Even though I tried to keep up with the case as it happened, there is a lot I do not know. I listened to Taylor tell his side of the story on a couple of podcasts. Like most everyone else I had to read news stories to get the NY side of the story and I cannot know how much of that was accurate. But it did seem to be an overt statement by the State that the exercise of Constitutionally guaranteed, individual rights won't be tolerated if the State finds them inconvenient.
