Nevada bill would allow tech companies to create governments:
Planned legislation to establish new business areas in Nevada would allow technology companies to effectively form separate local governments.
Democratic Gov. Steve Sisolak announced a plan to launch so-called Innovation Zones in Nevada to jumpstart the state's economy by attracting technology firms, Las Vegas Review-Journal reported Wednesday.
The zones would permit companies with large areas of land to form governments carrying the same authority as counties, including the ability to impose taxes, form school districts and courts and provide government services.
The measure to further economic development with the "alternative form of local government" has not yet been introduced in the Legislature.
[...] The governor's economic development office did not respond to questions about the zones Wednesday.

Thus extreme accuracy in the "idiots" assertion.
Second point? If you're utterly incapable of killing me, I'm just going to laugh at you. No amount of butthurt on my part would or should cause assault with a nerf feather duster to be taken seriously as attempted murder.
They're not getting off scot-free though. They have to pay the price for what they did. Actions have consequences, even for the terminally stupid.

You contradict yourself with that last line: these *are* the consequences for the "terminally stupid." Attempt a coup, even if you're utterly incompetent, and you will be treated like a terrorist. Play Stupid Games, Win Stupid Prizes.

Sigh, engage your brain for a change and pay attention to what is actually said. This is both ultra-mega-clown-shoes when screeched about as a coup attempt and illegal. At the same time.

And being ultra-mega-clownshoes does not erase mens rea. You really ought to stop gibbering about things you don't even half-understand.
