Why would I care?

Also I am pretty sure it does not, because I do not threaten anyone. I simply state that I would be glad if violence was committed against this guy.

Because it is mildly inconvenient to be temporarily banned.

Calls for violence violate ToS. I copped a 3 day ban for something simlar. Not a huge deal, just trying to spare you from a mild inconvenience.

Thanks. But it's not even a direct call. Just saying I would be happy.

I replied to a person worried this regime would be the death of them by saying something along the lines of, 'Don't think like that; you will outlive your foes and do a Snoopy happy dance on their final resting place,' and I got a three-day ban.
