Was not tackled. Resisted law enforcement doing their duty, senators are not exempt from the consequences of their actions. Looked on video more like he did it intentionally, presumably to use it as he did almost immediately for political gain by lying about how he was treated. The video shows they were handling him as carefully as possible given his level of resistance. He's a senior senator .. he knows secret service security protocols. He got what he deseved.

Don't believe me he wasn't tackled? Challenge him to stand there and let me tackle his @$$. You can even film it .. that way all can see what that would actually f'ing look like.

I personally don’t like how Noem handled that press conference and it was totally under her control on how the Senator from the state she was at was mistreated/ She had just slammed the Mayor and Governor of California and made inappropriate comments on them. I heard she was sent to a hospital a few days later and even though I don’t believe in Karma thought, “this doesn’t surprise me.”

Is it ever possible for you liberals to provide a complete and factual account of an incident?

1. He did not wear his Senate security pin, which would have signaled to security who he was.
2. He did not identify himself until after menacingly lunging towards the DHS secretary during a news conference, talking gibberish.
3. He resisted federal officers until several subdued him to place him in handcuffs.
4. This was a publicity stunt that the Senator and the libs planned, because a presser was waiting for him downstairs after he was
released and thrown out of the building. Libs in Washington were also ready to start in with their propaganda.
5. The DHS secretary would have happily taken a meeting with the corrupt Senator, but then that would not have gotten him any
publicity.
6. He cried on the Senate floor about his ordeal for the cameras, forgetting, I guess, there was footage of his stunt available.

He was there to be disruptive. He rushed the stage. So YES he should be arrested.

Wasn't necessary.

Just the fact that they waited until after he was removed from the room to tackle him, shows it wasn't necessary.

This is a police abuse case simply because it was done afterwards.

Has nothing to do with his position really. They just didn't want to make a scene over it. It just happens that it was recorded.

This is why they don't want recordings of such situations.

If this not prosecuted this administration will have the right to confiscate such recordings.

Depends if he is being disruptive, which he was

If you showed up to a closed meeting you weren't invited to, bypassed security/ignored protocols, menacingly charged/lunged toward the secretary of DHS, etc.

what do you think would happen to you?

who you are/claim to be is irrelevant, "no one is above the law", remember?

Not if asking a question is all they did, no. That would be considered assault if that's all they did.

Heroes

Never

Is it ok to ask misleading questions that leave out key facts about the context of situations? Or is this just a "hypothetical" situation?
How about this, is it ok for the FBI to handcuff Trump for asking a question?

NEVER!!

Freedom of speech is our most sacred right!!

Ask FBI

He should have identified himself from the start, and acted like a courteous human being!

id have given him a few whacks with the billy club for good measure

That was nothing. Man up...💐

I love it that the only people who aren't saying hell no to this are finding ways to rationalize and justify, because if they were to acknowledge that this is exactly what happened, they would not be able to defend it.

In North Korea

Only if the senator is a Democrat.

No. That should be obvious but unfortunately in Trumpistan it is not.

No

If they pull a gun or knife on the floor, sure otherwise, no.
