The Fulford File | “Run Them Down”–INSTAPUNDIT’s Glenn Reynolds Suspended For Tweeting While White

James Fulford  September 22, 2016

Glenn Reynolds of Instapundit  (a law professor expert on  First and Second Amendment rights) was temporarily suspended from Twitter for the tweet above, in which he said,  referring to the black rioters surrounding and stopping vehicles in Charlotte: “Run them down.”
This was apparently considered advocating violence, or possibly “hate,” by the Twitter authorities.
In addition to being suspended by Twitter, he’s also being “investigated” by his University, the University of Tennesse at Knoxville. The Knoxville News Sentinel quotes Law School Dean Melanie D. WIlson [Email her]as calling Reynolds’ post an “irresponsible use of his platform” and saying “My colleagues and I in the university’s leadership support peaceful disobedience and all forms of free speech, but we do not support violence or language that encourages violence.” Apparently not even in self-defense.[Tennessee investigates professor’s tweet about Charlotte, by Megan Boehnke, , September 22, 2016]
Reynolds writes

TWITTER HAS UNBLOCKED MY ACCOUNT ON CONDITION OF DELETING THE OFFENDING TWEET. But lest I be accused of airbrushing, it’s preserved here. Still planning on quitting Twitter, though, after making a few points. Earlier post is here.
UPDATE: From Nick Gillespie at Reason: In Defense Of InstaPundit’s Glenn Reynolds. “Whatever you think of the tastefulness of his suggestion regarding the protesters in Charlotte, the idea that he is seriously inciting any sort of actual or real threat is risible.”

Reginald Denny was the trucker who allowed himself to be pulled from his enormous vehicle and was  beaten by four black youths:
