24. And the plaintiff in the case is a murderer
Wed Jun 30, 2021, 05:03 PM

Tell me about the people who died because of him.

The tweet is touting a pro se "class action" filed by a murderer back in February, which is already over the time limit for service or any other sign of moving forward under the federal rules.

The tweet is an irresponsible piece of clickbait based on a piece of months-old junk that is typical of pro se prison litigators, and is a disservice to people who take it at face value. It is irresponsible and abusive of the trust of the large number of followers that account has.

Anyway, I researched the tweets, found the original source materials, and provided them here so that anyone who found the tweet interesting would have access to the complete facts on which the tweets were based.

Along the way I found it disappointing that someone with that many Twitter followers would be so abusive of their trust and not provide complete factual information. That's offensive to me.

Is there a way to confirm? SheltieLover Jun 2021 #1

i'm thinking he was thinking herd immunity as an end result of letting/helping the virus wipe out certainot Jul 2021 #110
