And yes, I know its one person, but connected to the movement, and this crap is how it starts. Whoever this is, I hope they get jailed.

They need to start putting people in jail or at the very least exposing their monumental ignorance.

I agree. I never understood Twitter, SO many threats on there, and yet the accounts remain. Hell, even terrorists post on there! And I also think that they need to start jailing or otherwise penalizing folks that are calling for violence and/or death. It's a fine line, freedom of speech. What's the difference between "We need to start killing white cops" or "Start killing them white cops". And then I guess WHO is saying it, what is the audience. But then there are too many loopholes, they just need to be strict and go with jail. For example, someone writes the latter, but only has 7 friends, and therefore most think its useless anyway. At least until his friend shares it with his sister, who shares with her friend who has 90,000 friends.

Do the blacks really think they could win in a race war? Even me, I have enough ammo and guns to hold off a small army of them. I shoot accurately while they would shoot everything except what they are aiming for.
