No protester speech is impeded by the passage of this statute. The only thing impeded is they can’t cross the cordon set by the Secret Service during an event. Obviously Trump can’t exercise his first amendment right if he must appear on stage with Spike Lee right?
Okay, getting a little bit technical, the referenced federal law strengthens the 1st Amendment-protected right of peaceful assembly under 14th Amendment. Insights, corrections welcome.
"(2) a fine under this title or imprisonment for not more than one year, or both, in any other case."
Since there were no firearms or significant bodily inury involved, it looks like (2) above is the maximum punishment in this case. And a Democrat judge will probably let the guy go free.
Again, insights, corrections welcome.
