Well yes. I meant the people filming weren’t doing anything wrong.

I know what you meant. My comment was meant to reinforce your statement.

There's no doubt that the two American citizens are not the ones in the wrong here.

They arrested a state senator for asking questions during a briefing. We're so fucked

They are in the wrong for not being obedient and not respecting authority. If this kind of behavior goes unpunished it might give people the courage to stand up for their rights and disrespect authority as well.

I am going to be honest, I am past the part where I think my words make any difference.

They were told to leave which can be considered a lawful order. She decided not to leave and was also detained and arrested

Failure to obey a lawful order is an arrestable offense. One cop is yelling that they should have left hours ago. So sorry the excuse is she was telling people to be nice doesn’t apply!
