The DOJ’s probe into potential FACE Act and Ku Klux Klan Act violations stemming from Don Lemon’s involvement in an anti-ICE mob storming a Minnesota church is a plot twist straight out of a dystopian novel—where left-wing celebrities lead invasions of sacred spaces, yet suddenly federal law might bite back. For context, the FACE Act, originally designed to shield abortion clinics from pro-life protesters, criminalizes using force or threats to interfere with access to reproductive health services. The KKK Act (18 U.S.C. § 241) targets conspiracies to deprive people of constitutional rights through intimidation. Here, anti-ICE radicals, egged on by Lemon, disrupted a church hosting ICE agents, flipping the script: protesters became the aggressors, potentially facing the same legal hammers they’ve wielded against 2A advocates at gun stores and ranges.
This irony isn’t lost on the Second Amendment community, where we’ve watched FACE-like tactics morph into tools for shutting down firearm retailers under public safety pretexts—think ATF stings disguised as protests or buffer zones around gun shops. If the DOJ enforces these laws consistently here, it sets a precedent that could boomerang: imagine pro-2A rallies at anti-gun NGOs facing similar scrutiny for intimidation. The implications are electric—hypocrisy exposed, as media darlings like Lemon test the limits of protected speech versus criminal conspiracy. For gun owners, it’s a reminder that the right to bear arms isn’t just for defense against tyrants abroad but mobs at home; this case could embolden challenges to selective prosecution, strengthening our fortress against leftist overreach.
Yet, don’t pop the champagne yet—DOJ under Garland has a track record of weaponizing federal statutes against conservatives while giving allies a pass. Will this investigation fizzle like so many J6 probes devolve into slaps on the wrist? Or does it signal a crack in the narrative, where church invasions by elite-backed hordes invite real accountability? 2A patriots should watch closely: if Lemon’s crew faces charges, it validates our vigilance—peaceful assembly with firepower is our bulwark, while their mostly peaceful riots crumble under their own rules. Stay armed, stay informed, and let’s see if justice is finally blind.
