Reply #58: When someone is arrested and treated the way she and so many

[sabrina 1]

others were during the past eight years, in the vicinity of the president, it is relevant to compare how those same issues are being handled now, under a different administration. If she was no threat to anyone there, including the president, as I asked before (rhetorically) why was she arrested in the first place?

The relevance is that what she did, even if you were stupid enough to agree with the arrest, was far less threatening than if her tee-shirt's message was a threat to the president or his family. And if that had been the case, I am almost certain that people on this thread would have applauded her arrest for, if nothing else, stupidity.

But here we have a rightwinger doing what you have to agree, would have gotten her charged with a crime, and the SS simply questions him and lets him go. The relevance is the disparity in the treatment of Democratic dissenters and Republican dissenters.

As far as how the SS handled everything then and now, it is like night and day whether you are aware of it or not, and they do work in conjunction with local law enforcement who often make the arrests after receiving word from the SS.
