   So I'll assume from your non-answer and attempt at deflection that you can't   
   cite and case or statute that allows someone to trespass on private property   
   and override the owner's rights merely by shouting "I'm a journalist!"

   That's because one is literally sacred because it's a house of worship and the   
   other is just a government building that has nothing to do with religion and   
   there can't be sacred by definition.   
      
   We don't worship the government like leftists do.

   But Biden's DOJ prosecuting little old ladies under the exact same law for   
   silently praying on a sidewalk (public property) and throwing them in prison   
   for 40 months wasn't vindictive or anything.

   You have in the past and you didn't capitalize 'white' when you did it. So   
   answer question. Why do you capitalize black but not white? Why are you a   
   racist bigot?

   (1) I didn't use ChatGPT, so there's another strike against you.   
      
   (2) If you're so sure you're right, cite me the state where a misdemeanor   
   isn't a criminal offense.

   Cite them. Don't just say "some states". Tell us which ones.
