6th Cir. grants #QualifiedImmunity to police who arrested a man for running a parody Facebook page making fun of them. Court declined to decide whether the #FirstAmendment covered the page (ed. it does), merely concluding it was not "clearly established."opn.ca6.uscourts.gov/opinions.pdf/2… 
The Court also ends on a quote from @bariweiss. (See above.)
CODA: In Parma, Ohio, police only clear (meaning arrest someone for) 44% of *violent* crimes. Yet, they used a detective and multiple officers to hunt down and figure out how to arrest someone who hurt their feelings.
