It is what it is. Neither of us are attorneys, but I still believe that it is hardly a winning case. There is a reasonable argument to say it's just protesting and not intimidation. As long as there is no violence, I don't see enough of a case to merit getting prosecuted for allegedly breaking this law.
No, neither of us are attorneys, but I have worked in the criminal justice system for over twenty years. I know what makes a prosecutable case and what does not. Based on statements on social media and during these protests you could make a very credible beyond a reasonable doubt argument that the law is being broken here. That being said, I do believe you are ultimately correct, no one is being prosecuted unless something violent happens. But that has nothing to do with the law not being broken.
