Twitter placed a notice on a tweet from Rep.

Matt Gaetz, R-Fla., after he tweeted about hunting "antifa" on Monday, but the social media platform did not take down the statement.

Gaetz's tweet was hidden with a notice saying it violated Twitter's rules for glorifying violence, similar to a notice that was placed on a tweet from President Donald Trump last week.

Gaetz posed a question about hunting antifa in reference to Trump's decision Sunday to label the group as domestic terrorists.

Chris Murphy, D-Conn., asked Twitter to take down the tweet entirely, claiming that gun violence survivors were scared that the comments would inspire some people to begin shooting into crowds.

Every real Democrat ran for President and you ran to twitter," Gaetz responded.
