Ahmed Ghanim, a Democrat, says he accepted an invitation to the event and was seated in the Royal Oak Music Theatre when a campaign organizer ordered him to leave.
“She took me to the door, and she closed it, and I found two police officers waiting there, and she said, ‘You have to leave right now,’” Ghanim tells Metro Times. “I asked why she was kicking me out. She wouldn’t answer. I was very calmly asking why I was being kicked out.”
He continues, “I was just wearing a suit and a white shirt. I said, ‘OK,’ and I left. The police officer said, ‘You either leave now or I’ll put you in the back of my car.’”
People downvote things they disagree with or that seem like astroturfing all the time. Nothing odd about that.
What is odd is that no effort was shown trying to determine why he was removed, but blame seems to be cast at Harris. What is odd are some of the quotes. In getting kicked out he said, “I was just in my suit and white shirt.”
Was there a question about what he was wearing that went unmentioned? What a weird thing to say unprompted, so I assume there’s context to that statement which the article doesn’t include. Any reason for that?
It doesn’t seem like a great article. It’s news. It’s worth trying to get to the bottom of. It would be nice to understand who made that decision and what was going on in their head at the time. It would’ve been nice if the article did anything useful instead of rumor mongering.
This is such a bad piece of journalism I’m not at all shocked it’s being downvoted. Not that popular articles aren’t poorly written but I guess the headline says what people want to hear. Nature of social media.
5 paragraphs of nothing
And this is what you call irony.
Much like the article, except the article was much longer.
Edit: You are no different. Downvoting and insulting things you don’t want to hear. So don’t pretend not to understand how this works when you are part of the problem.
You can’t even write a song about pirates
I mean… that’s a fair criticism.
