The video I've seen of one guy talking to two agents had me wondering... He was a lone protestor
and just saw a flyer or a social media post and decided to go. It is clear FBI used AI to identify him. He was rightfully suspicious of how they identified him, as he'd done nothing and was with no one else. He was very polite. I think I immediately would have been interrogating THEM as to why they thought it appropriate to do what they are doing against peaceful protestors and whether or not ANY OF THEM had actually read the constitution--specifically the First Amendment? I would have been polite, but assertive as hell, which would undoubtedly have them pissed off. But, how else to respond to such tactics?
