If They Can Arrest Don Lemon For Something As Simple As Breaking The Law, Imagine What They Can Do To You

America woke up this morning to the chilling news that journalist Don Lemon had been arrested by the Department of Justice, sending a terrifying message that if you break the law, you too might also be arrested and face the strong arm of totalitarianism.

If they can come for someone as legitimate and professional as the revered Don Lemon, a man who is both gay and black, just imagine what they can do to you if you break the law. Arrest? Due process? A fair trial? These are all signs of an authoritarian regime running unchecked into fascism.

Lemon was clearly exercising his First Amendment rights when he burst into a church service in St. Paul, Minnesota, last week and yelled at worshippers despite being asked to leave. We all know the First Amendment supersedes trespassing laws and the FACE Act, and if Lemon can get arrested for something as simple as breaking multiple laws, imagine what the authorities can do to you if you do something similar.

So be on the lookout, because the only thing that was standing between your law-breaking activities and being held accountable was Mr. Don Lemon. Now he's out of the way. They're coming for you next.

If you break the law.
