“Touch My Dick” as told by First Amendment Protection Agency John Francis Medaglia, III in Dismissal of Lawsuit

Some may remember when John Medaglia, III (First Amendment Protection Agency; FAPA) was detained/arrested several times, by the same LEO on the same day. Link to arrest is provided.

Well, he sued and to nobody’s surprise he lost. Below are select details from Medaglia v. Middleton, Civil Action 1:24-cv-532-MGL (D.S.C. Oct. 23, 2024)

-Funny quotes in the official court record:

“Touch my dick” (details below) “You have just earned the State of South Carolina a humungous lawsuit.” “My daddy is going to love to hear this” “It’s not going to be good for you,” “Say goodbye to your qualified immunity” “You are in so much trouble and I love it.”

-The court pointed out FAPA’s amended complaint was unverified

-The court pointed out that although FAPA claimed, without supporting evidence, he “fear[ed for his] safety in an unsupervised office with [Middleton],” the allegation does not appear consistent with the recorded evidence.

-The city submitted BWC (body’s worn camera) footage of what occurred after FAPA ended the video. What FAPA didn’t publish, but is on body camera and in the official court record: “Plaintiff refuses to get in the car, telling Middleton repeatedly to use force in addition to other provocative statements, for example “touch my dick,” over the course of the next several minutes.”

1A Claim:

-This was not a Forum Analysis case

-FAPA amended his complaint to include the City of New Ellenton; FAPA alleged the city was responsible for the defendant’s alleged misconduct.

-Citing Monell v. Department of Social Services, 436 U.S. 658, 694 (1978), the court held supervisory liability is generally inapplicable to § 1983 suits, such that an employer or supervisor is not liable for the acts of his employees, absent an official policy or custom that results in an illegal action.

-The court pointed out FAPA’s did not provide any evidence that supports his allegation the city had a policy or custom (typical “auditor,” they love making allegations with zero evidence).

-In dismissing FAPA’s 1A claim, the court noted that even if the City had a policy that restricts filming inside the government building, it would not be in violation of the 1A.

-The court noted that “the First Amendment does not guarantee the right to communicate one’s views at all times and places or in any manner that may be desired” (Heffron v. Int’l. Soc. For Krishna Consciousness, Inc., 452 U.S. 640, 647 (1981).

-Additionally, the court held that “neither this court, nor the Supreme Court, nor any other circuit has recognized an unlimited First Amendment right to film police free of otherwise reasonable limitations. In fact, the circuits that recognized a right to film explicitly noted that it may be subject to reasonable time, place, and manner restrictions” (Hulbert v. Pope, 70 F.4th 726, 736 (4th Cir. 2023)
