Spider-Man Punches Racists At Minneapolis Protest And Gets Arrested
A Spider-Man cosplayer has gone viral over the weekend, living up to the hero he portrays by punching racist Jan. 6 rioter Jake Lang at a protest event in Minneapolis. In videos of the incident, the Spider-Man is seen jumping on a truck transporting Lang as it drives through crowds of counter-protestors on what appears to be a sidewalk. Spidey is seen fighting with Lang to take down his sign bearing the N-word. In the tussle, photographer Chris Juhn captured an image that is both an accidental renaissance painting and a kick-ass comic book cover.
White supremacist and Jan. 6 rioter Jake Lang and a bunch of his fuck-ass racists allies were in Minneapolis in support of Shiloh Hendrix , a Minnesota woman who went viral for shouting racial slurs at an 8-year-old autistic Black boy last year. The incident made her a cause célèbre among losers and she has raised almost a million dollars in the aftermath of going viral. She was charged with two counts of disorderly conduct, was found guilty of just one, and fined $1,000 when the trial ended earlier this year prompting Lang to hold a "N- March" at which Hendrix was invited as a guest speaker.
Lang and Spidey were arrested and the Spider-Man cosplayer claims the cops did not read him his rights. Spidey has started a Go Fund Me to help with his legal defense.
