RE: PAULINE HANSON’S TWEET PROSECUTION: A THREAT TO FREE SPEECH

When a person issues instructions from a place of authority, there is always a threat of violence. Thinking otherwise is just naive. This is why government officials need to be held to a higher standard.

If a member of Parliament tells someone to jump off a cliff, they should understand that a large number of rabid constituents are likely to take that as permission to throw someone off a cliff. There is plenty of precedent for this.
