Former Vikings punter Chris Kluwe was arrested at a city council meeting after stating, “MAGA is explicitly a Nazi movement. You may have replaced a swastika with a red hat, but that is what it is,” before engaging in peaceful civil disobedience.

What he said is true! All facts to be seen and read downloaded in the news medias all across the nation. Why don’t they arrest the orange turd and his brainless friend instead? Hello the proud boys? The morality here is non existent!
If you live in Huntington Beach Ca you need to call these people they are in the wrong! Tell them to vote out racism fascism and immoral inhumane and loyalist to the dictator running the United States Government!
I don't know anything about her or any of them. My email reads:
I don’t know which of you requested or supported the arrest of Chris Kluwe, so to those of you who did: SHAME ON YOU!
You are unAmerican and should resign immediately....
Gracey Van Der Mark, a city council member and former Huntington Beach mayor, defended the "beautiful conservative city" and said Kluwe got his "five minutes of fame."
He is exactly right. MAGA only replaced the white pointy hat and robe with the red hat. We are quickly beginning to look like third Reich Germany. What was the arrest charge for?
I was so happy to see this. Cheers to Chris!! Absolutely appalling to put that plaque up. When I read about it two weeks ago I was disgusted. Huntington Beach is a red dot in a blue state. I believe the mayor is maga.
This is why he correctly and heroically spoke out … “Huntington Beach city commission approved the purchase and installation of a plaque at the library with stacked words: Magical, Alluring, Galvanizing, Adventurous — thus spelling MAGA, the polarizing slogan used by Trump and his supporters.”
He was at the Huntington Beach City Council meeting because HB is MAGA central in Calif. The city is overflowing with Nazis/white supremacists, and now they’re running the city. I’ve lived here for 10+ years. It’s gotten worse now that they’re emboldened by Shitler to crawl out of the darkness.
Not everyone can do this (and he acknowledges his privilege, though there’s also his size, lol), but this is a master class on how to protest at a city council meeting. Also, his verbal protest was extraordinarily well-worded, succinctly delivered, and evocative. Protest Heisman! 🏆
I don't understand what justification those cops had for arresting him other than that their feefees got hurt. I only saw him walking, and looking up details of the incident online gives me no details on what exactly he was arrested for, despite multiple camera angles.
From the video it looks like he planned to get arrested. He approached the dais after announcing that he “would now engage in the time-honored American tradition of civil disobedience” at the end of his speech and was rushed by cops.
Thanks to Chris Kluwe. He just set an example for allmofnus to follow. There are no jails big enough to house all of us we when we stand together as 1. I'm just waiting for dates and places.
Good man. Everyone should be doing this, every day, at every opportunity. High profile people need to do it. They must control the narrative and ram the message home
This guy is my new Hero!
Make posters, playing cards, bumper stickers, whatever, I’ll buy them, & I’d bet many others would too. The money can go towards anything that pushes back against this Fascist, Nazi Regime! ✊🏼
Oh, no, worry, didn't mean to imply you weren't! 😊Just was generally trying to encourage folks to follow him. He's got some great stuff up tight now about how it felt and what happened after he was arrested.
Where? When? What was the issue? Was he on the agenda? Who took the video? What happened after he was carried out of the meeting? This is clickbait if you don't attribute it or source it.

Oh, and:
Our country is being dismantled by a South African Nazi with Trump's blessing.
YES YES YES!!!

Not all heroes wear capes!

Stand up against Huntington Beach doing this shit.
Make posters, playing cards, bumper stickers, whatever, I’ll buy them, & I’d bet many others would too. The money can go towards anything that pushes back against this Fascist, Nazi Regime! ✊🏼
Lasst Euch das nicht gefallen. Grüße aus Austria, dem Land wo laut Trump die Bäume explodieren.

My kingdom for an edit feature!
One can't talk like a fascist, act like a fascist and not be found out.
Someone, others can look up to.
It's a slogan for hateful idiots.
