Abundant tweets about civil liberties & national security. "Has a longer memory than an elephant & keeps more records than Jim Comey.” Legendary potty mouth.

    I don't think this merited Twitter jail.https://twitter.com/T_S_P_O_O_K_Y/status/994364880835792897 …

    Well the brownshirts at @TwitterSupport suspended my account for 12 hours to try and intimidate my speech...since when are "whores" who protect and defend men like @AGSchneiderman a "protected" class? And what is "hateful" here? Where is there a threat? This is simple harassment pic.twitter.com/8GeK4gAHTm

        Correct me if I’m reading this wrong, but he called a woman a whore on Twitter...?

        To be clear, I agree with you. But it’s not something I would consider tweeting to a female these days, he should know better.

        Yeah. I’m betting all it takes is for the recipient to complain.

        Honestly @TwitterSupport is a joke. They are perfectly okay with fake bots and trump’s idiotic and dangerous bullying and crazy ranting... but we are all held to a higher standard. Makes sense 🙄

        As a nobody, I think this has more to do with reporting than actual review. Happened to me last week for calling Alex Jones show a 'clown car'https://twitter.com/jimmyotx/status/992495297812197377 …

        Was sent to Twitter jail for the first time yesterday. A 12-hour punishment that started once I deleted the offending tweet. Apparently calling the show of Alex Jones a “clown car” is hate speech. So instead I will say @RealAlexJones is a clown car. His show is garbage. pic.twitter.com/mIlYJrNIJF

        Yea, it was nearly as offensive as other bannable offenses, like saying "shitwhipe". :)

        I don't call people names on Twitter, but when people do it to me I don't report them. People should be able to say what they want, as long as it's not threatening.
