New Hampshire Libertarian Party shares and deletes post that suggests assassinating Harris would be heroic

The Libertarian Party of New Hampshire faced immediate backlash after writing in a social media post that anyone who assassinates Vice President Kamala Harris would be an “American hero.”

The party made the post on Sunday before deleting it the same day, according to a screenshot shared by New Hampshire political journalist Colin Booth.

“Anyone who murders Kamala Harris would be an American hero,” the post read.

The party then deleted the post and issued a statement.

“We deleted a tweet because we don’t want to break the terms of this website we agreed to,” the party wrote. “It’s a shame that even on a ‘free speech’ website that libertarians cannot speak freely. Libertarians are truly the most oppressed minority.”

It’s a shame that even on a ‘free speech’ website that libertarians cannot speak freely. Libertarians are truly the most oppressed minority.

…Even if you were an “oppressed minority”, calling for an outright assassination does NOT qualify as “free speech” by ANY definition.

But these guys are white ‘muricans, NOT brown muslims! Ergo they cannot POSSIBLY be terrorists! /s

So is Ryan Routh an ‘American Hero’? We’ll wait.

You lot couldn’t in deleting that post, though.

I bet that posted on Xitter was saved, and by others, though: anything you say can and will be used as evidence against you in a court of law. You’ve forgotten one of the golden rules of what you’re using:

Whatever is put on the internet stays on the internet.

In Soviet America, oppression is by you.

“Libertarians are truly the most oppressed minority.”

I agree that it’s very oppressive to have to censor an incitement to treason, however, you’re not the most oppressed minority. There are still all those Christians who’ve been cruelly denied their right to scream abuse at abortion clinic patients and workers, and those poor neo-Nazis who just want to innocently exterminate hundreds of millions of people, and those loving fathers who just want to have a sexual relationship with their daughters. Don’t forget all those.

“Free speech advocates belong in death camps.” Will you defend my right to say that, or will you look the other way when I get the boot? If the latter, then you surely agree that free speech isn’t unlimited and you can’t just call for other people to die without consequence.

[Hopefully unnecessary disclaimer: I do not actually believe anyone belongs in “death camps”.]

Libertarian Party NH: “'Free speech doesn’t mean freedom from consequences of speech.' What’s that supposed to mean??? We libertarians know oppression, we get the most oppression, noone is more oppressed than us!!!”

Libertarians are truly the most oppressed minority.

Let us know when Libertarians are accused of eating people's cats.

Libertarians are truly the most oppressed minority.

Not oppressed enough apparently since you can whine about it on Twitter.

when Libertarians STAY HOME OUT OF FEAR because A GODDAMNED CANDIDATE FOR THE PRESIDENCY accused them of eating people's cats.

This is one of the reasons why the National Libertarian Party told the New Hampshire section to pound sand and go fuck themselves.

Seriously: now, the only most extreme action they could take is to commit acts of terror.

“We deleted a tweet because we don’t want to break the terms of this website we agreed to,” the party wrote. “It’s a shame that even on a ‘free speech’ website that libertarians cannot speak freely. Libertarians are truly the most oppressed minority.”

But nothing about “oh, we deleted a tweet because don’t advocate MURDER”???

Terrorist threats and promotion are not free speech.

I can’t quite put my finger on it, but somehow I get this impression you’re not being entirely serious in saying this.
