THE VERY STRANGE TWITTER CASE.

You may recall that back in July while a Fox announcer at at pub in England was raving about the women's soccer champs, persons in the background were chanting, "Fuck Trump". Naturally this caused a stir.

In response arch liberal Laura Ingraham wrote, "What would the media/Lefts reaction have been if such a chant ever been directed at Obama in any bar?"

I found this such an absurd comment involving Obama that I tweeted, "It never would be you stupid bitch, and you've made yourself look even more unaware and ignorant by asking such a dumb question."

Now if you tweet, you will appreciate that this is mild verbal assault considering many far worse responses. Thus I was surprised when days later I was suspended from using Twitter for that very comment. Try as I might, I could not get a further explanation, nor any sense of when I might be reinstated. Today more than two weeks after my comment, I got the following e-mail from Twitter.
