It's clearly a free speech issue?

Speech is also verbal. ‘Hate speech’ is protected speech regardless of its form.

I looked for her as well on PA’s license verification system and didn’t find anything. As a CPA, they’re giving us a bad name by just blindly reporting that she is as well without verifying.

For me, it was the part where she said all the racist stuff.

Nope. Lots of people go through cancer and take care of their parents. It doesn't turn you into a racist. It makes you irritable, sure, but it doesn't make you give a shit if a private company plays a Spanish TV station on their property. She was a racist bitch long before cancer and she can fuck all the way off.

Not all speech is protected. If she had written ot all down and posted it online, she wouldn't have been arrested.

Good. At this point it’s common practice for no one to resign. Our last president was under investigation his entire term. We currently have serval sitting congressman under investigation who still maintain committee seats. One dude has basically been found to have fabricated 70% of his life story. Until everyone resigns no one should.

Wizened GenXer here and let me tell you my generation sucks and is an embarrassment. But to the point of your first sentence here's an anecdotal story about that.
I'm ex-military, was a paratrooper and then was attached to JSOC, spent time running with 7th SFG way back when. To be clear, I wasn't SF, I just happened to do early generation field sat phones (yes, as fucking heavy as you are imagining) and they were like, ooh, we can do comm links from anywhere in the world. We're taking your guys until we get our own. Also, for the purposes of this story, I was in a fraternity in college.
Anyway, fast forward to me in circa 2015, 4 kids now, coach in lacrosse, soccer, community activist. Daughter is playing travel lacrosse. There's this one family, kind of anti-social keep to themselves type, well, the parents are, kids were nice. Anyway, they are pre-MAGA Tea Party nut jobs. And the dad latches on to me cause word spread of my military service and he was also in a fraternity. On paper I am a right wingers wet dream. Except I am a pretty easy going left leaning type, big Teddy Roosevelt fan, very anti-religion, a weird blend of Edmund Burke and Thomas Paine. Like I am a big fan of capitalism, with regulations, big fan of freedom, with responsibility, big fan of discrimination, but on people's character, not demographics, big fan of what we do for the least amongst us is more important than what we do for the most entitled and so on.
We're at a tournament one day and with travel teams you have multiple teams designated by age, so my daughter was I think 5th/6th grade at the time. And the start of these things can be clusterfucks. Like 15 fields, 40 or so teams, poor signage, especially if you're new to the whole thing. I see this family with their daughter and she's in our program but probably a 3rd grader. So the MAGAs have camped next to us and I don't care, I'll talk to anybody and we know enough to navigate the conversation towards kid's sports and a few other safe topics.
I see this other lost family so I walk over to see if I can help them and then we chat for a bit, they were at the completely wrong end of the tournament. I walk back and the dude says to me, 'You're so politically correct...' and I was like, 'What?' and then it dawned on me, the lost family was black. I just gave him a 'you're a dick look' and we picked our shit up and went over and hung out with the rest of the team families and had a grand ole time.
He was always complaining to me about how this country was heading in the wrong direction (remember this is like 2013-2014 and I remember asking how and he would say stuff like 'free speech man, you can't say anything in this country anymore without getting in trouble' and stuff like that. I realized what these fucks are angry about is that they can't make fun or belittle minorities, or gay people, or women, without suffering consequences for it and it really pisses them off.

I’ll be very happy when my town isn’t on the news anymore. But very glad this was the response.
Seeing them jam packed with people is the best.

100 percent she will have her head shaved for her next court appearance because of the “chemo.”

Everybody is posturing, ASS, the superintendent, and the ACLU.
The Super, who serves at the consent of an elected school board in a conservative area needs to appear to push back against "the devil"
The ACLU is asking the super to blink. "Do you really want to do this?"

I totally get that and normally I'd agree 💯. But what has holding Dems to a higher standard gotten us? Al Franken is a great example.

Spoiler: She doesn't. She is only saying that because she was video taped and charged.
