Just a reminder:
Users agree not to post calls to violence (this is not protected speech under the 1st Amendment) or specific threats of violence.
Yup. Understood. I'm naming no one or any location or any action.
I'm making an unassigned statement.
Thanks for posting this to remind everyone.

Brandenburg vs Ohio
There is a difference between calls to violence, which is constitutionally protected speech, and incitement to imminent lawless action.
The Court used a two-pronged test to evaluate laws affecting speech acts: 1. speech can be prohibited if its purpose is to incite or produce imminent lawless action; and 2. doing so is likely to incite or produce such an action.
I'm sure war doesn't count as violence.
