In a stunning smackdown to overreaching law enforcement, Waylon Bailey from Louisiana showed us all how it’s done by winning his lawsuit after the Rapides Parish Sheriff’s Office thought they could just waltz into his life over a Facebook joke about zombies and COVID-19. Let’s be clear: Bailey’s post was obviously a joke, yet the sheriff’s department, acting like the thought police, arrested him, claiming he violated some anti-terrorism law. What a load of nonsense! This is America, folks, where we’re supposed to have something called free speech, remember?
Thankfully, the jury saw right through this and awarded Bailey a whopping $205,000, sending a loud and clear message to any law enforcement thinking they can trample on our First Amendment rights: Not on our watch. It’s alarming that officers showed up guns blazing over a harmless joke. It’s like they’ve got nothing better to do than chase down folks on Facebook making light of a pandemic that had us all a bit stir-crazy.
Bailey’s win isn’t just a win for him; it’s a win for all of us who cherish our freedom to speak our minds, even if it’s to crack jokes about zombies during a pandemic. It’s a reminder that the Constitution isn’t just fancy writing on a piece of paper; it’s the law of the land that even the police must respect. And for those officers who think they can ignore it, well, this case shows they better think again.
This ordeal should be a wake-up call, especially for law enforcement. The First Amendment protects us all, and when the government tries to stomp on those rights, they better be ready for a fight. Waylon Bailey stood his ground, and because of that, our rights are a little safer today. It’s about time we remind those in power that they work for us, and trying to silence us with scare tactics won’t stand. Let’s keep standing up for what’s right and never let the government forget who’s really in charge.
I believe that Obama is in charge of America he rules over Biden he runs this country.
Yes, but Obama is also taking orders from the Big Boys at the top of the power tier: The Illuminati, and the WEF.
There is definitely a Civil War coming. This crap is getting out of hand, and the democrats are the ones causing this. They have always hated the citizens, military, and businesses in America. Yet they made millions off the backs of the people who are dumb enough to keep voting for them.
The government WANTS a civil war, and has been goading us into one since Obama was the VISIBLE president. The government knows that a revolution would harm them, but a civil war would harm us, because we would kill each other. In other words, it would play a big part in their population thinning agenda.
Govt used citizen’s tax dollars to pay someone they abused. Not exactly a “win”. Make the depity & their sheriff pay out of their personal pockets and endure 10 days in jail, even if the amount was lowered to $10,000. This is the only thing that will provide a deterrent for future abuse.
What surprises me the most is that I’ve always considered Louisiana to be a bastion of freedom. I was mistaken.
