Earlier, we told you how Twitter gave a pass to a troll who called for Dana Loesch’s children to be murdered:
Apparently wishing the murder of a conservative woman’s children doesn’t violate @Jack @twitter @TwitterSupport terms of service. DISGUSTING! https://t.co/wMhunla7vA pic.twitter.com/wetynURQmk

We have no idea what took them so long, but it looks like the powers that be at Twitter finally decided that calling for the death of someone’s kids violates their rules:
An update to the Twitter account which was reported on — after initially claiming that the account didn’t violate TOS, Twitter just notified me that it re-reviewed the account and found it in violation. cc @peterjhasson@JazzShaw pic.twitter.com/7Y77oEiBw2

Only took them 18 hours or so to come to their senses. Better late than never, we guess.
Good…..about time!

Ridiculous that they didn't do the right thing to begin with

It shouldn’t’ve been this difficult.
I just wish Twitter would treat users consistently across the board. https://t.co/BBy2WqhRc8

Is that really so much to ask? Pick a damn lane, Twitter. And stay in it.
That should have been Twitter's first response. And the account should be locked permanently.

Do better, Twitter. Lord knows you’ve set the bar low enough.

Update:
The Twitter troll who declared that the murder of Dana Loesch’s children “needs to happen” would like everyone to stay classy. Won’t someone think of his mentions?
Well I'm gone for one day and what do I find? A shitstorm in the mentions. That's how you know it's still good ol' Twitter. Stay classy, everyone.

I don't feel a twinge of shame when a festering wormy little POS who wishes death on someone's kids over gun policy says "stay classy" like he has the slightest goddamned idea of what those words mean.
