Williams has become a recognizable figure at political protest events in the Seattle area. Footage from August 2018 shows Williams being arrested for initiating violence against police at a protest event.
Via KIRO 7 News:
All remained peaceful until one man was taken into custody. Seattle bicycle officers moved in, shouting to the crowd to move. That seemed to upset counter protester Jamal X.
“Move back for what?” he asked, holding his protest sign. “That’s what we’re talking about.”
And soon he, too, was in custody.
