Stung by negative public opinion over the brutality of the robo cops sent out to try to silence the people by big city mayors, many of them Democrats btw, and images of Iraq War Vets wounded and looking like they were in Iraq rather than the 'Homeland', all serving only to increase support for the movement, the 'authorities' are now attempting to use the legal system to 'demonize' and 'criminalize' the 1st Amendment.

It should be no surprise that at the forefront of this new 'tactic' is non other than Rahm Emanuel.
