Yes, when people apologize for things we generally move on since the person acknowledge their error.

Let’s be honest, it’s blowing up because the California political machine is threatened by this guy, and tearing him down for a small transgression means they’ll hold onto the reins of power even longer.

A death threat by one of the richest persons = A small transgression when they apologise after the fact

Seriously?

If I say to you "die slow", would you read it as me threatening to murder you?

Are you implying that it's not a threat of any kind? Regardless of how it's enacted? I would certainly rather be threatened with a nice day.

Especially in this climate, where the tip of a hat causes anonymous people to pile on and send threats via mail, it wouldn't be as simple as brushing it off.

The worst part isn't usually the initial threat, it's the piling on afterwards that can last for months and years afterwards.

Some people read it as a death threat but they mostly seem to be people who dislike him or his politics. To me that seems like it's being exploited for political reasons. Which Garry obviously made easy to do. Not the same thing as an actual death threat though.

Aren't we all dying slowly Day by Day, one way or another?

>>chomsk+j1
Nobody would seriously take that as a death threat. No one.

But if you’re a politician, it makes sense to claim you “fear for your life”.

Like I said, they want to get rid of this guy since he’s a political opponent.
