Texas Police Chief Melts Down on Twitter, Threatens to Sue NRAtv for Free Speech

As the gun debate ensues after the school shooting in Santa Fe, Texas, Houston Police Chief Hubert “Art” Acevedo threatened to sue pro-gun media outlet NRAtv for “harassment” and “cyber bullying” after the channel criticized him during one of their televised broadcasts.

The chief Tweeted the lawsuit would be free for him, because “several top-notch [law] firms” would represent him pro bono.

Since the shooting Acevedo has used the media to express his pro gun control views in various media interviews.

Many of his critics have fired back, accusing the chief of being anti-Second Amendment and soft on immigration enforcement.

In a broadcast Tweeted on NRAtv’s Twitter page, broadcaster Dana Loesch criticized the chief for championing so-called sanctuary city laws and for his pro-gun political views on the Second Amendment, pointing out the chief is actually a politically appointed official and not a representative elected by the people.

“So Chief ~~@~~ArtAcevedo, you support sanctuary city laws. You support lawlessness and law-breaking. You don’t get to cherry-pick what laws that you support … And you don’t get to lecture law-abiding Americans on what you think we should be able to do with our ~~#~~2A.” – ~~@~~DLoesch

That broadcast and Tweet was in response to a previous Tweet exchange with Acevedo accusing the channel of “losing their moral high ground on what was once their core values.”

The chief Tweets an epic reply dated May 22, threatening to sue the channel for what is obviously First Amendment protected activity, i.e., broadcasting [politically opinionated] news.

“Like I was saying, blah, blah, blah,” the chief wrote in a responding Tweet threatening to sue them over “harassment” by “minions,” promising “many top-notch firms would do so pro-bono.”

Earlier in the day, before his meltdown, Rachel, a producer for Dana Loesch reached out to the chief for an interview via email, saying she would love to have a debate with the chief about his views at 5:30 p.m.

Chief Acevedo ducked the interview, and an opportunity to clear up any mis-characterizations about his views.

His excuse: he didn’t believe an interview, with himself at least, would further the discussion on gun safety and gun rights.

If history is any indication, he could be right.

It might even escalate.

Support our Mission

Help us build a database of bad cops

For almost 15 years, PINAC News has remained active despite continuous efforts by the government and Big Tech to shut us down by either arresting us for lawful activity or by restricting access to our readers under the pretense that we write about “social issues.”

Since we are forbidden from discussing social issues on social media, we have created forums on our site to allow us to fulfill our mission with as little restriction as possible. We welcome our readers to join our forums and support our mission by either donating, volunteering or both.

Our plan is to build a national database of bad cops obtained from public records maintained by local prosecutors. The goal is to teach our readers how to obtain these lists to ensure we cover every city, county and state in the country.

After all, the government has made it clear it will not police the police so the role falls upon us.

It will be our most ambitious project yet but it can only be done with your help.

But if we succeed, we will be able to keep innocent people out of prison.
