The former. The bad actors are responsible for their own bad acts. Start punishing the people you believe influenced them, and we get into the murky realm of thought crime, speech codes and preemptive censorship.

Whatever harm the trolls do is dwarfed by what we would suffer at the hands of the speech police.
