OK. Without even arguing that at all, here’s the thing: What about the people tweeting death threats to President-elect Trump? THAT isn’t hate speech?

Indeed. Take a look:

Some of them have deleted their tweets (but Twitchy is forevah), yet they still have active, non-suspended accounts. Why do those twisted individuals still have accounts and why aren’t they suspended as well? Twitter users wonder:
How is this possible they got to keep their accounts? SMH!!!

Hi @Support does making death threats on @twitter violate TOS? Have any of these accounts been suspended? https://t.co/6WlPNGwiWl
