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.

    Well anyway, we’ve already established previously that you tacitly admitted to being a disingenuous troll,

    And when did we do that exactly?

    It’s not rewriting anything.

    Let’s go fact by fact.

    Did the with use a framework of states rights to attempt to legalize seceding? Yes or no. No bullshit editorializing, yes or fucking no.

      Point to where I said or implied slavery was not the primary cause of the civil war. I won’t hold my breath because that isn’t something I’ve said nor would said

      You fucking tell me.

        See. When pushed into a yes or no you simply refuse to answer.

        Yes or no genius. Should be easy to answer.

          I’ll answer with a yes/no if you answer another question for me strictly in a yes or no fashion first. Deal?

              Does your mom know that you are spreading racist slaver-apologist revisions of history from your room in her basement?

              Yes or no please.

                So you ask a question that implies I’m a racist one way or the other. You’re a shitheel. I gave you a yes or no question you simply choose not to answer because doing so proves your endeavor worthless and misguided.

                  Blah blah blah, TL;DR

                  Yes or no. Your answer shouldn’t be more than 3 letters… Or are you backing out?

                    I’m not going to say I’m a racist because I’m not. You however proved yourself a coward so there’s that.
