government violently enough and they will come and lock you up.
