It might not be, but when you arrest someone for writing things there is a very high bar that you need to reach for credibility. It is not legal to arrest someone for thought crime or for the contents of their private journal. Quotations like "Anytime you make any threat or possess matter involving a school or function it's a felony in the state of Kentucky" don't generate a lot of confidence. A private journal is not a threat. In order to threaten someone you have to actually present the threat to them. And it certainly is not a "felony in the state of kentucky" to posses "matter" involving a "school or function," whatever the hell that means. Was he or was he not actually planning an attack? Who knows. Until there is some shred of information which indicates that he might have, one must assume that he was not, and as being arrested for one's writings is a very grave matter one must express some concern with the situation.
