By Kerry Howley From top, Gina Bisignano, Rosanne Boyland, and Guy Reffitt. Photo-Illustration: John Ritter They can’t arrest us all,’’ a future defendant had posted days before, and this was the vibe in the moment, the ecstatic invulnerability that leads someone to smear feces on the floor of the building in which the most powerful country on earth writes its rules.
