Dan Arel's behavior over the last year or so has been utterly repugnant, but If you're celebrating his (current) demise, you're in no position to complain when the Left employs social media terror tactics.

It's only logical if you accept a particular premise, namely that actions are moral/immoral on their own account, regardless of whom they target. Replace that premise with "Whatever bad happens to people I dislike, is good" and you'll arrive at different conclusions.
Oh for god's sake, as a moral principle - 'whatever bad happens to people I dislike is good" really does justify the holocaust, murdering political opponents, your neighbor with the loud lawnmower, people tweeting irritating nonsense, etc. Seriously!?

Logically, you can say - Ah well, that person was bad, which justifies this thing which happened to him. But you can be absolutely certain your ideological opponents are going to say exactly the same thing to you - & then do the bad thing. It's bad politics. Also morally suspect.
