peaceably assemble on a grassy knoll along the route of the motorcade. I wave a huge "Trump 2024" banner and shout "Let's go, Brandon" ( except it's not really "Let's go, Brandon" ) as the motorcade goes by. That's all we do, shout and wave banners. No one runs out into the street or throws something at the motorcade or brandishes a firearm.

In which city, county, or state in this country will I be charged with a crime, and what will be the crime with which I am charged?
