Dr. John Lott talked to Steve Gruber on the Michigan Talk Network about Twitter locking Lott’s account for tweeting about the New Zealand mosque killer’s political views.

“Twitter has locked my account. I can’t post anything or read messages from other users. The reason? In March, I tweeted that the perpetrator of the New Zealand mosque shooting was ‘a socialist, environmentalist, who hates capitalists & free trade.’ I also wrote that the killer believed his attack would ‘lead to more gun control’ in New Zealand and the United States.“

Here are the first 7 minutes of the 9 minute interview.
