At a Midwestern university during Vietnam protest days, the LEOs/State
were taking photographs of those in the crowds.  I have no idea what
those photos were for, or if used in a courtroom (nothing was set
fire, etc. there)...just peaceful protests.

>isn't unreasonable

Free Speech wise, if peaceful protesters have been "evicted" from US,
I'm not sure I'd call that reasonable.

I've not followed those protests, but iirc, there were some unlawful
acts involved.

The T-Borg is on a PR campaign, so he wants a head count of how many
have been evicted.  I'm not opposed to removing the bad apples.
