I know of one acquaintance whose account was terminated after he voiced sympathy for Stephen Paddock, the Las Vegas mass shooter - complete with what sounded like a veiled threat against then-Senator Kamala Harris.

He must have blown a gasket when his Twitter was, in fact, shuttered - not least because he really didn't think they would.

This is how out of touch with reality a lot of these people are.
