Be safe out there. It’s a wild world.
What a fucking miscarriage of justice. Everyone involved in this should go to prison themselves.

I assume this former cop has some local enemies.

It’s clear they’re not MAGA while 90% of their peers are, so, yeah…

Holy shit, the post in question is so fucking benign too. We’re so fucking cooked.

Per the article, there was a Perry County near by that for some reason took that as him saying he would shoot up their school, so they booked him for terroristic threatening… Wild

$2m bond for memeing too hard? Gtfo, I hope FIRE metaphorically beats all those yokels from cop to prosecutor to judge. No less than three public officials with not possibly more than 2 brain cells between them.

you see that glint in his eye? he knows the case has no merit and he’s going to sue the fucking shit out of everybody.
dude is playing that game, “would you x for a billion dollars?” and knows he’s going to win.

Yea, I bet this guy is going to win some serious Amendment V suits along with his guaranteed Amendment I suit.

Clearly suppression of free speech.

I got questions. What evidence was presented to the judge such that he set this insane bail? Who represented this guy? He had to have had a public defender at the least.
Either this is one of the worst miscarriages of justice in my 50-years or we’re going to hear more.

It will not stop with trump. This has been in the works for over 30 years now. Why do people think trump is the linchpin… Theyll just put some other tv fuckwit in the seat and carry on

Some of the memes he posted. The last one is what got him arrested and the the $2mil bond for “threatening a school shooting”.

So basically this arrest is bullshit fascist tactics. Got it.
Hey guys, can we crowd source this guys bail?
TheAsianDonKnots@lemmy.zip 2 days ago
That middle pic is in very poor taste and I audibly gasped a bit but well within his rights to post (not accounting for FB rules), but the last pic is in no way advocating that schools be shot up. What the heck, man? Half of all Facebook and Reddit users are going to jail next, and all of 4chan.
Cethin@lemmy.zip 20 hours ago
Oh, I didn’t even notice what the middle one is. Definitely bad taste and I’m certain it’s against FB policy. Showing that around to random people is pretty fucked up. Still, it isn’t illegal by any means.
