    Wayne County Prosecutor’s Office spokeswoman Maria Miller said in a statement that Teana Walsh resigned Friday and Prosecutor Kym Worthy accepted it. The statement says the post was “out of character” and “does not reflect the person that we know.”

    Walsh’s now-deleted post on her personal Facebook page said the “solution” for “large swarms of people throwing bricks at police” is “Shoot em. Period.”

    The Associated Press couldn’t find a working number for Walsh so she could comment on the post or her resignation.

    This shows how crazily PC things have become. She was 100% right. Prosecutor Kym Worthy should have refused to accept her resignation and backed her.

    She was 100% correct.
    She should not have resigned.
    Her resignation should’ve been rejected.
    She should run for a higher public office.

    Its amazing to me that after what we saw with absolutely heartless prosecutors with Rubashkin, the frum world doesn’t wake up and realize the the US has the harshest justice system in the world. It has the highest incarceration rate in the world. One QUARTER of all prisoners in the world are in US prisons. (thats one out of every 4 prisoners in the world).

    Police brutality is a FACT. Prosecution mercilessness is undeniable. When will the frum world wake up? Why are you guys defending a prosecutor who advocates shooting people who protest disgusting police brutality? Do you take pride in living in the most locked up nation in the world?
