The police state doesn't even need to worry about a Gestapo (secret police of the Nazis) or "unofficial" civilian collaborating spies (as in communist East Germany). It's all happening in plain sight now.
American citizens are at the mercy of the very people they elect to local, state or federal office as we see here. The interpretation of the meme by Sheriff Weems doesn't sound like a legally valid argument as we all know but the poor guy is still sitting in jail with an impossible bail. We are told to trust our police forces to protect us and then we read things like this.
$2,000,000 bail for echoing a FB meme? In what universe does this stand? Oh, right, it's Tennessee, of course. Yet another state that has lost its collective mind and gone all MAGA...smh.
You describe charlie kirk as an activist, but a more accurate description would be propagandist. I guess more neutral description would be both activist and propagandist. As a journalist, you know words are important. Do better. This is akin to saying, "he had sex with underage women". I'm pretty sure women would call that raping a teen. Right wing media doesn't put lipstick on a pig, why do you?

The French Revolution never sounded so appealing.
God help us all.
Oh yes, what type
person would possibly
post terrible memes on
social media? The
orange rind president
poop bombing the
people of this country?
All of his nasty
Truth/Lies Social posts
in the middle of the
night? Yes, please tell us
how this man in TN
compares to the
wannabe king in DC!

effing pig bastards. I've canceled my trip to the east coast this year so I don't have to drive through or fly over red states.
Wise and patriotic decision, mate!
