    I wanna know if you still support an openly racist and criminal organization.

    I’m sure you do get behind BLM, so you can’t call anyone else racist unless you call yourself racist.

    You're right that he has good lawyers because he has resources. He probably will be perfectly fine. Not so sure that's the case for the other local journalist who was also arrested and doesn't have Lemon's money.

    The real issue is the precedent this sets for all journalists. Three levels of judges refused the warrant - magistrate, district court, and the 8th Circuit. That's not about celebrity or lawyers, that's about the case having no merit.

    The message being sent is clear: be a journalist covering stories critical of those in power, and they'll come after you. That's a 1st Amendment violation.

    Did you read my biography? Exactly you don't know squat about me. So about those black WW2 vets...you agree with their position I assume?

    Sure doesn't sound like a no from a guy who can't go a post without typing "racism" at every turn. The pendulum will swing back the other way and harder than ever.

    You were right when you said he has the resources to skate.

    What did those black WW2 vets do to you for you to hate them so much? Y'all have no shame so I'm not surprised.

    That’s what I thought. So, really, you’re just as bad as a proud boy.

    Before you go, show me where the journalists stormed the church and intimidated anyone like you claimed. You made that comparison, back it up. Or admit you can't and that's why you're leaving.

    It's a waste of time responding to MAGA, you do you...

    DHS was created to protect the U.S. from another terrorist attacks after 9/11. Who would have imagined it would become an organization that terrorizes the local U.S. population?

    This is why rights are important to protect. Allowing the state to violate rights against people you don't like opens the door for them to come after you one day.

    I don't support government leaders targeting reporters and violating the first amendment like you do.

    But you do like activists who storm a church under the guise of “journalism”. As long as they are anti-trump and as long as it’s a white church. You’ll go along under those circumstances. Just like you’ll excuse all the massive fraud on the left that’s being uncovered daily. You’re a left wing narrative guy. Like 90% of this board.

    If that had been a white “journalist” crashing a mosque or black church you would absolutely be singing another tune. Just like 90% of this echo chamber would.

    Don Lemon is finally getting to live out his dream of being a "victim", something all delusional leftist long for. The ironic thing is he is only a victim of his own stupidity just like 99.999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999% of all leftist "victims".

    This isn't controversial at all. The whole democrat party has devolved into faux outrage over scenario's they intentionally create. They don't have any grounds to stand on democratically so they force the issue then cry victim.

    We all know he wouldn't do this in a mosque or near an iman in the west where they straight up talk about killing the non believers because... he wouldn't come out alive. Christians just get abused by leftists from every angle because they CAN. The liberal ecosystem of no accountability is finally being called out.

    FACE act is used all the time against protestors standing outside abortion clinics --

    Office of Public Affairs | Six Defendants Convicted of Federal Civil Rights Conspiracy and Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances (FACE) Act Offenses for Obstructing Access to Reproductive Health Services in Tennessee | United States Department of Justice

    And these are far more tame then the methods used by Lemon, who was in the group chat with the agitators (many professional) so we know it was premeditated.

    You are not a reporter when you commit a crime
    You are a criminal

    My opinion of him doesn't matter and has nothing to do with the first amendment. It seems like if you have a personal dislike of someone, then you don't care about the issues of the constitution. And you seem particularly triggered when people mention racial injustice.

    I already said that I don't like Don Lemon's shows that I've seen and he seems shallow in his stories. I haven't seen that many of them. Mostly I couldn't care less about his stuff.

    If Sengun commits a foul and then tells the ref he is reporting should the ref still give the other player free throws? Or forgive the foul?
