I'm sure there are going to be some repercussions for the video he took down, but I don't think it's terrorism. Take some time on twitter and see what people rant about when they're angry or flustered, that doesn't make them terrorists. |
You don't think he has followers? He has over 1.8 million followers on facebook, 10,000 subscribers to his youtube channel, 70k followers on instagram, 8000 followers on twitter - you don't honestly think that they're all following/subscribed to laugh at him, right? They're mostly people who listen to what he has to say, and take him seriously.
And no, he was quite clearly saying that people SHOULD be going out and killing them. Not just comments like "I'd like to see how they'd respond if..." or things like that, which are the kinds of things that non-terrorists would say if they were angry or flustered. An angry person doesn't go out and encourage everyone who will listen to go out and kill people. They might comment that they're tempted to do it themselves. But they don't tell other people to do it.
We're not talking about some random guy on youtube with a tiny following. This is a guy who has a blue tick on his facebook page because he's a "public figure" whose identity had to be certified by Facebook. When someone like that puts out a youtube video saying "go out and make those abortion providing doctors fear for their lives", people listen.
