A retired Tennessee law enforcement officer was held in jail for more than a month this fall after police arrested him over a Facebook post of a meme related to the September assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk.
Prosecutors eventually dropped the criminal charge brought against Larry Bushart, but his stint behind bars came to exemplify the country’s tense political and legal climate following the tragedy, when conservatives sought to stymie public discourse about the late controversial figure that it saw as objectionable.
Now, Bushart is suing over his incarceration.
ACAB is saying that a system creates bad people; it takes what could have been good and morphs them due to corruption and inherent injustice.
No matter how good the dude, if they follow through on evil orders, they’ve committed an evil act. And you can’t tell me that this (otherwise good and moral dude) didn’t follow don’t evil orders at some point
I guarantee that as a cop, he committed some terrible shit acts that would make you sad. In the name of the law. And therefore, ACAB.
