It is unreal that Alex Jones can continue to harass an individual, let alone a teen, on the @YouTube platform and not get a “third strike”.
Would not be surprised if @TeamYouTube begins to see lawsuits aimed at them for amplifying these messages.

What you are proposing is a SLAPP ("strategic lawsuit against public participation") and those are illegal in the state of California, where Google (Youtube's parent company) is headquartered.

Mr. Hogg became a public figure through his own freely made choices. Criticism of a public figure, however illogical, is not harassment. It is protected speech. In fact, it's precisely the sort of speech that the founding fathers had in mind when they framed the 1st amendment.

Your attempt to argue that Hogg's status as a teen entitles him to special protection becomes particularly comical because of your failure to watch the calendar. David Hogg was born on April 12, 2000. He turned 18 a few weeks ago. He's legally an adult.

Read what we said again and get back to us. We did not argue anything of the sort. It has zero to do with the fact that he’s a teen and everything to do with Alex Jones using YouTube to amplify his attacks on people personally against their own Terms Of Service.

If they lay out specific rules and don’t enforce them and everyone from David Hogg to parents of Sandy Hook victims gets harassed based on his personal attacks on their platform, then we were wondering why they haven’t been sued yet.

Public criticism of a public figure is not harassment. I've already addressed this point, and you've dealt with that by breaking into the chain of tweets I set up, at a point prior to that at which I debunked your non-point. Instead of arguing honestly, you play games.
