Actually there was a lot of discussion about this sort of thing after the baseball attack.
But in any case, we can't limit freedom of speech because of "unreasonable" implications of speech. Simply saying you hate Pelosi, isn't grounds for any reasonable person to think you try to kill her with a hammer. But if someone said, "we need to kill her" then that is much more prosecutable IMO.
Unfortunately what probably works best to avoid these sorts of incidents is critical thinking and common sense. I do think the echo chambers on the internet create less of this - so these sorts of things will happen more frequently.
