    Choose your words very carefully when questioning the cult in places where they have power. Definitely do not question taxpayer money spent on displaying political messages.

    Former Viking Chris Kluwe calls MAGA a "Nazi movement" before being arrested at city council meeting - CBS Minnesota

    Police arrested former Vikings punter Chris Kluwe on Tuesday after he spoke out against a southern California city's decision to display a plaque that spells out "MAGA" — an acronym synonymous with President Trump.

    Kluwe had been protesting the city's decision to display a plaque that features the words "Magical," "Alluring," "Galvanizing" and "Adventurous."

    He’s an hysterical nutcase but this another occasion for me to interject: LOL at people who believe there are two parties.

    Good for him! A true patriot fighting against fascism and an example for all to follow. He even got an ovation from the audience. The Fascists may call him an hysterical nutcase, but no doubt those are the same people who approved of insurrectionists smearing feces on the walls of the Capitol building.

    He wanted to be arrested so I don’t think this is a case of being arrested for offending MAGA sensibilities.

    So, arrested for his words or his behavior? Disrupting government meetings is ok now, right? ( see j 6).

    I totally forgot about this guy. I guess he is still doing his thing.

    Sounds about right, clearly a bunch of idiots running the city as a culture war battle ground

    Were they worried about "voter fraud" in their super rich Republican enclave or were they just virtue signaling?

    "Former Vikings punter Chris Kluwe was arrested for civil disobedience".

    Odd how'd you lie about this fact?!?

    Nah, it's what left wing hate mongers do. Just you being you.
