No, Bernie Sanders was arrested for violently rioting. At least according to the newspapers Bernie Sanders reads these days.

You know what you could also try? Literally read the images Hasan posted.

If you're not interested in civil discourse, then we can end this discussion now.

I researched his arrest to learn what wasn't said in the images. Are you suggesting that resisting arrest is equivalent to violent rioting?
