Earlier this afternoon, alt-right Jewish commentator Laura Loomer handcuffed herself to the front doors of Twitter’s New York headquarters.

She shows up to Twitter office building in NYC.
She handcuffs herself to one door handle to protest getting banned or suspended or something.
Twitter shrugs, figures she'll get cold or need a restroom eventually, and she's not really blocking the door.
Cops shrug, since nobody wants to press charges and she's not creating danger for anyone.
Internet laughs at her, but not in a good way.
She realizes Twitter doesn't care, the media doesn't care, the cops don't care, so she gives up.
She realizes she doesn't have the keys and has to ask the cops to cut her free.
Womp womp.

I immediately thought she was at the Twitter HQ in San Francisco - where it’s been raining all day.
