Amid protests over immigration enforcement by leftists in Minneapolis, a group of Black Lives Matter demonstrators allegedly invaded a service at a church whose pastor they claimed was an Immigration and Customs Enforcement official. (Ex-CNN talking head Don Lemon was also there, claiming to be an independent journalist.) The U.S. Department of Justice has issued statements that they are investigating the incident, with the possibility of pressing charges under the FACE Act, a piece of legislation enacted in 1994 to deter protests at abortion clinics that contains a provision extending its provisions to religious worship sites, or the Ku Klux Klan Act, Reconstruction-era legislation that made interfering with Americans’ civil rights a federal crime. Already, the federal government has announced that multiple activists involved in the demonstration have been arrested. Is that reasonable? We are joined by Manhattan Institute legal policy fellow Tal Fortgang to discuss.
