Twitter permits #AssassinateTrump hashtag

On Friday, the Gateway Pundit said that the social media site Twitter is allowing a hashtag advocating the death of President-elect Donald J. Trump. A search for the hashtag, #AssassinateTrump, finds reaction from both sides of the political aisle, with liberals using it to advocate murder while Trump supporters expressed outrage.

“Why bother rioting when so many Americans have guns. Wait for one of his public speaches, (sic) snipe him,” one person tweeted Thursday.
And it seems the hashtag has been around for quite a while:

But now that Trump has won the election, many are demanding action:

If you think that #assassinatetrump is a legit idea then you are no better than isis. Killing of humans and destruction of property is wrong

It’s not just wrong, it’s illegal. But that has never stopped liberals who think it’s perfectly okay to advocate murdering conservatives and Republicans.
Some expressed anger that Twitter would even allow such a hashtag to exist:
Thanks for proving @Twitter a liberal hate machine. You ban @Nero and won't allow criticism of @AnitaSarkeesia but approve #AssassinateTrump

Right — like Clinton faced consequences for having a homebrew server and placing our national security at risk…
What makes this worse is the fact that unhinged liberals have actually used the social media platform to advocate the murder of Trump and his supporters.
The question now is: Will Twitter do the right thing and dump the hashtag? Or will it continue to let liberals use it to call for Trump’s murder?
