Why isn't Hal Turner in jail?

Hal Turner of halturnershow.com seems to be crossing the line from free speech to inciting violence. Or not?

Take a look at this screen cap of his archive, and note the two articles on the right.

I have to wonder if he's had any visits from the FBI over this. My wild-ass-guess is that he has, and they've decided not to go forward with prosecution. However, the man did say that he'd volunteer to assassinate judges. Perhaps all he's lacking is a political action group?

It's illegal to kill judges. It's illegal to threaten them. It's illegal to incite violence against them. I'd call this a clear case of inciting to violence, wouldn't you?
