'MAGA is profoundly corrupt, unmistakably anti-democracy and most importantly, MAGA is explicitly a Nazi movement,' Kluwe, a former punter for the Minnesota Vikings, said.
This is actually how it’s supposed to play out. I can’t speak for how MAGA folks felt, but getting arrested is part of the civil disobedience. You make your protest in a way that peacefully violates the law and the arrest draws attention to what you’re saying and conviction behind it. The cops do their job. Sure they might have just ejected him from the building, but they only detained him for a few hours and there’s no evidence of police brutality.
Unpopular opinion comin in hot. I agree that it played out as it should have and that cops (the ones without a chip on their shoulders) are vital to it all. When it goes “as planned”, cops are there as much to arrest unlawful violators as they are there to protect lawful actions as well, such as peaceful protests (though this particular case was unlawfully disruptive). I love the message and the style of it all though and I think to get arrested in this manner is something I would brag about lol.
