Some of those arrested for trying to disrupt Saturday’s Anti-Donald Trump rally in downtown Rochester were in city court today, setting off a new round of shouting outside court between supporters of the black-clad anarchists and news photographers.
Saturday’s protesters were not involved, but their supporters again objected to having their pictures taken without their permission although they were in a public place. They tried to block cameras while using their phones to take video of the reporters covering the arraignments. A Channel 8 TV news microphone was knocked off its stand and broken. Curses were flung.
Three of those arrested on Saturday were involved in a dispute with news photographers, one of whom was sucker punched by a masked anarchist after photographing the man, as seen in video posted on Twitter and YouTube.
