Once again, I have to wonder where these people got the money to go to the protest?
As always, "Follow the money!"
Exactly where did anyone in your story say that that had a hard time understanding anything...or are you just sensationalising??..

It is constitutional to protest. If I don't like your church or the way you practice your religion, the Cosntitution says I have a right to protest that displeasure.

What I dont have a right to do is block your free excersise of your religion in your place of worship...other than that, The Constitution says all bets are off.

That's ok...the constitution is a semi-complex document, not many people actually understand it.

Great - then explain why liberals support every bill that opposes the free exercise of religion?

Democrats hate the First Amendment.

There are no "bills" opposing the free excercise of religion, because that bill and subsequent law would be ruled unconstitutional.

Unless you have a specific bill or law in mind, I don't know what you are talking about.

Did you actually read the story and see how those arrested were to be charged?
Is it really that difficult to understand that the things they are to be charged with are ILLEGAL, and therefore you should do your protesting while avoiding doing anything that IS illegal and could get you arrested?
And again, who paid for all these people to come to the Capital for the protest? Did they do it with their own money, or were they subsidized by some organization? I feel very strongly about some things, but I sure couldn't afford to take off and go to Helena to protest, I have to be happy with writing letters.
It costs a lot of money to do that kind of traveling, plus meals and lodging.
SOMEBODY has to be paying for it. Are the protesters doing it on their own dime?
If so, they must be some pretty wealthy folks!
