Interesting that there would be people on a "side" that think there was a conspiracy to commit a crime. What crime?

18 U.S.C. § 372 - Conspiring to impede or interfere with a federal officer

  • This refers to physical impediments. Spreading legal information is not an impediment, it is free speech. If all info could be interpreted as impediments to federal officers then phones, the internet, the human voice, etc would be illegal

    • > This refers to physical impediments. Spreading legal information is not an impediment, it is free speech.

      Yes, but physical impediments are physical impediments. The protesters have been repeatedly seen to impede, or attempt to impede, ICE physically.

It's a crime.

What do you have against crime?

Nonviolent political action is often criminalized.

In the fascist's mind, anything that isn't supporting Dear Leader's vision of "greatness" is a crime.

  • We already know that "doxxing" on its own is not a crime, and moreover that [non-undercover] federal agents are not entitled to keep their identities secret.

    We also know that legal observation and making noise does not constitute interference.

    So those may be their stated reasons, but they will not hold up in court.
