More People Are Indicted For The City Church Protests + Is Religion A Shield For Anything?

A few days ago according to news reports there were more indictments against protesters at the City Church:

Attorney General Pam Bondi announced charges Friday against 30 more people who are accused of civil rights violations in a January protest inside a Minnesota church where a pastor works for Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

Bondi said on social media that 25 people were in custody and more arrests would follow. The new indictment comes a month after independent journalists 

Don Lemon and Georgia Fort and prominent local activist Nekima Levy Armstrong were charged for their alleged roles in the protest at Cities Church in St. Paul, Minnesota.

According to the reports there are a total of 39 people that have been charged/indicted for interfering with religious rights and freedoms. 

People will say this next question is hyperbolic in nature, but does religious freedom protect those who are complicit in systems that are racist, xenophobic, illegal, and allowed agents to murder and perform multiple aggravated assaults against non-violent persons which have all been challenged, and took away civil rights of citizens, and deported legal immigrants?

I don't think that anyone doing a peaceful protest, even in a church and during a church service, should be indicted for that protest. To be indicted at a federal level is part and parcel for this administration and its watch dogs in order to use religion to cover up illegal activities. 

Stand With Georgia Fort, Trahern Jeen Crews, Jamael Lydell Lundy, And Don Lemon

Earlier this morning local independent journalist Georgia Fort as well as protesters Trahern Jeen Crews, and Jamael Lydell Lundy were taken into custody by federal agents. National independent journalist Don Lemon was also taken into custody as well. Fort and Lemon were taken into custody for covering the Citizen Church protest while Crews and Lundy were taken into custody for being protesters at the church.

This was Pam Bondi's message on X.

We should all remember our 1st Amendment Rights at this time as we stand with them in protest and power. We should all remember these were not coordinated "attacks" but a protest to help try and shine a light on where ICE leaders are hiding as they are all complicit in what is happening in our state.
