Internet "thought police" censorship comes to North Carolina and gets a pushback

We have read about the thought police in the UK under the current Labor government which led Elon Musk to post that they should "make Orwell fiction again". We have read about the German pensioner arrested for posting that their incompetent former Finance Minister was an "idiot". We have read about the French woman arrested for posting online that President Macron is a "piece of filth". We have read about the Finnish former cabinet minister arrested for posting a Bible verse online.

Who would have thought that something like that would ever happen in North Carolina? But it already has.

When Sloan Rachmuth, a Jewish woman who is a freelance journalist and conservative education activist, observed an employee of Harris-Teeter where she was shopping wearing "Free Palestine" garb, she complained in person to the store manager and posted about it online on X. The next thing she knew, she had three Holly Springs police officers on her doorstep arresting her for "cyberstalking" and carrying her off to jail on a $1,000 bond. Shortly after she was bonded out, she got a call from Wake County's Democrat District Attorney telling her that never should have happened and dismissing the charges. But the damage to her was done with the liberal media widely reporting the arrest.

Now, Rachmuth has struck back, filing a civil lawsuit for damages against the Holly Springs police department. Hopefully, the full story behind this travesty will come out and everyone involved punished severely enough to discourage any such future attacks on free speech.

Normally employers do not allow employees to wear politically oriented clothing or paraphenalia, especially if they serve the public. Harris-Teeter seems to have allowed this pro-terrorist clothing that was highly offensive to their Jewish customers. Did they also sic the police on this woman? If so, they should be sued to.
