I think they really thought nothing would happen to them, so they went ahead with the selfies and the social media crap. White privilege, to be sure (they weren't BLM protesters so they figured the cops wouldn't do anything - and some of them didn't) - but maybe also an assumption that the majority of the country believed the same lies they believed, so there would be no consequences from posting their pics all over the internet like they'd gone to the Superbowl.

I think the ones who will end up in jail will just see themselves as martyrs for the “cause”. Those of us who are sane will just see them as dumbasses. For sure they probably thought their Lord and Master would pardon them all. Double Dumbasses!
