You can base your opinion on anything you'd like, but compliance with a statute is not a matter of opinion. Facts are required. The facts here appear to contradict your stated opinion on the matter.

The police do not have to witness something to have reasonable suspicion if they receive credible information that the elements of a crime may be present. The complainant in this case said she saw men with guns on their hips. This is lawful conduct. Thus, the credible information they received did not provide them with information that the elements of a crime were present.

Yes, we disagree about the law.

So what?

We don’t disagree about the charges.

lots of leeway to suspect you’ve been disorderly...

947.01 Disorderly conduct. Whoever, in a public or private
place, engages in violent, abusive, indecent, profane, boisterous, unreasonably loud or otherwise disorderly conduct under circumstances in which the conduct tends to cause or provoke a disturbance is guilty of a Class B misdemeanor.
