The people who took over a church to protest were in the wrong, but how exactly is Don Lemon at fault?
Colluding. He was with the group before they went in, he knew what they were going to do and went in with them. I agree it's a bit shaky as he's a "journalist" but that's my understanding as of now
He's also on camera saying the "protest's" goal was trauma and intimidation, which he participated in
Okay, now I want someone to explain to me how this is different from Trump's conduct on Jan 6.
Trump didn't go in. That's a pretty big difference for starters.
That's about the only difference. And Lemon "went in" to report on the event, right?
I just think that it's really ludicrous for people to have gone on about Biden and the Democrats' grave violations of free speech in talking to social media platforms and meanwhile Trump's government does this stuff and it's all A-OK. Come on now.
The protestors freedom of speech doesn't supersede the church goers freedom of speech and religion.
That's not the issue. Prosecute them, fine. Threatening a reporter for being on the scene is something else.Hi friends, this is my Uncle Don. He is unemployed but spends most days talking into his computer, where he says people pay him to comment on the news. We believe he thinks he's some sort of television anchor. A few days ago, he left his home in NYC then appeared on social media… pic.twitter.com/KNLPdXj23e

Apparently two things are true here:
1. Don Lemon is a loser has-been who no one should care about.
2. Don Lemon is also worthy of major attention from the DoJ.
The one does not follow from the other, IMO.
It does when he interrupts a religious service and potentially breaks federal law.
