A Kentucky school board chairman was forced to resign after a cruel post he allegedly made begging people to 'shoot Republicans' resurfaced.
Jeffrey Miller, the former leader of Erlanger-Elsmere Independent School District was officially stripped of his title Thursday during a board meeting, Republican State Representative Steven Doan confirmed.
It came after the post and another one which disparaged the police came to light.
Miller, who served as the chairman since 2016 and did not attend the meeting, was investigated after a Facebook comment he allegedly made in 2018 came to light.
The post, which has since been taken down, involved Miller's alleged response to a mass shooting that left two people dead and 10 injured after David Katz, 24, opened fire at a video game tournament in Jacksonville, Florida.
'I'd be ok with the NRA if these psychos were just once the victims of a mass shooting,' an account which appeared to belong to Miller wrote. 'WINK WINK: please shoot republicans.'
Doan, who was elected in 2022, received complaints about the comment from his constituents this spring - leading him to look into the issue.
'Initially, I struggled to grasp the gravity of their fears, but I listened closely and uncovered a shocking reality: allegations of corruption, incitements to violence, criminal conduct, and pervasive hostility,' he said after Miller's alleged comments were brought to his attention.
'These have no place in our schools or community. Political violence and criminal behavior are unacceptable, and we must model better conduct for our children.'
Miller's alleged post also sparked a direct text message conversation between Doan and a community member, who made it clear he feared for his son's graduation if he spoke out about the issue.

They have ALWAYS been like this, and it was bound to surface sooner or later. In a way, this is a good thing. Lines are being drawn, and at least everyone knows where people stand. I want to know who the crazies are. Trump broke them, and again, sooner is better than later, per se.
They need to check out that guy’s crawlspace, too. I wouldn’t trust that guy just lookin’ at him.
Seventeen “alleges” or equivalent in the article.
Such awful writing.
