What???......Nobody said you were encouraging him or encouraging others to do so. The whole thing started with-because of “X” behavior and the attention he is receiving this may not end well so it would be a good idea for people (not you) to stop encouraging him. As far as the crimes he has committed (unless he lied about doing it which may be worse), just because he was not convicted does not prove he did not commit them. We all know people that have not been convicted when they were guilty. But don’t mind me while I cower in the corner over here because he might find out who I am and come find me.Where did I encourage him? Where did I encourage others to encourage him? Go ahead and find that post and quote me and I'll own it.
I'm not even on Twitter, never have been. Social media is a scurge. My only point is that I don't view him as dangerous. You and others are welcome to fear him, I don't. It's a free country, people are allowed to do as they wish until they break a law. He's evidently not been convicted of any crimes. Until then it's allegations. UT is allowed to ban him. Twitter is allowed to ban him. I acknowledge he's a POS but I'm not scared of him.
It's your choice to be concerned with him. It's my choice not to be.What???......Nobody said you were encouraging him or encouraging others to do so.

But it’s even worse if he didn’t do it but confessed to it for the attention he craves and gets.No offense Soil. As much as I blame Invol for most everything, he does have a point. There are many occasions where confessions were forced under duress, or, for attention. Myriad reasons. The facts should show.
Ummm... I am not penalizing anyone. But, yes, we are making assumptions about potential behavior by using logical deductions. This used to be called wise. No one is saying lock him up because he might commit a crime. We’re saying please quit feeding his delusion.
But he has committed crimes, been arrested, been told not to come back on campus..... At what point do you start thinking maybe it’s not a good idea to encourage him?

It’s not so much about it being confirmed or not, as it Is about what he has said. He has told the world he did it In order to get attention which he got. People are loving it.Question, other than he himself has any of the bolded stuff been confirmed? I ask this because some people like to exaggerate events to inflate their own persona.
I have no first hand knowledge, but if you guys are talking about Andy, I remember buzz beyond his own account that he had been in trouble with the law. I believe there was some discussion of this on Swain event, even. But all that is foggy. There is a reason, however, that he is celebrating getting his 2nd amendment rights back, and I don't believe it is an act.Question, other than he himself has any of the bolded stuff been confirmed?

For better or worse the charges were dropped. Therfore no revoking of his rights.I take it you're against banning convicted pedophiles from elementary schools and individuals on the terror watch list from flying.
News flash: when you commit crimes you lose freedoms based on the likelihood of you committing another/worse crime. All for the safety of the rest of society.
And you're wrong, he has broken the law. Not sure how you don't know this, but forcing your way into a home is against the law and they could have shot him dead in self-defense. Pointing a gun in someone's face, not in self-defense, is also against the law. Shooting a handgun into the air, again, is against the law. None of those actions are harmless violations. Those are all serious and dangerous.
