Actually this was before he attended the rally. He had gone there to scope out the area before the rally.

Yes, this was a pre-rally intimidation.
He had gone to the Capitol previously looking around, they viewed it as suspicious.

They view us all as suspicious.

I watched the video and the two officers were very polite in their meeting with the guy. They were simply doing their job.

The guy on the other hand, had an attitude that wasn't necessary given the circumstances. Just because they were law enforcement doesn't mean they don't support the citizens' rights too.......

I find it ironic that he would accuse the officers of driving 100 miles just to intimidate him when he himself drove 100 miles to the capital just to inspect the pillars and area days before the rally.......

That is normal to scout a rally/meeting place out before having an event.

I would have ask the police officer if he had a warrant, if he did not I would have told him to go away. If he did I would have call my lawyer or find a layer quickly.

It is a good idea to find a good lawyer to call and have them on speed dial.

He made a mistake talking to them without a lawyer present. Good that he recorded so there is he said issues.
