Plenty of folks have been complaining at such meetings, just as they did years ago.  And nobody has been arrested for complaining.  Maybe a few were arrested or banned for making threats.
Wrong

Was he arrested for complaining, or some other act?

I know for a fact that plenty of folks continue to complain at school board meetings.  It's common.  And not something new.

I've complained at school board meetings.  They sort of listened and ignored me.

Waste of time.

From the article:


"Eugene declined to provide additional details about what led to his arrest, citing advice from his attorney."

But you can find more here:



Quote
The meeting was held at the Hattie Mae White Educational Support Center, with limited capacity due to COVID-19 restrictions, allowing only 35 people inside. Unfortunately, Eugene and numerous other speakers and members of the public were denied entry into the auditorium. Witnesses reported that Eugene, along with two other Black men, were escorted out of the building when they refused to relocate to an overflow room, where participants were required to deliver their comments via webcam.


Eyewitnesses claim that Eugene, maintaining a peaceful demeanor, attempted to reenter the support center but was swiftly apprehended. He was subsequently released from custody the following day, as court records confirm. Both Eugene and HISD have refrained from commenting on the arrest, citing the ongoing nature of the case.
So... Sounds like he wasn't arrested for saying he was complaining about something the school board wanted to do. 

Not defending the school board here BTW. Only pointing out that this is clearly misconstrued by 320 about someone being arrested for voicing an opinion.

I had read it in mass media and they shanguied brandon's name didn't bother reading any further but enough outlets ran with it  can YOU state absolutely he didn't? check back later a friend a couple of streets over lost power
I think this comes back to my main point.

That article was catnip for people was wanted to be offended by a particular thing. That thing being the side of the political aisle they don’t agree with. It’s basically “senile man bad” to counter “orange man bad.”

and if we want to indulge in sort of fluffy “senile man bad” complaints, hey, it’s a free country. But I’ll point out what it is if I feel like.

Again I didn't read it but enough media services were/are stating it and back to the original point 320 wasn't discussing any particular of this when he made a vague comment and you piled on with assumptions,Good Day

Remember:  school board members are separate from the schools themselves and are elected members of the community.  Just normal people who seek it out.
