The sentence describing "True Threat" is not complete, here is the complete one:

An act of speech or expression that is not protected by the First Amendment because it is done with the intention of placing a specific victim or group of victims in fear of unlawful violence.

This statement is True.

Federal courts sum up this part by stating that "true threats" are a historic exception to "the freedom of speech" protected by the First Amendment.
