On July 4, 2014, Southall was involved in a two-hour standoff with police. At 7:03 a.m., officers arrived on the scene at Fourth Street and Richard Arrington Boulevard, where they said Southall was armed with a rifle and another gun in a holster.” The man was saying he had a right to bear arms, and had second amendment rights,” said Lt. Sean Edwards said at the time.
Southall surrendered at 10:35 a.m. and police said they were sending him for medical evaluation. “I had a shotgun on my shoulder and a copy of the constitution and I was teaching people about the law,’’ he said. “Because I know the law and know my rights, that’s what makes me a threat. That’s what makes me a bad person. That’s what makes me dangerous.”
Five months later, in December 2014, Southall made headlines again when he and another man were arrested following a Black Lives Matter protest and march at a Homewood Walmart. About 40 people were involved in a peaceful protest, but trouble broke up when the group began to disperse. Southall, and Randall Corey Anderson, 31, of Georgia were taken into custody, and the confrontation was caught on video that got attention on social media.
Anderson was charged was criminal trespass; Southall with criminal trespass, resisting arrest and possession of marijuana. The charges were eventually dismissed for both.
In April 2015, Southall was arrested during a Black Lives Matter protest downtown, a protest that started in front of police headquarters. They carried a banner up and down Fourth Avenue, literally stepping in front of cars, pickups and 18-wheelers so they couldn’t pass.
Protester Avee-Ashanti Shabazz, a co-founder of the Birmingham movement - was handcuffed and put into the police van. Southall, again, went down in dramatic fashion. He was on the ground, surrounded by officers while he hurled curse words and racially-based accusations against them. Misdemeanor charges are still pending in that case.
Just last month, Southall was arrested and tased again during a protest in front of the Homewood City Jail following the in-custody death of 18-year-old Kindra Chapman, who committed suicide hours after being arrested on a robbery charge. Southall and five others were taken into custody after police say they walked in U.S. 31, once again blocking traffic. That case has not yet gone to court either.
He’s had other run-ins with police too, but to date has no criminal convictions. Just recently, several charges against him were dismissed for other incidents he’s had with police — including a scuffle that led to he and a police officer tumbling off the front porch of a Birmingham home.
Thanks for the background info.
