They’re trying to tell us and make us believe that if you send out any tweet, post, message or make other use of social media that is either unnecessary, unkind or untrue may be illegal. It’s not the law. That tweet was neither necessary, true or kind so by their very own standard the O.P.P. tweet does not pass the T.H.I.N.K. test and may therefore be illegal. Somebody should get arrested.
