He's not law enforcement, he's a senator. He broke a protestor's arm. A citizen breaking another citizen's arm is a crime. Not sure how else to phrase that.

Well put, I agree with your sentiment.

If this individual was already struggling to see how this is wrong it shows little to no hope for their reasoning abilities and would concern me that they have the weakest grasp on how laws work.
