Another one of the O.G.’s of the conservative blogosphere, @GayPatriot Bruce Carroll, de-platformed ==> https://t.co/6wM6LO6f7e

Really outrageous that @Twitter would terminate @GayPatriot‘s account. Just outrageous.

Carroll had been suspended before for referring to Chelsea Manning as Bradley Manning and as a traitor. Twitchy reported on Monday that Carroll’s back-up account, @BruceOnLoose, had also been suspended.

The hypocrisy of Twitter choosing to suspend Carroll while tolerating violent threats from those on the Left toward those on the Right did not go unnoticed:

If his stuff is how @jack wants to define “hateful,” that’s fine. We just want equal application of the rules. But it’s kind of hard to forget things like the big “meh” when @DLoesch’s kids literally had her kids threatened.
