Actions Have Consequences

On Friday, Breitbart posted an article about the arrest of Don Lemon for his actions inside a Minnesota Church last weekend.

The article includes a statement by Don Lemon’s lawyer:

Don Lemon was taken into custody by federal agents last night in Los Angeles, where he was covering the Grammy award. Don has been a journalist for 30 years, and his constitutionally protected work in Minneapolis was no different than what he has always done. The First Amendment exists to protect journalists whose role it is to shine light on the truth and hold those in power accountable.

Instead of investigating the federal agents who killed two peaceful Minnesota protesters, the Trump Justice Department is devoting its time, attention and resources to this arrest, and that is the real indictment of wrongdoing in this case. This unprecedented attack on the First Amendment and transparent attempt to distract attention from the many crises facing this administration will not stand. Don will fight these charges vigorously and thoroughly in court.

What about Don Lemon’s attack on the First Amendment rights of the people in the church? It has been reported that the rioters prevented the church members from getting to their children to remove them from the chaos. That is not a protest–that is terrorizing children.

The article concludes:

A Department of Justice attempt to arrest Lemon last week was foiled by an appellate court in the U.S. District Court in Minnesota that refused to sign off on the arrest warrant. Per CBS, this arrest warrant was the result of a grand jury indictment.

Do you want ‘protesters’ coming into your church and creating havoc? There are laws against that, and Don Lemon broke those laws.
