In yet another shocking example of the violent rhetoric coming from the hard-left, a socialist student group at Iowa State University has used their social media account to threaten to murder conservatives.
The threats have come in a series of Tweets that have left many horrified over the calls for violence. Amazingly, the school itself has claimed that calling for murder is “protected free speech.”
In one recent Tweet the group, Young Democratic Socialists of America, (YDSA) publicly calls for exterminating what amounts to tens of millions of Americans.
“The left has done a good job radicalizing juggalos, weebs, furries, but I will not rest until ‘hXc’ stands for hang+Xterminate capitalists,” the school administration backed group declared before eventually deleting the Tweet.
As Campus Reform noted, after the students brought the tweet to the attention of the university, they were told that this “falls under free speech” while being offered “resources” if the student felt threatened by a literal call for extermination. That’s right, school officials are defending this groups right to call for us to be murdered. Can you imagine if the roles were reversed?!

Probably against the law I mean one guy said he was gonna get a piece of Hillarys hair wht happend jail so where was his free speech these people should be jailed there talking about pre meditated murder not taking a piece of hair IDIOTS
ReplyDeleteIsn't there are federal law against making threats against the President?
ReplyDeleteIowa State University and its Board of Regents is walking on dangerous grounds by allowing this hate / anarchist group to be validated by them on Campus. Verbal threats are considered a crime and if anything happens to a student because of these tweets there will be lawsuits that will close the University. This is not protected by free speech. I would want a legal opinion if I was them.

ReplyDeleteTerroristic threats. Incitement to murder. Etc. Etc.
If the threats were made on university computers, or from the physical grounds of the university, or using a university email address, the university has an obligation to act. So would whatever social media site that was used.
Our First Amendment rights are expansive but they do not extend to advocating murder.
The university needs to hire some adults. And to suspend or expel some overwrought, under educated children.
Threatening to kill people is not free speech. It is unlawful and anyone doing it should be arrested for doing so. Even the dopey politicians who are doing so for show.
ReplyDeleteMake it go to court by having a club call for the extermination of muslims.
ReplyDeleteEntropy. Everywhere you look. Macro and micro.
It cannot be stopped.
It will get worse and these tender lilies, sensitive and all, TALK a lot of smack.
When rounds start ricocheting off their surroundings, I'll bet that bad-ace "exterminate" attitude will turn in to "MOMMY!!! MOMMY!!! HELP!!".
They better be careful of what they wish for......
Armed Americans outnumber sissy college tough guys by, I don't know, maybe by about 75 million? Their stupidity is allowing their mouth to overload their ace.
Entropy almost dictates a clash.
