Been applied to other people lately, but I would answer by a simple : how the fuck is he not in jail or fined yet ?
I don't want to restrain liberty of opinion or the ability to speak it, but in the current climate, shit like this is irresponsible in the highest order. It boggles the mind that a public figure can behave like that and nourish the fire.
We have extremely lax speech laws in this country. You basically have to incite imminent lawless action and targeted violence to be held accountable.
Example: "Kill all Jews" is fine. "Kill GaimeGuy, that particular Jew" is not.
It's fucked up. So you have public officials advocating mass cleansings of millions of people, and the courts say that because they are so broad in their advocacy it's perfectly fine.
I mean, I admit, I've made statements on here where I've said things like 'The only thing that would cause Republican [politicians] to change and do what's right would be threat of violence against them and their families,' but that's me trying to emphasize how ptiful the state of civil debate and discussion is in this country's conservative wing. I'm not trying to drum up a violent revolution. I'm not saying "You have to go after their families" like the god damn President is saying about gang members, immigrants, and enemy combatants. I'm not a guy with millions of viewers on youtube or cable directly telling people to literally arm themselves and lock on. I'm a random guy shouting into the void about how frustrating the situation is, and that's exactly where the line should be.
