Huntsville City Schools spokesperson Keith Ward tells WHNT-TV that Sealy taught at Huntsvilleā€™s Grissom High School for a brief time in 2016 but hasnā€™t worked for the school system in the past couple of years.

I realize that ā€œa coupleā€ can be a reference to the number 2, but a school years runs from Aug-May. So how many weeks did he teach before he was booted?

Yeah the protesters needed to worry but the cop didnā€™t need to worry about his life, he didnā€™t care about the protesters, and he didnā€™t need to teach the white guy a lesson of who was in charge.

Article carefully avoids saying whether he was one of the demonstrators or had come out to confront them, and thatā€™s on purpose. Methbilly Nation is now busy filling Faux News KKKomment boards with ā€œanother violent liberalā€¦ā€

I sincerely hope someone goes ā€œwomp wompā€ all over his ass while heā€™s in jail. But heā€™s white so probably not.

True that. If he had been a person of color (even with a concealed carry license) they would have executed him on the spot.

ā€œThe gun slipped out of the holster when he had fallen, and I think he may have tried to retrieve it,ā€ Smith said. ā€œThen they said ā€˜gun.ā€™ā€
Thatā€™s when police fired, she said.
ā€œThere was absolutely no hesitation at all,ā€ she said. ā€œ[The officer] went straight for his gun.ā€

Another MAGAnaut for Space Force!

Now THAT is how you tell the story of what happened as any real journalist should.

Of course, it also helps highlight that APā€™s whitewashed blurb nonsense does more harm than good.

My favorite part:

ā€œWhere are your ancestors from?ā€ someone asked the man.

ā€œAlabama!ā€ he answered."

whomp, whomp indeedā€¦

And this one. Protesters didnā€™t all just drop to the ground in fear. Sealy was confronted.

Has the Alabama GOP responded yet? You know, by drafting a bill to make brandishing weapons legal?
