See?! Trump is inciting violence! Just as the media said.

They just fail to see that it is the left that is getting violent.

Liberals are saying we have to censor people whom the left threatens to riot against.

Volokh noted how such policy is divergent from the Supreme Court’s condemnation of the “Heckler’s Veto”:

“Sometimes the government says: ‘We need to suppress this guy who’s speaking on the street corner because we’re afraid somebody will get so upset at him that they’ll throw a punch, or worse.’ There, the Court says ‘Nope, you can’t do that.’ You can’t allow hecklers to essentially force the suppression of a person’s speech by threatening violence. You need to protect the speaker against the violence rather than suppressing the speaker.”
