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.
Putting words in my mouth that I didn’t say and don’t believe. Literally the stupidest form of debate there is, employed by the shallowest of thinkers. It’s much easier to dismiss an opponent when you can just invent their arguments.
I don’t hold ANY of the beliefs you just listed.
It’s extremely obvious to everyone reading your posts that you absolutely 100% think that not hating Russians enough is worse than mass murder.

Comparing China to Russia is silly, and comparing China to America is disqualifyingly ridiculous
What “military aggression” do you see from China that is even remotely comparable to that of the USA?
Ships in the South China Sea? Fistfights with Indian border guards?
I skimmed it, not going to closely read all that horseshit.
The point is that is that you think Trump is uniquely bad, worse than presidents who killed millions and it’s because he’s not as bigoted against Russians as you are.
He’s a monster but he’s OBVIOUSLY not worse than GWB unless you don’t value the lives of Arabs at all, you racist scumbag.
Yes you do.
It’s so easy to just make up lies, and demand they be accepted as truth. In America, that’s a MAGA Nazi strategy.
The only difference between the set of bloodthirsty imperial freaks you take issue with, and the set you belong to, is that liberal fascists insist on lying to themselves about what they are.
You said that Trump is the worst president ever, so clearly the genocides and slavery of previous presidents doesn’t bother you all that much.
