McCain supporter seems to be arrested simply for wearing a McCain shirt to an Obama rally.
Usually videos like this are taken out of context, and cut jerkily to someone with their hands up getting pushed down and handcuffed. This video captures the sentiment moments before the arrest. The man did not appear to be belligerent, goading, or inciting, but was handled aggressively, and arrested.
Certainly this man was arrested and removed for his safety, but that doesn't mean I have to like watching political dissent arrested and forcibly removed to chants of "OH-BAH-MAH!" Where's the ACLU again? Oh yeah, I forgot they only support SOME civil rights.
