The left proving once again that they can dish it out but they sure can’t take it
Thou shalt not speak truth to liberal power. He should avail himself of the maxine waters/randa jarrar defense.
He doesn’t seem like a leftist, judging by the myriad quotes provided in the article.
Oh, I see what you mean.
A Deputy DA who posts like this on social media. regardless of his political views, has no judgment at all.
Burnout
I thought that stuff was okay.
I am amazed at some of the stupid things attorneys do on their cell phones and on social media. Take a look at the heads of the FBI!
Stand on the Freedom of Speech platform like the Libs do!

I’d bet good money that you are right. Anyway, this guy is a prosecutor. He can destroy lives. So if he said what he is accused of saying, he needs to resign or be fired, pronto.
(And no it doesn’t matter if some liberal said the same kind of thing. Each case is separate.)
> You don’t give up free speech rights just because you are a lawyer for the state. <
No, but then again you must take the consequences. And the First amendment doesn’t apply here anyway. The 1A protects you from criminal prosecution. It doesn’t protect you from being fired.
For example, suppose I work at a Ford dealership. The 1A won’t protect me if I tell a customer that Toyota makes better cars. If management finds that out...I’m gone.
The someone tell me why Waters isn’t under investigation for telling people to confront and harass trump supporters. Does this c*** want a shooting war??? That’s what it sounds like.
Obama or Michelle? LOL!

> His judgement can necessarily be called into question... <
Permit me to make one more comment. What you said there is true. And it makes him toxic. Every time he gets involved in a case, the defense attorney will bring up what he said to show bias. And someone in a diverse jury will buy it.
I am not, in general, in favor of people losing their jobs based on something stupid they said. That’s actually a bit fascist. So if it had been a janitor or a night watchman or a receptionist, I’d say let it be.
But this DA guy has got to go.
