U.S. Attorney's Office doesn't have any info yet. "All I know is they're downstairs," says official.

U.S. Attorney's Office is being absolutely flooded with phone calls right now. The phone just keeps ringing and ringing.

Okay, so here's the deal. @deray, @Nettaaaaaaaa et al are getting summons and will be released this afternoon, I'm told.

The problem is that they only have two fingerprint machines, and around 50 people were arrested. So this could take awhile.

Spokeswoman for U.S. Attorney's Office tells me they'll get a court date and face a fine of around $125.

@ryanjreilly Were they not a public building?

@misterjonesisme @ryanjreilly Just like the Supreme Court can limit access to its property. Long established precedent.

@sunnyright Again I ask, if the public cannot air its grievances to the public authorities without fear of arrest, where do we go?

@misterjonesisme I have a right to carry a weapon in my state. If I carry it into a government building, I go to prison. There are rules.

@sunnyright Again, they were outside of the building, not inside. Also, firearms have most definitely taken more lives than words/posters.

@misterjonesisme Though let us bear in mind on a broader topic, words and posters are often what incites, endorses, defends violence

@ryanjreilly @Kajubitch They should be charged with terrorism. #BlackLivesMatter is a terrorist organization.

@youlootweshoot @kajubitch @ryanjreilly I think they are very close to becoming just that....the black kkk.....
