Posting stupid things like this is why you’re an azz . You only know she’s anti Trump and pro bad hombres. The rest doesn’t matter. All the corruption and arrests in her administration means nothing to you. You’re just a clueless yokel 

Wu had a political opponent, a gay black man , arrested yesterday. Thats the Wu way

BOSTON

—Boston Mayor Michelle Wu’s rally at City Hall Plaza on Tuesday morning was supposed to be about Donald Trump. Instead, it ended with one of her own political opponents hauled off to jail in front of the cameras — all to the upbeat soundtrack of a mariachi band hired to set the mood.

District 7 City Council candidate Shawn Nelson, a Black gay activist, says he turned up to protest on the public sidewalk in a “Shame on Wu” T-shirt with a megaphone. According to Nelson, he respected a court order by staying more than 50 feet away from the event. Within minutes, nine Boston police officers surrounded him. By 10 a.m., he was in handcuffs facing charges of disorderly conduct and disturbing the peace.

The scene unfolded just as Wu was lecturing about democracy and attacking Trump for authoritarianism. The optics were undeniable: a mayor railing about freedom while her own rival was dragged off in handcuffs a few yards away. All the while, the mariachi band kept playing, as if Boston politics had suddenly turned into a tragicomedy.

Nine cops for one candidate

Nelson described the arrest as blatant suppression. “These are the same ‘go-to charges’ used to silence critics,” he said in a statement. “Pro-Palestine protesters use megaphones. Abortion rights protesters use megaphones. Climate activists use megaphones. Even Michelle Wu herself has been caught on camera using one. But when a Black gay man running for City Council dares to speak out? The full weight of law enforcement comes down.”

For three years, megaphones have been a staple of protest in Boston. Climate activists blocked streets with them. Abortion rights activists blasted them in front of the State House. Pro-Palestine demonstrators used them repeatedly outside City Hall. None faced arrest. Yet Nelson, standing alone on the sidewalk, found himself facing nine police officers. Behind him, the trumpets and guitars of Wu’s band carried on as though nothing was happening.

No need to call me names: I didn’t know about the other stuff you’re accusing her of and frankly I don’t care. I’m not taking your word for it though. 
 

Maybe she’s corrupt and a terrible person and all of the other stuff you’re accusing her of. No matter she opposes Trump on the extremely important issue (for me) of Sanctuary Cities. I seriously see this as a defining issue of our times and what it means to be an American. I’m not trolling, not joking around here. The fact that she comes from Boston makes it sweeter because Boston’s abolitionists played such a large role defying the federal government during the slavery years and I find tremendous parallels. 
 

I know you disagree. I think that, despite your views on this issue, you’re a pretty good dude. I just think you’re misguided here. Best wishes.

“Faith traditions call upon us to welcome the stranger, protect the vulnerable, and love our neighbors.”
