§ 2706. Terroristic threats.
(a) Offense defined. A person commits the crime of terroristic
threats if the person communicates, either directly or indirectly, a
threat to: commit any crime of violence with intent to terrorize
another; cause evacuation of a building, place of assembly, or
facility of public transportation; or otherwise cause serious public
inconvenience, or cause terror or serious public inconvenience
with reckless disregard of the risk of causing such terror or inconvenience.
(e) Definition.--As used in this section, the term "communicates"
means conveys in person or by written or electronic means, including
telephone, electronic mail, Internet, facsimile, telex and
similar transmissions.
ADVISORY NOTE: As with disorderly conduct, this code section
has been used to suppress or discourage lawful open carry.
“Convey” means to communicate, either orally or by written or
electronic means. Because the open carry of firearms is not a
communication as defined by this section, it can not be terroristic
threatening.
