A college student wrote a blog about killing tyrants. The Secret Service had questions

George Mason University student obtained a visit from the president Donald Trump Secret service After publishing article On his blog, the salon was not supposed to be that attention could even help him get a job even. First amendment Experts say the visit is suitable for a greater campaign by the administration that aims to intimidate its critics.
Nicholas Decker, a PhD student at George Masson University, has been visited, Premium As a “evaluation of criminal behavior”. It seems that Decker published an article entitled “When should we kill them?” He has a blog that raises the issue of when violence becomes justified in the face of tyranny.
“Your threshold may differ from mines, but you must have one. If the current administration should cancel the elections; if it should engage in the fraud in the electoral process; if it should be suppressed the discourse of its opponents, and its political opponents are imprisoned; if the will of Congress is ignored; if the court orders should be rejected directly; all these reasons are the revolution.”
Against the campaign background to criticizing administration and anti -war demonstrators, a visit to the secret service was criticized as an attempt to reduce the rights of the first amendment, by organizations such as the Foundation for Rights and Individual Expression, which said that the behavior of George Mason University “has no place at an American university binding on the first amendment.” In response, defenders of the President fired a wave of online harassment against the student, although Decker said this had not been translated into personal harassment, at least so far.
Decker, a self -described liberal who graduated with a Bachelor’s degree in economics from George Mason University in 2023, helped collect funds to search for sexual transgender youth and refugee match with herders in the United States. When asked if he was concerned that the accident might make it difficult for him to get a job in the future, Decker said, in fact, “I think this helps me,” noting the fact that he drew attention to his work.
In the interview, Decker, whose blog often focused on the liberal economic policy and is characterized by interviews with advanced right -wing commentators such as Richard Hanania, often discussed commercial policy, saying, in his opinion, that the Trump administration is “spiritually left”, which he portrayed as a bad thing. He cited the president’s confirmation of definitions and “collections on free institutions, price controls, commercial barriers, etc. – Cartel in the economy, and many very bad things.”
When asked about the advice he gave to other students facing Trump’s campaign to criticize the administration, Decker said, “I certainly think the free expression is very important.”
“This is another margin in which the gains from trade occur in terms of connecting ideas across the borders that may be implicit, and this is one of the reasons that make export benefits not equal in importing barriers such as tariffs, though Larner is similarDecker said.
Decker has other objections to the Trump administration, citing how, in his opinion, “its opponents’ imprisonment, canceled the visas of thousands of students, imposed taxes on us without our approval and seeks to destroy the institutions that oppose them.” But in his article, while speaking to a salon, he preferred commercial policy to talk about his private meeting with law enforcement.
While the secret service in the end did not decide to arrest Decker, other students were not lucky. On Wednesday, pro -Palestinian students at the University of Michigan were temporarily detained after the FBI agents were cut off from the door of their apartment, accusing them of “multi -specialized sabotage”, a claim that the agency had not been inspected.
Intuition I also mentioned that some administration officials are considering providing criminal charges against the administration’s critics, based on the assertion that they are helping terrorists. Sib Gorsa, chief anti -terrorist manager at the White House, alluded to this plan in an interview with NewsMax.
“You have to ask yourself, do you help them technically and incite them, because helping criminals and terrorists to incite them is a crime,” Gorka said.
Wayne Unger, a professor at the Faculty of Law at the University of Koinibiac, said in a salon that in the context of the actions of the current administration, the movements like that against Decker should be interpreted as an attempt to “cool the speech or revenge for a specific discourse.”
“We do not want to pursue the police speech as much as it calms it,” said Unger. “For individuals who choose to remain unknown in your peers and reports, I think it is clear that there is an effort to calm speech. For what it deserves, I think immigration issues against international students may be the strongest clarification of the administration’s efforts to attack the first amendment and the rights of the first amendment.”
UNGER also said, given that George Mason University is a public school, officials are obligated to respect the rights of the first amendment. While he said that the university did not do anything unconstitutional by referring a student about the words they believe may be criminal for law enforcement, he said that the university has no legal basis to discipline Decker.
On Friday, Decker Salon told that he had reported that the school would not follow any disciplinary action against him.
In response to a request to comment from a salon, the school said in a statement: “A student of George Mason University in the concerned article published an article on social media that calls for the killing of federal officials, which was referred by officials to the university police for evaluation. Because of the evaluation, the university conditions that are allocated by indicating indicating the indication of the indication of the indication of the indication of the indication of the indication of the indication of the indication of the indication of the indication of the indication of the indication of the indication of the indication of the indication of the indication of the indication of the indication Referring to the reference to the reference to the signal.
Lerissa Leedsky, a professor of constitutional law at the University of Florida, told a salon that she believes that the secret service made the right decision to choose a lack of arrest. But she indicated that, given the previous attempts of Trump’s life, there is a reason that makes them take more serious threats.
“This is not an incitement, it is not a real threat,” said Leedsky. “I think it is assumed that violence will be justified with a kind of sub -text that criticizes management.”
