Clear Josh Pillault of all "terrorist" charges for making a sarcastic comment in a video game.

Created by B.D. on July 06, 2013

While Josh Pillault was on a game called Runescape, he was confronted by another player who said that Josh should kill himself. Josh replied saying that "he would not just kill himself, but he would take out a local high school"

Soon afterwards, Josh was taken in by the feds. Seeing what little options there were, and hoping for a shorter sentence, Josh plead guilty. He is currently serving a 10-year sentence and a $250,000 fine

Josh's family, friends, and school officials have stated that such a punishment is undeserved; even the inmates at the prison Josh is currently residing at think that the punishment is crazy

Josh is going to have ten years of his life flushed down the toilet, simply for a sarcastic comment he made over an online game. Release Josh and clear him of all charges
