This is me getting arrested in the Capitol in 2012 for legally documenting a hearing on #fracking.
I was charged with “unlawful entry”.
There were two dozen cops present. I was arrested within 15 mins.
Never doubt what happened today.
Capitol police were complicit today.

Actually there’s a really nice jail in the Capitol.
The cleanest emptiest jail I’ve ever been in.
I always tell folks- if you want to get arrested, do it in the Capitol because it’s so cush.
All day I thought about that clean empty jail where I was handcuffed to the wall.

Watching these white supremacists trashing the capitol I remembered every pair of zip ties. Every friend shot by a rubber bullet. Every cop brutalizing a friend.
I’m so angry I’m on the verge of tears.
We did not deserve that treatment.
These cops are so hypocritical.

Charges were dropped, of course, because they would have never held up.
The arrest was ordered by the Republican chairperson of the committee, Andy Harris.

Oh yeah the whole thing is the last scene in Gasland part 2 (not to plug or anything...)
