Vermont Settles In Lawsuit With Man Arrested For Giving An Officer The Middle Finger
The state of Vermont agreed to pay $175,000 in damages to a man who was pulled over for giving an officer the middle finger in 2018 and arrested for disorderly conduct, with the ACLU saying that “Police need to respect everyone’s First Amendment rights—even for things they consider offensive or insulting.” What do you think?
