What part of the quote below suggests encouragement of violence? Seems like one person’s pov about what Kirk espoused.

> In one screenshot shared by the agency, a person identified as an Argentine national said Kirk “devoted his entire life spreading racist, xenophobic, misogynistic rhetoric.”

American Citizens have the right to offensive free speech in America, a foreigner wishing to obtain a VISA does not and would be an idiot to think he should be allowed to visit if he was posting things like "f... ck America"

The first amendment says "Congress shall make no law [...] abridging the freedom of speech."

It's not a right granted to only certain groups. It's a restriction on what Congress, and by extension the government, can do.

Ahhh.. 1A, but only for specific groups, in specific contexts, as long as you're ok with it. Yes, that's exactly what they meant when they wrote it. le sigh.

I hope your enjoying the current state of the country. It's people just like you that brought it about, so carry on with the winning!

It's a gross verbal onanism over someone's death, mixed with the typical baseless dehumanization. If you want this sort of person in your country, my condolences.

please point out any and all verbs or other terms that call for any kind of action. so you found 'remove', right? it's a call for ceasing friendship. is that considered violence?

And what's your excuse for most of the Republican party and its media supporters who regularly call for violence against people they don't like?
