Responding to a tweet over the weekend, Penn State University's associate professor of communications at the Greater Allegheny campus Zack Furness called for the assassination of former President Donald Trump.

Furness was responding to a tweet Saturday depicting then-President Trump in Puerto Rico, who visited after Hurricane Irma and Maria devastated the island.  ...

In response, Furness wrote, "Should've been Lincoln’d five minutes later," referring to the assassination of President Abraham Lincoln in 1865. Following the Twitter reply, it appears Furness has deleted his main Twitter account.

This isn't the first time that Furness has called for violence.

In late September 2020, Furness wrote a tweet listing several journalists, including The Post Millennial's editor-at-large Andy Ngo, and prominent conservative figures that he would like to "launch" towards the sun. ...

The Post-Millennial


The he-man in question

I'm sure twitter will lockdown his account immediately since he has called for the assassination of a President and we can surely expect action from Penn State also. What am I saying he's liberal fascist POS so he's protected. Why is it always liberal who create wet dream movies and stories about republican Presidents being assassinated or dying but scream like stuck pigs if conservatives ever just criticize one of their chosen idiots?

I seem to recall Germany's national socialists saying virtually the same thing about Jews.

Advocating violence against specific, identifiable, individuals.  And yet, he still has a full twitter account, and the Feds aren't breathing down his neck.

Where are the pre-dawn no-knock raids on this feckless a-holes house?

Sounds like exclusionary, non-diverse, intolerant hate speech.
