        @KevinAllred dictators go for profs, journos, writers first = critical thinking is harmful to their blind rule.

        you are correct. Those two deleted tweets are horrific and unethical. I hope *all* threats being leveled will be condemned.

        being a progressive doesn't auto make you a critical thinker, and shutting down violent rhetoric doesn't make a tyranny

        it will? Leftists have felt extremely empowered to be thought police the past 8 years. Left are new Puritans. @MarcieBianco

        Guy makes violent threat on Twitter, police take him in for psych evaluation. Guardian journalist blames Trump. This is left-wing fake news.

      @tealtan to be honest, his tweet was about buying a gun and shooting people. It did not read as a "rhetorical" question.
