Counter point: While this language may be more incendiary than that used by Trump before the January 6 "insurrection", it is still protected First Amendment speech.

incorrect. riot incitement is not protected speech.

But it should be... The second you restrict any speech... It is no longer free speech. It's allowed speech. Freedom... True freedom... Requires tolerating things even if you don't agree with them. You can call for riots all day long. (What happened in 1776 was completely illegal, but totally lawful) these things need to sort themselves out... And you do what you agree with. Accepting personal responsibility for your actions or failures to act. If you want to call something a "freedom" but only in the ways that you agree with it... You're not talking about freedom anymore.
