According to an affidavit written by a DPS special agent, Ozment allegedly called the Governor’s Office on the afternoon of July 25. DPS claims Ozment left the following voicemail (KXAN has redacted the profanity in the transcript provided by DPS):

“I don’t know which one of you sons of b—-es passed this motherf—ing bill to get this damn s— blocking my motherf—ing anime, but you whole a– motherf—ers need to unpass this s—. Y’all are f—ing ridiculous with your b—- a–es. My Google account says I’m f—ing over the age of 18, and your dumba– is passing these dumba– laws. I’m a f—ing stab every godd— one of you b—-es. Unlock my f—ing anime.”

The second sentence from the last sounds like terroristic threats.

Ah yes. I missed the word stab. I was focusing on the swear words. Still think terrorism is a stretch though

Yeah, you need to first damage them, then threat of additional damage to them and their immediate families will work.

These privileged assholes who think getting things through official channels will work and is the best solution if only they just scream about their feelings (which they inform me facts don't care about) loud enough.

Goddamn, the bleeps make that annoying to read. My best guess:

“I don’t know which one of you sons of bitches passed this motherfucking bill to get this damn shit blocking my motherfucking anime, but you whole ass motherfuckers need to unpass this shit. Y’all are fucking ridiculous with your bitch-asses. My Google account says I’m fucking over the age of 18, and your dumbass is passing these dumbass laws. I’m a fucking stab every goddamn one of you bitches. Unlock my fucking anime.”

Not sure that the first "s--"= shit, but, whatever.

Because using a VPN removes the burden of actually telling your representatives that they passed a shitty bill.

Pretty much. The state has a monopoly on violence. They can threaten you, and use force, as much as they want. If you do the same, and they don't like it, that's terrorism.

As if democrats weren't doing the same thing. It's a uniparty. The difference is the same as pokémon red and blue, you get to choose the color of the package and which monster you get.

To those who didn't read TFA: he wasn't talking about anime like Boku no Hero Academia or Dragon Ball Z. He was talking about hentai.

The article confirms that Crunchyroll and a couple other anime streamers are available in Texas.

The guy was trying to access PornHub (or a site like it) to watch hentai, and that site simply blocks all Texans (and people from other countries and US states that have similar laws).

As for those asking if it's illegal: the US constitution does enshrine the freedom of speech, or rather, your government's inability to pass laws restricting said freedom. However, there are still exceptions. You still can't make threats to officials, or other things that can harm others.

Well first of all, he's 35. So 20 years is impossible.

Second of all, he threatened to stab them.

Finally he's from Houston, which is historically blue.

We really need to teach the general public about Tor.

...or maybe not because that could cause governments to become a lot more interested in attempting to block or limit it too... :(

But the Democrats are obviously better; they have Meowth and so can't get softlocked by running out of money.

Please put that in a spoiler! My son read that and now he's sporting a mohawk and calling his mother and I the b word! We don't want him saying that kind of language except on special occasions like when God allows us to eat pancakes (Lent). Now I have to explain cookies to him. Thanks a lot, maybe think of the fucking children next time.
