Minnesota burb tries to criminalize anti-police protests

Hick towns are everywhere, and every state has some. You have a constitutional right to peacefully assemble to petition the government for redress of grievances in most places, but not in Bloomington, Minnesota, where local authorities sent undercover cops to protesters’ planning meetings in order to identify the ringleaders, then charged them with a laundry list of petty infractions like “aiding and abetting trespassing.” I guess the police there Roger-Rabbit-icon1don’t like protests against police abuse of citizens. So, what the hell, let’s stomp on citizens’ constitutional rights some more.
