NEW ORLEANS (AP) — A Super Bowl halftime show performer was charged Thursday with two misdemeanors, about 4 1/2 months after he ran across the field at the Superdome waving a flag that included the words “Sudan and Free Gaza,” Louisiana State Police said.
Zul-Qarnain Kwame Nantambu, 41, turned himself in to authorities to face of charges resisting a police officer and disturbing the peace by interrupting a lawful assembly, police said. He surrendered in coordination with his attorney and was booked into the Orleans Parish Justice Center.
Nantambu revealed the flag and ran on the field during rapper Kendrick Lamar’s halftime performance on Feb. 9. He was detained on the field after his demonstration but not charged. The NFL said at the time he would be banned for life from league stadiums and events.
According to a statement from police, Nantambu had been hired as an extra performer and “had permission to be on the field during the performance, but did not have permission to demonstrate as he did.”
NFL spokesman Brian McCarthy thanked investigators for their work.
“We take any attempt to disrupt any part of an NFL game, including the halftime show, very seriously and are pleased this individual will be held accountable to the fullest extent of the law,” McCarthy said in a statement.
Nope I organize my community I talk to random-ass people every goddamn day while you very obviously do not with these Reddit-brain nationalist shut-in replies.
And they accomplished nothing and the libs went back to brunch. Liberal protests are just cop-sanctioned parades, they have no impact whatsoever except to make the politically illiterate fool themselves into accepting the status quo because they now think it is something they are sufficiently working against (by doing nothing with any other effect!).
By in the streets, I mean actually making shit happen by mobilizing and making material demands with material threats that are acted on if the demands are not met. Actually not putting up with the status quo by force.
Americans sure as hell aren't doing that over Trump. No Kings achieves the opposite, which is complacency.
