Problem:
A jury or a judge might sentence him to five years in prison.
On appeal, Lemmon may seek a 10 year term.

How many independent journalists were arrested while covering J6?

@jemelehill
They arrested Don Lemon. This is horrifying. I don’t care what your political beliefs or leanings are, what journalism outlet you represent, this absolutely cannot stand.
Jemele Hill?! LOL!
Throw the book at Donny Lemon!
What would one get after sleeping with Don Lemon?
(Punch line too obvious to post.)
Lemon has hired Hunter Biden’s attorney Abbe Lowell to represent him, and Lowell is already all-in on the First Amendment defense:
Lowell is a very accomplished attorney, and if I were in this kind of trouble, I’d be lucky to have him (and very, very broke in the end). However, this defense is a loser for several reasons, the first of which is that Lemon wasn’t the only party to this incident that had First Amendment rights at stake. The First Amendment protects the right to freedom of religious expression, the core of which is the right to worship in one’s own church in peace. Even people claiming to be journalists can’t interrupt worship services and demand impromptu “interviews” with the minister or celebrant, especially inside the church on private property. Lemon filmed himself preparing with the instigators outside before invading the church, and his “interview” consisted of demanding answers to the instigators’ claims and demands.
Beat me to it, Rummy!

Journalist Don LeMon and three other people were arrested Friday in connection with an anti-immigration enforcement protest.
LeMon was arrested by federal agents in Los Angeles, where he had been covering the Grammy Awards
BREAKING: Federal agents surrounded the home of Georgia Fort, a “journalist” who stormed the church with anti-ICE activists in Minneapolis.
Watch her try to play victim.
Incredible
Good... Just because you have First Amendment Rights, in no way means you can use those Rights to infringe on the equal Rights of others...
Not sure why all this seems to bring a noose to mind...
Nick Shirley is a free lance journalist. Don Lemon is a free range chicken.
Probably his biggest career boost in a decade.
A group from the local United Methodist Church has NO First Amendment right guaranteed to enter a worship service at the local Baptist church, interrupt it, appropriate the facility for the declaration of United Methodist tenets and positions that are different from the Baptists, and accuse the Baptists of any wrongdoing, theologically, morally, socially, or otherwise.
A group from the local Orthodox Presbyterian Church has NO First Amendment right guaranteed to enter a worship service at the local Baptist church, interrupt it, appropriate the facility for the declaration of Orthodox Presbyterian tenets and positions that are different from the Baptists, and accuse the Baptists of any wrongdoing, theologically, morally, socially, or otherwise.
A group from the local Charismatic Church has NO First Amendment right guaranteed to enter a worship service at the local Baptist church, interrupt it, appropriate the facility for the declaration of Charismatic tenets and positions that are different from the Baptists, and accuse the Baptists of any wrongdoing, theologically, morally, socially, or otherwise.
May a Baptist pastor or church invite a Presbyterian (or any non-Baptist minister) to the Baptist church to speak or to conduct some other function? I'm sure it happens every day of the world, somewhere on earth, even somewhere in America.
If visitors slip in a church worship service from the street, not specifically invited, the visitor is usually welcomed. THESE DAYS, however, more and more churches have trained security teams (often armed) observing any persons who just "drop in." Our church has a couple of men who conceal-carry at all times.
We pray for visitors to come in and hear the word of God preached, and specifically the saving Gospel of the Grace of God in Christ.
But any visitor (unless we know them personally and they are in close fellowship with us) must temporarily, while in our facility, be seen and not heard. They can pray silently. They can sing along with us, too. We'll make sure they have a songbook to use along with a copy of the Bible. We will never be unkind. We will try to find every reason for them to remain with us and we strive give the visitor our loving attention, not only our glaring attention. We want to minister.
We have testimony services, too, in which any person, even visitors may testify. But no person can just take over. It requires wisdom from Above and the true leadership of God's Spirit to have a Biblically sound and Christ-honoring testimony meeting. No, nobody would be allowed to take over.
The church facility is PRIVATE PROPERTY owned by the church congregation and is controlled or managed by certain leaders according to bylaws.
Our church is NOT A PUBLIC FREE SPEECH VENUE. OUR CHURCH WILL CONTROL THE SPEECH IN THE CHURCH STRUCTURE, AND ON ITS CURTILAGE, AND ON ANY PART OF ITS GROUNDS.
My only problem with his arrest is if it was under the FACE act which I strongly believe is in and of itself unconstitutional.
The Lemon Law.
And he just happened to decide to go to church that day at a random church with all his equipment and just happened to encounter the protest there.
Right?
Don hates white people so much that he married one.
