Finding Weapons of Mass Destruction at Home

A crystal meth-maker has been accused of two counts of manufacturing a nuclear or chemical weapon .

“This is a two-edged sword,” [district attorney] Wilson said. “Not only is the drug methamphetamine in itself a threat to both society and those using it, but the toxic compounds and deadly gases created as side products are also real threats.”

Ooh ooh ooh! Can we arrest the car manufacturers next?

But this is an undiscrimiinate use of strong prosecutin tools, which would easily lead to he categorization of even minor crimes as "terrorist ascts". Think protesters being accused of such a thing, just because of their leanings. Slippery slope, this one.
