> I can understand having a policy against violent threats against
named individuals, but what's wrong with supporting violence against, for example, the police?

You have named the individuals: the police.


> You'd have to take the "left" out of "LBO" if you prohibit people
from advocating violence.

Why? Is advocating violence an essential component of that which is left?

Or maybe: not to allow the advocacy of violence violates an essential holding of the left (regarding speech and/or violence)?
