Have to copy this over here because people need to know that sometimes we get whack jobs here that high jack a "normal" conversation.

I feel fairly confident the detective investigating these crimes understands I would never commit such crimes, and IF, I say again, IF, I was stupid and insane enough to do this, then I would NEVER use my computers from home. I have enough of a computer background that the police would understand I'm not a complete fool to attempt such an insane act from any computer I might own.
Anyway, there has to be a motive to commit a crime. People don't just randomly commit this type of crime without some motive to do so. In my case, there is no motive or reason for me to do this.

@ebikesrc Everything you are saying about what happened to you is mighty fantastical. The odds of something going down the way you have this situation in your mind are so slim that it is hard to even quantify the chances. Frankly, people just aren't interesting enough to go after them and spoof their ip to commit felonies with, no matter how annoying you might have been on a message board. In my career of hearing stories like yours, I've gotten very jaded."
Well, the truth is it will not be hard to prove I was very controversial at that Forum. I was mentioned at least two times on the radio show's introduction that I was very controversial, and I was probably needing to tone it down a bit too. Some people on a thread actually posted they wanted to get my IP address too, so that's when I got really concerned about protecting my IP address. The owner of the radio show and Forum has helped me to log as evidence I was using the free VPN and IP protection online too.
These 2 Federal crimes, which are very serious "threat crimes", were likely "prank" "swat" crimes. By that I mean crimes that were committed by criminals to set-up a victim or victims to involve the police "to swat" the intended target and victim(s). I have no connection whatsoever to any of the targets where the police were involved also. It was only my IP that somehow was "spoofed" or used "to swat" the intended targets.
I was never under arrest, and the Fed detective told me about 2 weeks later that he does not think I committed these crimes. I certainly could never even contemplate doing such an insane thing, nor am I incredibly stupid enough to do such things from traceable computers. (I have a verifiable computer background that lends evidence to the idea I know enough to never use my own computer equipment to do such things.)
It may be fantastical that some people wanted to "get me" from the Forum. But I was mentioned as a controversial person on the radio show for the Forum, and people there publicly posted they wanted to know my IP address too. I was posting often in debate "there" the entire time I was back online too, so that is the logical reasoning I'm using as to why "the trouble" may have begun there.
I may have never been the intended "swat target". Why? The "threat targets" were in a far away State I have no connection with whatsoever over my entire lifetime. The threats named names, so it is likely someone is connected to that person(s) and place that is far away with no connection to me personally. Only my IP was somehow connected to this. That's why I focus back to the Forum I was posting to.
I am paranoid now that someone could use my IP again to commit crimes. I have no idea how I was hacked or why. I am the victim of serious crimes too. I want to protect myself from this ever happening again. If I'm being targeted for some reason, then I need to actively protect myself as best I can.
This is truly why I started this thread.
