MEADVILLE, Pa. (AP) – A western Pennsylvania school board member is defending social media posts critical of President Donald Trump with hashtags saying people could “Make America Great Again” with a “clean head shot.”

Crawford Central School Board member Glenn Tuttle tells The Meadville Tribune he stands by the posts, after a citizen complained about them at a board meeting Monday.

Tuttle ran as a Republican to fill a vacant seat in 2013 and again as a Republican in 2015, though the newspaper says he’s identified himself as libertarian in recent months.

Glenn looks like an AIDS sufferer...

He looks like he died from AIDS 5 years ago. People who love and worship government violence advocating violence, no shock here.

“I can’t wait to see the stats as his welfare leeches finally die. Best thing ever. #notmypresident #MAGA with a clean head shot.”

“Hopefully they find that special one who can do it right and #MAGA with a clean shot.”

Its protected speech. It doesn't pass any element of the incitement test.

No specific time.
No specific place.
Not directed to a specific individual actor.


Learned Hand (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Learned_Hand) wrote the opinion:
“To assimilate agitation, legitimate as such, with direct incitement to violent resistance, is to disregard the tolerance of all methods of political agitation which in normal times is a safeguard of free government.”


Incitement would be:

John you should go shoot Paul tomorrow, at his home.

Actor, Time, Place

Sounds to me like he's talking about some Second Amendment remedies.
