Is there any way to interpret these comments as anything but a call for mass shootings at Silicon Valley tech companies? https://t.co/t3dwL8ngOT

NEW: Tonight Florida Congressman Matt Gaetz, who is under investigation over allegations of prostitution and public corruption, suggested conservatives shoot people in Silicon Valley for their “cancel culture.” pic.twitter.com/5cOIyAnJDT

On May 7 in FL I gave remarks virtually identical to those from GA last night on the Constitution.

Nobody freaked out (more than usual).
Twitter (and thus lazy MSM reporters) fell for a creative edit that distorted the context.
Listen to the whole thing

I guess I shouldn’t be surprised anymore. But every day brings fresh horrors that I had considered unthinkable just a few years ago. A sitting Congressman calling … to arms because he doesn’t like a certain tech policy? WTF? And why does this not have consequences? Why?! https://t.co/JZBzw7kDiY

In 2018 three Google employees were shot by a woman who thought YouTube was censoring her. https://t.co/1VpdEYJGPc https://t.co/nEEzho0mB6

Yesterday: Young children lost their parents in a senseless mass shooting in Silicon Valley.

Today: Gaetz asks for more. https://t.co/dkzEmzhh0X
Dear @GOPLeader: You need to remove Rep Matt Gaetz from the House Judiciary Committee. It’s a conflict of interest for Gaetz to have oversight over the DOJ that is investigating him for sex crimes.

Also, Gaetz is urging people to shoot Silicon Valley employees. https://t.co/OccZKeoyVi
Republicans are inciting violence against America. And getting away with it. This is crazy.????#DemVoice1

Matt Gaetz suggested that followers should use guns against Silicon Valley companies in retaliation for "canceling" conservatives. https://t.co/00oLfxLb3M via @HuffPostPol
Hey @Twitter, @Jack, it might be time to purge Matt Gaetz from Twitter since he just incited violence against your company.#BanMattGaetzhttps://t.co/uXeEOph8dO

Wow! Matt "The younger the better" Gaetz just called on Republican voters to MURDER social media executives, because he want's to see Trump spew his lies on an open forum.https://t.co/yqmBvqDncv

@mattgaetz you dumb$&@k! do you not know anything at all? Silicon Valley just had a shooting at a VTA union meeting this week. Are you really so afraid of “cancel culture” that you’re willing to shoot people over it? Go to jail already you pedo! https://t.co/AwXZGHpdtZ
— Crazy Times & Crazy Wines (@swankywineguru) May 28, 2021
In fairness, Gaetz didn't say "shoot," but he might as well have when he said: "We have a Second Amendment in this country, and I think we have an obligation to use it.” (see below)

“The clip cut out Gaetz's reference to the First Amendment, which makes it clear he is not calling on supporters to shoot Silicon Valley employees, but instead to simply exercise their rights to freedom of speech and assembly.”https://t.co/SLTL2bATmS
