An Oklahoma man tried to talk about a data center coming to his community.

@404mediaco I wanted to check if this is a misleading headline.
Sadly paywalled. *sigh*
Not that I would be surprised if that was really all there is to it.Addendum, what makes it sus:
"Police arrested him when [sic!] he went a few seconds over his time limit."
It says "when", not "because". The headline reads "for speaking too long". So the question is what else happened there.I was able to access it without email sign-up yesterday, but not today.
Here's the YT video of the meeting, it is cued to the time where he starts speaking [1:54:52] -

@jeffcliff I think language is important. It is "kidnap" or "abduct", not "arrest".
"arrest" is when there is a previously agreed upon reason, clearly not the case here.
