A Kentucky school board chairman has resigned after social media posts were uncovered in which he allegedly called for people to “shoot Republicans.”
Jeffrey Miller had been the chairman of Erlanger-Elsmere Independent School District since 2016, and the post in question was made in 2018.
The post was a reaction to a mass shooting in Jacksonville. Miller wrote, “i’d be ok with the NRA if these psychos were just once the victims of a mass shooting. WINK WINK: please shoot republicans.”
Kentucky Republican State Representative Steven Doan told Fox News that he was receiving complaints about Miller after the post was unearthed and circulated throughout the community.
“This began with a request that the school reopen a track at the High School,” Doan said. “I made a post about it on my Facebook page to see where the community stood. This is when I began receiving social media messages from community members. They said that they wanted to publicly support me and my position, but they feared retaliation.”
Doan then received a text message about Miller from a constituent who feared retaliation. The message read, “I cannot make it to the meeting tonight and I fear for my son’s graduation if I post something public. I hope you know the kind of men Chad Molley and Jeffery Miller are for this meeting. The superintendent is allowing a board member to stay on the board after threatening mass shootings against Republicans by the NRA.”
The message continued, “Yes, he apologized but as a hush-hush, so kids could play football in 2020. It was a concession. Yes, it is old news, but as a public figure, he is, well should be, held to a higher standard, especially to affect children. I spoke with a member of the board already and was informed he has to not be elected again. I do not think enough people know what he did in 2020.”
In June, Doan called for Miller’s resignation. After he did so, he was informed of other posts by Miller, including ones that said “f-ck the police” and expressed other far-left extremist views.
On Thursday, Miller stepped down.
