Part 9/11:
Descriptions of protestors in costume—ranging from Cookie Monsters to feathered birds—highlight the eccentric and sometimes disturbing nature of the demonstrations. Courtney Davis, a woman dressed in feathers, reportedly chased Sorder while swinging a large stick covered in feathers. She faced charges but was released the same day, adding to the perception of a chaotic legal environment.
Court documents and witness accounts also detail aggressive actions like shoving, shouting, and physical assaults, including an incident where Sorder's camera was broken after he was reportedly surrounded and attacked by protesters. These events underscore a pattern of confrontational behavior that, according to critics, reflects a breakdown of civility and an increase in reckless violence.
