ALBAWABA - Former Veteran and X (Formerly known as Twitter) user Lucas Gage is the talk of social media after being suspended on the same social media platform following a series of swatting incidents and harassment. 

Big users on X including Dr. Anastasiya, Jake Shields, and Sam Parker took to Gage's defense as they tagged Elon Musk and demanded him to investigate the matter. Moreover, tags to support were also put in captions to get attention. 

Did X suspend former Veteran Lucas Gage over Israel criticism?

Speculations say that Gage was suspended for six months on X for burning the Jewish Talmud which came after a series of swatting incidents and harassment against him since he was very judgmental of Jews and Israel before being suspended. According to X guidelines, doing something like this is considered a breach of guidelines.

Some also speculated that the suspension came from another video where Gage was seen cutting the Israeli flag in half.

One user accused X of "Double standards" and added, "Yet, videos of Bibles being burned and American flags being burned are not considered hate speech."

Another added, "That's weird. I've seen a bunch of other religious books burned on X and no one received a ban for it." 

Someone referenced Salwan Momika, who's an Iraqi individual who burned the Holy Quran but is still running free on X without suffering any consequences. 

X Users also put Gage's family in danger

Former MMA fighter Jake Shields wrote, "Why is Lucas Gage suspended? He’s been swatted 4 times in the past 24 hours so ridiculous he’s all suspended @elonmusk @Lucas_Gage_"

According to users on X, Lucas Gage was not the only victim of harassment since his family also took a blow since they were also threatened. Moreover, Gage also allegedly received a plethora of death threats.
