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.
But none for kanye advertising swastika shirts on that same superbowl. These lot are awful at hiding their alignment. Fortunately for them many people are not good are seeing where the winds blow
Big american industrialists supporting nazi germany before the war energy.
And wasn’t Musk there, too? You know, the guy who “”““made an awkward hand gesture””“” and peddles Great Replacement. Great Replacement is a white supremacist conspiracy theory believing Jews are smuggling black/brown men into the US/Europe in order to seduce white women and “out breed” the white race.
Its ok. ADL told me that isn’t nazi. The same ADL that had primers for law enforcement to infiltrate antifa right after Charlotteville antifa opposing guys saying “Jews will not replace us”. They took that one back real quick
Fuck I completely forgot about that

Best part of getting rid of downvotes.

Death to America, Death to the Zionist Entity, and Death to American Football.
We take any attempt to disrupt any part of an NFL game, including the halftime show, very seriously but don’t really give a shit about the first amendment"
That disturbing the peace is doing so much heavy lifting from the sounds of it. If not that, why is a cop after him? Unless the 41 year old was really popping the fuck off and made the case as bad as can be then this seems like the case of a lifetime. Imagine how much money you could suck from the NFL for winning and doing a civil case.
Nice to see the NFL excited that dude was held accountable for his crime while avoiding accountability for CTE. Football needs to go away
If “Childish response.” isn’t a tagline and HitlerPig isn’t registered already we should close up shop
You called? I’m here to be a traitor to America
Yes everyone it’s true my brainpan is much more like the slavic type. I am a traitor to all the good Americans and I betray America’s founding values such as only valuing people who own property.
The lib is right
