John McCain pretends to be a man of the people and a proud veteran, but when eight members of Iraq Veterans Against the War (IVAW) waited patiently outside his office, hoping the Arizona Senator would spend a few minutes listening to their concerns, McCain refused to see them and had them arrested.
“We wanted to speak to Senator McCain vet-to-vet,”explained Matt Howard, co-director of IVAW and a Marine Corps helicopter mechanic who served two tours of duty in Iraq.
Howard and eight other Iraqi war veterans went to McCain’s office and waited patiently to see him for several hours. McCain was just five doors down from where the veterans were waiting, Howard told the Business Insider.
But instead of dedicating a few minutes to listen to their concerns, McCain ordered his staff to call for the Capitol police to arrest the vets.
“Sen. McCain appreciates the professionalism of the U.S. Capitol police and all that they do to protect senators, staff and visitors to the U.S. Capitol,” a McCain spokeswoman wrote in an e-mail to Stars and Stripes, a newsletter for military personnel.
People’s World reports: The staffer did not mention that the veterans posed no threat whatsoever. In fact, they stood in a friendly at-ease formation during most of their wait.
