By outlawing and fining me for using my freedom of expression via a peaceful assembly, they're violating my (b) freedom of expression & (c) freedom of peaceful assembly.

PPCer: Ok, guess I have to plead guilty since I can barely afford a $2k fine and don't want to set a precedent that can be used against others...
