Your statement that I am wanting to "argue about legal definitions" is not correct. I was asking for your point of view, since you are obviously a highly qualified legal expert. I was just wondering if you disagreed with any of those statements form the Lincoln edu. Instead of responding to that polite and reasonable question, you double down on your rather arrogant and cold assessment that I'm wasting your and others time with something I'm not even qualified to talk about -- or do I misinterpret your writing.

As we all know, highly trained legal minds are capable of seeing the "right" in some even where people with common sense and a sense of decency see only "wrong". This video is one of those cases. I accept that there may be no legal basis for prosecuting the perpetrators of the video, but I'm not taking your word or anybody else's word for it, yet. I'll refer you again to the second paragraph of my last post, and wish you well.
