      Department response on 3️⃣1️⃣1️⃣ above out of San Diego I love "we always announce we'll use lethal force, but to *de-escalate* we sent a SWAT team"https://twitter.com/maxrivlinnadler/status/1269023335402270720 …

      Max RN @MaxRivlinNadler
      Asked about an officer telling protestors "If you follow us, you will get shot, do you understand me?" SDPD says, "Police officers are trained to announce the use of force whenever possible." Said SWAT team also arrived at the scene and "prepared to de-escalate the situation."

      We've talked about Brandenburg many times, including in the thread below It's been the constitutional standard on incitement for 50+ years An unsympathetic defendant, like the guy in the above tweet, would typically be used to chip away at precedenthttps://twitter.com/greg_doucette/status/1041461432506900482 …

      T. Greg Doucette added,

      T. Greg DoucetteVerified account @greg_doucette
      Remember: Brandenburg v Ohio, 395 US 444 (1969), lays out when someone can be criminally prosecuted or civilly sued for incitement The speech at issue must: 1️⃣ be *intended* to produce 2️⃣ and *likely* to produce 3️⃣ *imminent* lawless action https://www.oyez.org/cases/1968/492

      T. Greg Doucette Retweeted Monica Miller

      Well of course you don't; I don't either. That's where the doctrine "bad cases make bad law" comes from But it's practically impossible to satisfy "imminence" via social media posts. It seems like the US DOJ is running this case to chip away at thathttps://twitter.com/monicamiller202/status/1269066599941632006 …

      Replying to @greg_doucette
      I don't have much sympathy for this defendant, and, if he was inciting imminent unlawful action, Brandenburg likely does not protect hiim. ]
