One suggested possible defense:
"There were NO signs VISIBLE to me that said anything about Tresspassing".
Any signs that could have been posted were almost certainly obsurred by other people, not posted at right height, missing by the time you got there to walk on public property, etc.
Anyone who prefers to read and speak in Spanish, German, Italian, or other languages would also have added defense arguments.
Short fences do not, in of themselves, imply "no admittance" unless also accompanied by proper signage, and/or sufficient officers to tell each and every one there of the change in policy about visiting the Capitol building.
These arguments are in addition to those put forth by others.
P.S.
Many thanks for showing up and trying to right the ship of state.
God bless you all.
