Holding a sign is disrupting?
Yes, it would certainly be distracting at the very least, but also offensive.
'Disruptive'. And intended to be, not an accident.
Even the US has laws on where and when it is appropriate.
He is allowed to have a contrary view, but nobody wanted to listen to him, so now he maliciously tries to hijack the attention from a public ceremony.
lol "distracting". There is no guarantee when you participate in public life that you will not be distracted. How absolutely ridiculous.
It doesn't matter if nobody likes my opinion or doesn't want to hear it. That doesn't mean I lose my rights of free speech. Once again, there is no guarantee when you move about in public life that nothing annoying you, distracting you, or saying something you disagree with won't happen. Don't you see how impossible public life would be if each person had such as right? I could instantly silence anyone and have them arrested because they hurt my feelings.
No idea what US laws have to do with this. Holding a sign up anywhere should not be a crime, and you should not be held in care overnight for doing it.
I think you are conflating speech and action. He was not arrested for having that idea, or communicating it.
He was detained for attempting to disrupt a public ceremony.
The right to speech does not come with the right to do it anywhere at anytime.
