Verum Serum brought it to attention and talk radio pounded the message home. Now the Occupy Wall Street protester who threatened to firebomb Macy’s department store is in custody for threatening terrorism.

Nkrumah Tinsley, 29, was busted after cops saw his tirade at Zuccotti online, where he was recorded on video claiming he would torch the city during Thursday’s mass protest.

“On the 17th [of Nov.\], we’re going to burn New York City to the f—ing ground,” an angry Tinsley told a crowd of demonstrators in the video posted on Tuesday.

“In a few days, you’re going to see what a Molotov coctail can do to Macy’s.”

Tinsley, of Harlem, was charged with making terroristic threats.

Conducting violent acts against a civilian population for political or religious gain is the very definition of terrorism. So the charge of threatening as much seems appropriate. This is apparently the guy:

Hey, remember when Tea Partiers threatened to firebomb department stores? Yeah, me neither. Yet the media presented Tea Partiers as radicals and these Marxist morons as mainstream Americans angry over low taxes for corporations.
