From the article: "The Office of Disciplinary Counsel had received complaints from 46 different people about Traywick’s Facebook posts,..."

So can 46 of us complain about some dirtbag rat attorney and get them suspended just as easily? /rhetorical

I don’t doubt it for a minute. And this happened in a ruby red state! Un-freaking-believable.

Mr Traywick obviously never heard or took to heart this famous saying:

“Some people” don’t like your opinion on something...so you must be punished - to the extent that you may be ruined.

Can you BELIEVE this?

"Absolutely unbelievable. He expressed a POLITICAL opinion on social media and now he's forbidden from earning a living and must take 'anger management' and 'diversity' classes. in SOUTH CAROLINA. Put a fork in the USC. It's a dead letter."

Did you actually read Opinion No. 28037, RE: In the matter of David Paul Traywick, Respondent?

Traywick waived his 1A challenge:

"Nevertheless, we focus our analysis on only two of them. We do this mindful of Respondent's right to freedom of speech under the First Amendment to the United States Constitution. Importantly, however, Respondent does not raise a First Amendment challenge to discipline. His attorney wrote the Court after oral argument stating, "We do not think it is necessary for the Court to address First Amendment issues." For this reason, we will not analyze the impact of the First Amendment."

George Floyd WORTH MORE DEAD THAN ALIVE!
This would be a good title for this. And right now a judge is passing sentence on Chauvin....and to avoid a black riot you know it will be a severe sentence.

REHAB THAT WORKS!

After 6 burglaries,
3 car thefts,
multiple illegal trespasses,
ongoing cocaine and alcohol addiction,
committing 2 violent home invasions,
3 armed robberies,
dealing Fentanyl and Meth,
passing counterfeit money,
beating 4 victims senseless
and being arrested 23 times since 1998,
George Floyd hasn’t committed a crime in over one year !

BUT HE DID NET HIS FAMILY $27 MILLION FROM THE STATE AND $20 MILLION FROM A GO FUND ME ACCOUNT

AND He’s been recognized by the Speaker of the House of Representatives of the United States of America, as one of the bravest people who gave his life for the cause of Racial Injustice in our country.

WE ARE ONE SICK COUNTRY!! And this is putting it mildly

Do you think that the family would return all that money if they could have their beloved George back ????

..in SOUTH CAROLINA. Put a fork in the USC. It’s a dead letter.


South Carolina will be a solid blue state within a couple decades due to proximity to GA and blue state transplants. Maybe less. Atlanta will swamp the south like CA did to the west.

"His lawyer was stupid."

Despite apparently hiring a pair of attorneys, there is no lawyer who does not direct his own counsel in matters determining his ongoing livelihood.

He had every chance to exercise his 1A Constitutional Right, and put the South Carolina Supreme Court on the defensive, and he. did. not. Period.

It would appear instead that the counselor chose brevity & compliance -- rather than a robust Constitutional defense of 1A -- said compliance reflected in the last sentence of the Court's Opinion:

"Pursuant to Rules 2(o) and 17(b), RLDE, Rule 413, SCACR, interim suspension is automatically lifted upon this "final determination" of disciplinary proceedings."

Yes, lieberals (not a typo), let’s normalize depriving political opponents of their earned and paid for professional licenses.

One set of rules, for all!

have we entered the criminalize phase? demonize, ostracize, criminalize no dissent, resistance is futile

Language control is about thought control. Now it appears language control will be used for physical & behavioral control...and after that comes the reeducation camps to correct all forms of "wrong-think."

Maybe he intended that from the start?

Was it his intention then to fail?

No - that’s an absolute violation of his first amendment rights.

I’ll have to buy more body bags and another excavator if that’s the case.
