Let me guess .. they weren't going after a "protestor" like the headline would try to lead you to believe.

"Authorities were investigating [them] for their connection to arson, vandalism and doxing"

And there it is.

I don't know what is in the water, but "I can do crimes, as long as it's part of a protest" seems to be what people actually think these days.

Civil disobedience means accepting punishment. Literally "letter from Birmingham jail" was sent from a jail in Birmingham for a reason.
