Would you like to make a bet on that? They aren't coming back with a warrant. Six cops at one church? This looks as bad as it is. They wanted quiet compliance. They sent six officers to give the impression of overwhelming force. That pastor sent them away with nothing but a load of bad publicity. It's all recorded and all over the internet. If they had any justification, they would not have left.
His follow up crew behind him should have "media-frenzied" them as well.
Nothing about that had legal grounds it was all just to coerce compliance. I would have been asking for each ones individual name and badge number while recording. Reminding them they are in a public place of gathering and worship where no crimes are being committed. And reminding them that I do not wish to know why they are here but hat they have no reason or justification to be.
Just constantly asking them if they realize that, if they are aware of that, one by one, on video.
"And don't come back without a warrant!!"
Ok. So they get a 'warrant' and return. Then what?

I like the way you think.
