Update: Laura got her sign back, is still handcuffed to Twitter HQ.
The police have moved Laura's livestreamer and everyone else ascross the street. Fortunately, Laura can yell over it: "This is equivalent to book burning!"
Laura Loomer's handcuff stunt is being received pretty poorly on conservative Twitter.

The police ask Laura Loomer what she wants. Loomer: "I want my Twitter!"
Police say Twitter isn't pressing charges against Laura Loomer, so she can stay as long as she wants. The protest continues! If Laura wants to leave, the police say they'll cut the handcuff whenever she wants.
