No, it is not at least not in United States which is where Broman lives

The technical term is malicious harassment, which has various definitions depending or your state of residency, but is in fact illegal. Besides the fact that this is all a moot point because OP is overdramatizing Broman's claim, as it was a passing comment made only to demonstrate his loyalty to his friends, not a promise made with intent.

Edited by Schrecht: 6/6/2015 12:38:59 AMSo everyone on the internet should get a lawyer? I don't think so, because although I'm not a lawyer, every place I can find malicious harassment defined, it involves either physical violence, or threats, and always involve some protected category of person. Nowhere can I find a definition which involves simply saying mean things.
