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.
That’s clearly the property that was being referred to, I’m sorry I didn’t specifically spell that out for you.
It was about states rights, they just framed it as interstate property rights because slaves were property. Again I apologize for not pandering to the dumbest among us but you’re making a good point that I shouldn’t discount just how dumb people can be.
do you support the “lost cause” of the confederacy?
Clearly not.

Nah, that’s how we get here in the first place.
do you think that “tHe CoNfEdErAcY sHoUlD’vE wOn ThE cIViL wAr”? if so, then let me say that i’m very glad the union won the civil war back in 1865. seriously!
You just asked me three times in a row of I support the Confederacy and got the answer no 3 times so you decided to go ahead and ask again?
How exactly do you think knowing history makes me a racist or Confederate sympathizer? Are you seriously so dense that you think that framing the cause of the civil war correctly is tacit support of the Confederacy?

For what? What a weird thing to do.

All these people that aren’t doing that currently? Uh huh, is your argument so poorly thought out you need some congregation of the ignorant to argue it for you?
I’m right, you’re wrong but more importantly you’re buying into American mythology because accepting the fact slavery was never outlawed in this country makes you feel weird.
