Agreed. Threatening any president with violence is over the top.

Gee what happened to the first amendment?

It never included threatening to kill someone.

The First Amendment is not an absolute right. There have been limits placed on it. For example, laws against defamation, libel and slander; it is illegal to incite crowds to violence; obscenity can be regulated.

It’s never been legal to threaten to kill anyone.
