IANAL either, in recent streams from Judge Fleischer (Houston, Texas, USA) there have been some cases (yes, plural) where repeatedly texting a victim with life threats, or even texting a victim's friend to pass on a threat to the victim, have been considered a "terrorist threat".

As for the "sane country" part... 🤷... but from a strictly technical point of view, I think it makes sense.

I once knew a guy who was married to a friend, and he had a dog. He'd hit his own dog to make her feel threatened. Years went by, nobody did anything, she'd come to me crying, had multiple miscarriages... until he punched her, kicked out of the car, and left stranded on the road after a hiking trip. They divorced, went their separate ways, she found another guy, got married again, and nine months later they had twins.

So... would it've been sane to call what the guy did, "terrorism"? I'd vote yes.
