NEW ORLEANS (AP) — A Super Bowl halftime show performer was charged Thursday with two misdemeanors, about 4 1/2 months after he ran across the field at the Superdome waving a flag that included the words “Sudan and Free Gaza,” Louisiana State Police said.
Zul-Qarnain Kwame Nantambu, 41, turned himself in to authorities to face of charges resisting a police officer and disturbing the peace by interrupting a lawful assembly, police said. He surrendered in coordination with his attorney and was booked into the Orleans Parish Justice Center.
Nantambu revealed the flag and ran on the field during rapper Kendrick Lamar’s halftime performance on Feb. 9. He was detained on the field after his demonstration but not charged. The NFL said at the time he would be banned for life from league stadiums and events.
According to a statement from police, Nantambu had been hired as an extra performer and “had permission to be on the field during the performance, but did not have permission to demonstrate as he did.”
NFL spokesman Brian McCarthy thanked investigators for their work.
“We take any attempt to disrupt any part of an NFL game, including the halftime show, very seriously and are pleased this individual will be held accountable to the fullest extent of the law,” McCarthy said in a statement.
being a traitor to the USA is a good thing stop trying to sell us on him, we don't like the guy.
It's like when libs call him "bone spurs". Dodging the draft is always the correct thing to do
What you people aren't getting is that your version of this psychopath is coming to your country soon. You all think you are so much better than America, but your hubris will be your undoing, just like in America.
why are you speaking like a batman villain, get your temu-riddler shit outta here
Shoot the messenger, always a good strategy.
Buddy, you don't have a message. You're the same western chauvinist spouting moron we hear every time the tv turns on. All this big talk about how "this isn't the america i know and love" when the shit has been the same for 250 years. Take your baby brained "message" elsewhere
You are both not a messenger and not worth a bullet
I live in america, I have no country
We have to take it back. Don't let the traitors win.
So you want to Make America _____ Again?
I'm not aware of a historical period in the USA that was actually progressive (even like 51% so) when you take into account domestic and foreign policies and realities.
We? As in, the even-worse-than-nazis neoliberals? Luckily, you can't. Material conditions prevent you from ever reaching neoliberalism again
it's traitors to humanity all the way down ya weirdo. the whole structure and system is evil and always has been, there's nothing to reclaim because it was never "ours" to begin with
fuck the usa, fuck patriotism
Take it back to when?
lmao this dumbass thinks only non-Americans could be against America.
No we're perfectly aware of that possibility, we just understand that your childlike liberal non-understanding of how we ended up in this situation is completely laughable.
