Civil disobedience expects arrests. That's the price for stiring trouble and bringing issues of marginalized constituents to the forefront. MLK and even elected Representatives like John Lewis would engage it what he called "good trouble" and racked up many nights in jail and numerous fines, a small price to pay in the fight for social change. If they had been arrested for civil disobedience no one would of batted an eye. Stripping them of the seats that voters put them in however, and for bringing the voice of those voters to the chambers no less, is nothing short of outrageous and the world is watching what you bigots do and how you comport yourselves.At least one is from Memphis, it is quite possible, especially if they don't mind the fact that their actions cost those particular taxpayers the financial and actual work and logistics of mounting a special election, when they could have acted as they were supposed to, instead of like assholes on a political internet message board, trying to rule the room, until somebody calls the Mods.
