    yes i would. Fucking hell. speech has meaning. And hanging people in effigy is easily considered a threat; particularly when you look at the history of lynch mobs. Are people allowed to say “I’m going to come for you and your family and hang you?” absolutely. But that protection doesn’t mean the government can’t lock your ass up for making terroristic threats.

      “I’m going to come for you and your family and hang you?”

      Bahaha. Are you equating a direct, verbal, actionable threat with a fucking Christmas tree ornament?
