And some of us still defended the PATRIOT Act.

Lundeby is a 16-year-old homeschooled kid from Oxford, NC. Two months ago a dozen FBI agents aided by two NC Highway Patrolmen, and at least one Granville County Sheriff’s deputy bum-rushed the Lundeby home to arrest Ashton and imprison him under the PATRIOT Act. The FBI suggested, but Ashton has yet to be formally charged, that he made bomb threats directed at Purdue University in Indiana back in February.

Ashton has an airtight alibi on where he was when the threat was supposedly made. Federal authorities have evinced no interest in that information.

Ashton has spent the last 60 days in an adult federal detention center to South Bend, Ind. He due to finally come before a federal judge on May 22nd.

The terrorists have won.
