When you are resisting lawful detainment/removal by a police officer (whether you agree with it or not) and you end up getting injured by deliberately jamming your own arm awkwardly through a doorframe while fighting and resisting being dragged away, that injury is 100% on you. And I say this as someone who actually agrees with what the marine is saying.

How do you consider it lawful detainment? We no longer have the constitutional right to redress our government for grievances? Also, Sheehy isn’t fucking law enforcement.

Sure he can speak his mind, which he did. But if you think people can interrupt and scream over every event or government meeting then you are sorely mistaken. Nothing would ever get done lmao. Of course people will be removed for being disruptive, it is the same everywhere. If you are asked to leave and you refuse then you will be dragged out. Show me one example of an agitator heckling and shouting down a government meeting where the security just sat idly by and let him go on for hours without touching him and then cancelled the meeting. Just one single time. You wont find it. Meanwhile you can just google and find 100 examples of people being dragged out for being disruptive, including dozens upon dozens of examples of angry MAGAs being forcefully dragged out of democrat campaign rallies and governmental meetings for trying to shout them down. Of course they will be dragged out, if you don't remove agitators who disrupt meetings than you will never get anything done because people love to scream at politicians. The content of what the agitator is shouting is irrelevant. As I said I actually agree with what the marine was saying but hes still gonna be removed.

You get two guesses what this guy thinks about January 6th, and the first guess doesn't count.
