The distinction comes down to expressing an intent, Vs expressing an opinion, I believe. Not overly complicated, you could even tweet it without leaving anything out.

So "I would like it if someone drowned him" is fine, but not "I will drown you" (which was what was tweeted). Also, surely if he did get drowned after someone suggested it that would also be a crime of inciting violence?
