Doesn't sound like an electrician that I would want working for me or working for a contractor on my job site.

Joanne Hebda told “20/20.” “I thought it was a terroristic threat.”

This lady has got to be kidding? A terroristic threat

I do not think that word means what she thinks it means.

I guess anything can be linked to terrorism these days

I guess "nuisance" just doesn't get the emotions going strongly enough.

It's TERROR, I tell ya....... Oh, won't somebody think of the children?

Here in the US, some jurisdictions use the term "terroristic" to denote any criminal activity intended to instill fear of injury or death in a victim. In some areas, the term is quite old, predating 9/11 and was used to combat criminal gangs. It is also used to fight against crimes such as stalking...

"Terrorist" is now the go to word when filling in the offense blank on shady indictments and arrest reports.
