Capitol police arrest pastor during prayer protest
Rev. William Barber was praying against severe budget cuts feared to jeopardize programs including Medicaid and Social Security.
Most Christian president, ever.
Trump'll pardon them, right?
Right?
I feel additional context is needed, especially with the pic used. The arrest was no outside as pictured, but inside the capitol rotunda itself.
The Capitol Police told Newsweek: "They were arrested for demonstrating inside the Congressional Buildings, which is not allowed in any form, to include but not limited to sitting, kneeling, group praying, singing, chanting, etc.
"In this case they started praying quietly and then began to pray out loud. That is when we gave them multiple warnings to stop or they would be arrested. Three people didn't stop.
"The charge is 22-1307 Crowding, Obstructing, and Incommoding. There are other spots on Capitol grounds where this type of demonstrating is allowed."
The same guys who let J6 clowns roll right in?
