Making t-shirts of your own wanted poster is trolling? It's definitely mocking them, but trolling is much more than that.
Not in 2023. In 2023 trolling is as simple as having another point of view.
I just think trolling requires some form of incitement leading to action by the victim. You post something inflammatory online, and get other people angrily posting back.
Making the t-shirt doesn't troll them, it doesn't get them to do anything. It's just a response to them, they publicly said he's a wanted alleged criminal and he publicly stuck his tongue out back at them. Now, if he made these t-shirts and then law enforcement tried to find him through his t-shirt supply chain, only to find that the t-shirts had been printed by the detective's mum's Etsy company, then that would be trolling.
