The next time you hear a Democrat speak out against the violence currently spreading throughout our country, it will be the first time. Based on their lack of condemning the violence, it appears they’re just fine with the murder, assaults, looting and burning taking place in our country because they believe it serves a political end.

What Is Assault by Threat in Texas?
Verbally threatening to cause another person to suffer bodily harm is an offense charged as assault by threat in Texas.
Examples of phrases that violate verbal threat laws in Texas include:
Threatening to kill a victim.
Threatening to hit, kick or otherwise physically harm a victim.
Shouting at a victim in an abusive, threatening manner.
Making specific violent threats to a target over the phone or online.
Pantomiming or referencing specific acts of violence to be committed against the victim.
Understanding Texas Threat Charges
In Texas, there are different threat charges an individual can face based on the nature of the alleged comments.
A verbal threat is charged as a Class C misdemeanor, which is punishable by a fine of up to $500. But not all instances of verbal assault are charged as Class C misdemeanors.
When a threat causes the victim to fear for her imminent safety, the offender can face a Class B misdemeanor charge. This charge is punishable by up to 180 days in jail and a fine of up to $2,000.
A verbal threat made against a victim who has a restraining order against the offender is a Class A misdemeanor, punishable by a fine of up to $4,000 and up to one year in jail
Verbal threat laws in Texas are taken seriously. Even when the individual who made the alleged threat was joking with the victim or only blowing off steam, she may face a serious criminal charge if there is sufficient evidence to support the claim that she knowingly, intentionally made a threatening statement that caused the victim to fear for his physical safety or that of a close loved one.
