And now the political persecutions begin for not conforming with leftist political correctness. If they succeed in violating a judge's first amendment rights...they can violate all of us.

Georgia judge suspended for comparing removal of Confederate monuments to ISIS actions
A judge in Gwinnett County, Georgia has been suspended for comparing those taking down Confederate monuments to the terrorist group Islamic State. There has been a nationwide push across the US to remove Confederate symbols from public squares.
“The nut cases tearing down monuments are equivalent to ISIS destroying history,” Judge Jim Hinkle wrote on Facebook Tuesday, the same day protesters in Durham, North Carolina toppled a statue honoring Confederate soldiers.
“I have suspended Judge Hinkle effective immediately while I consider the appropriate final action,” Gwinnett County Chief Magistrate Judge Kristina Hammer Blum told The Atlanta Journal-Constitution (AJC) Tuesday.
Hinkle told the AJC he didn’t “see anything controversial” about the posts.
“But you know, with the way things are going in the world today, I guess everything’s controversial,” he told the outlet.
