that said that the protesters were pushing the boundaries of what it means to peacefully assemble, taking the language from the First Amendment.

And I thought we'd done a really good job with this.

We also included a picture of Alex Preti before he was killed kicking out a taillight on a police car and made a point of saying, this is Alex Preti and this is what he did.

We get the piece approved by everyone.
