I admit I was just judging both sociopolitical spectrums and just using my own personal feelings but what if such a video did spark violence and reactions en masse. How would you determine the video as threatening then?
I apologize for making this seem overly complicated by the way
I didn't say it was 'acceptable', I said it didn't seem to be promoting violence.
I don't care if it sparks reactions (for example, I'm reacting to it right now, and I haven't shot anyone). If it sparks violence, I will dejectedly admit I was wrong. But I still wouldn't consider the vid as 'threatening'. As for 'en masse', I doubt very much that the majority of gun owners are going to see this and start looking for NYT reporters to shoot.

Interesting.
As I said before about this and the Kathy picture. I cannot care about this stuff a whole lot because it always gets interpreted through political lenses which makes a lot of bias and I just don't care about these things and don't acknowledge them. I only hate them because I have to turn of any political media I enjoy because they will be ranting about it while I just have to sit in my chair trying to ignore the overreactions. Us right wingers love our lengthy diatribes about simple moronic matters and I am sure you know this already.
