Two detestable online posts - two opposite reactions

A musician in Alabama posts that he is willing to go to the border and shoot illegal aliens:

An Alabama musician said he has lost work after writing on social media that he would “volunteer to shoot” migrants illegally attempting to enter the U.S.Rachel Kay, a woman who’s helped spread the post over social media, told AL.com she was "flabbergasted" by its content.

"When Phillip first stated that he would shoot innocent children/families – I was flabbergasted. I couldn't believe my eyes," Kay said. "I am glad this is getting out - we need to put an end to this hate – and any death threats. I am surprised so many people are supporting him."

Meanwhile, Occupy WallStreet advocates murdering ICE Agents:

“If an ICE agent tries to take your child at the border, don’t panic,” the first blurb reads.

The next steps read: “2. Pull your child away as quickly as possibly by force. 3. Gently tell your child to close his/her eyes and ears so they won’t witness what you are about to do.”

The cartoon then advises to “grab the ICE agent from behind and push your knife into his chest with an upward thrust,” causing the agent’s sternum to break.

“Reach into his chest and pull out his still beating heart,” the next step reads. “Hold his bloody heart out for all other agents to see, and tell them that the same fate awaits them if they f--- with your child again.”

The reaction? It's Satire...
Others said they reported the tweet within hours of the graphic content being posted, but still took hours to be taken down. It’s unclear if Twitter or Occupy Wall Street deleted the post.

However, the account seemingly referenced the cartoon by tweeting Tuesday a dictionary definition of “satire” with the caption: “For those who are confused.”
