Larry Bushart, 61, from Lexington, Tennessee – about 110 miles from Nashville – was booked into jail on September 21 for posting a meme quoting President Donald Trump when he responded to a 2024 school shooting in Perry, Iowa, saying, “We have to get over it.”
Bushart was then arrested and charged with making threats of mass violence on school property and activities.
The dropping of the charges came after NewsChannel 5 aired an interview on Wednesday with Weems in which he admitted that investigators knew the meme was not about a school shooting, but authorities were responding to community anxiety.
Qualified immunity and the corporate veil shouldn’t exist at all. If they can’t afford liability insurance, then they shouldn’t do it.
This right here. Shitty cop’s insurance goes up until they can’t afford to be a police officer anymore. Problem solved without having to reform every police department.
Since they don’t seem to care hit them where it hurts.
