Sourced from the Washington Times. All kinds of credibility there.

Here's some reality for you. This former policeman's death is on the anti-vaxers like Fox news hosts who turned him into a freedumb loving hero quitting his job rather than get vaxed. Lawrence O'Donnell just did a segment on it and spoke about a GoFundMe set up for his family and funeral expenses. The amount raised went from about $7000 to about $17000 less than half an hour later. Node probably didn't hear about this because apparently Fox, who gave him lots of publicity when he refused to get vaxed, didn't bother to report on his death.

Washington State Patrol Trooper Who Left Over Vaccination Requirement Dead
Jason Taylor January 30, 2022

A Washington State trooper who left the force after declining to get the COVID-19 vaccine is dead.

The state patrol released a statement noting the death of retired trooper Robert LeMay Friday.

LeMay gained national attention in October when he signed off for the last time as an officer by telling told Washington Gov. Jay Inslee he “can kiss my a–”. The video of LeMay’s signoff went viral.

An order from Gov. Inslee requires most state workers to be vaccinated from COVID-19.

LeMay became a State Trooper in 1999 and was stationed in Yakima when he left the patrol. He was 50 years old at the time of his death.

Washington State Patrol Chief John R. Batiste released a statement on Lemay’s death Friday.

“I am deeply saddened over the news that our former friend and colleague Trooper Robert LaMay has passed away. This agency’s prayers and remembrances are with his family and loved ones. Rob served honorably for over two decades and we were disappointed to see him leave the agency this past October. His service to this state and agency will be long remembered and appreciated.”
