Police arrested a man for making fun of police, SCOTUS approves.

Where's the "free speech" brigade when the state is actually censoring speech? https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/supreme-court/supreme-court-rejects-ohio-mans-bid-sue-police-arrest-facebook-parody-rcna70435 #FreeSpeech #SCOTUS

@parkermolloy This is what I hate about the current system. Officers can intimidate you and arrest you and there is no real recourse. Even if you get off, you have been punished by the process. It will likely cost you money to be found innocent, assuming the system doesn't just play along with the officer, and in this case it did. Add in the arrest process itself and the embarrassment in local papers showing your mugshot before trial. I've seen them harass and I've experienced their overreach..
