If you made a clearly hyperbolic threat -- like "I'm going to throw you into the sun!" -- the fact that it's clearly an empty threat negates it being considered a threat. And within the context here, it can be somewhat assumed that the person isn't serious even if you aren't completely sure. Conversely, if he does have it... Revelation34 posted... Shit. I better go get the person I saw coughing the other day arrested. I mean the culprit knows it is an empty threat, but not the victim. In this case I would mean a situation like threatening someone with an unloaded/fake gun, the implied threat is still there and as such it would still count as assault right? --- Official Teetotaller of PotD Dovie'andi se tovya sagain! ...
