There’s a difference between free speech, and openly celebrating murder.
The First Amendment restricts GOVERNMENT from taking action against those who speak freely. It does not restrict Citizens or private associations.

See what happens ...
No. Don’t. You don’t have to ... you know perfectly well what would happen.
And that’s my point. Freedom of Speech doesn’t imply Freedom from Consequences ... when those consequences come from your fellow citizens.
Right! What’s the cliche that the left always uses when conservatives complain about having their free speech censored?…”Well, you can’t yell ‘fire’ in a crowded theater.” Calling for the murder of your political opponents, or even of the President, is FAR more serious than falsely claiming there’s a fire, to use their analogy. It’s also illegal.
Punish them all to varying degrees, according to how explicit their personal threats are. And yes, make their employers aware of what they’re saying. They are literally assassinating people, and actively planning to murder even more. I’m not too concerned about the non-existent “free speech right” to advocate murder.

Openly celebrating the murder of a well spoken political opponent who would one day maybe become President, is anti-Christian and anti-democracy. It is even worse than celebrating murder, if that can be possible.
Just because one is a Christian doesn’t mean a person must act like a wimpy fool.
“There’s a difference between free speech, and openly celebrating murder.”
I disagree. There is no difference here. The only difference is that the complaining leftist celebrating murder believes that nobody (under penalty of death) should be allowed to disagree with them or judge them harshly for the free speech that they choose.
Exactly.
Right? If you’re a healthcare/public safety worker celebrating death, that doesn’t make me feel confident as a patient. Same if you’re a police officer.
