I never, ever thought I’d say this… but good for Ezra Klein. Vox editor Emmett Rensin sent out a series of tweets calling for people to riot wherever Donald Trump goes. The quote is, “Advice: If Trump comes to your town, start a riot.” That is unacceptable and is incitement to chaos and violence. When the founder of Vox, Ezra Klein, heard this had happened, he quickly denounced it and suspended Rensin as he should have. Regardless of your political opinion, you do not have a right to get your violence on over this election.
From TheBlaze:
Not 24 hours after Vox editor Emmett Rensin published tweets prompting his followers to riot if Donald Trump comes to their towns, Ezra Klein, the publication’s founder, has suspended him.
“If Trump is Hitler,” Rensin tweeted late Thursday, “then you’ve got no business condemning rioters. If he isn’t, you’ve got no business pretending normal is better.”
The suspended Vox worker also asserted that it’s “never a shame to storm the barricades set up around a fascist.”
In a statement published Friday afternoon, Klein wrote that while “we encourage our writers to debate and disagree,” Rensin’s “direct encouragement of riots crosses a line between expressing a contrary opinion and directly encouraging dangerous, illegal activity.” “We welcome a variety of viewpoints, but we do not condone writing that could put others in danger,” the statement continued. Trump’s followers have for the most part been peaceful and have not caused this sort of upheaval. The violence and antagonizing has primarily all been on the side of the leftists and radicals. They keep ratcheting up the hate mongering and the violence is escalating… at this rate, someone will get killed over all this. It’s good to know there are sane voices on the left calling for this to stop. Let’s hope they listen.
