I stand by my comments. I am all for a call to action in the face of illiberal governance, but my correspondent made an unsubtle appeal to political violence. That is wrong.

Sorry, but grandiose political rhetoric, including "I stand by my comments", is a bad fit for the trivial medium of an internet forum.

As for 'unsubtle appeal to political violence', please abide by this site guideline: "Please respond to the strongest plausible interpretation of what someone says, not a weaker one that's easier to criticize. Assume good faith." It's not at all obvious that you read the comment correctly, and 'unsubtle' is a big overstatement.
