For context, here was my question that you quoted but were unclear on what your opinion was:
I bet they were all intending to interfere with strip searches, too, by wearing underwear. Every damn one of 'em!
You see, it is easy to make up some very silly reasons to vilify people and allege they have criminal intent.
Blowing whistles and honking car horns are what happens at political rallies and sporting events, too. I mean
any and
every noisy crowd could be considered as 'interfering with law enforcement', if you try hard enough.
This is why these things are considered as legitimate protest, and are not considered interfering with the law, because they don't, much, do they. I wonder why cars with sirens and lights aren't considered to be interfering with law enforcement, for exactly the same reason?
And, who were ICE actually arresting in this particular quiet neighbourhood outside of a school? Surely they would have sought to justify their presence there by identifying the specific criminals that they expected to catch in their 'sweep'?
