Not in any technical sense. I will give you that. But the fact that it had to be cancelled or risk being turned into a riot, when there were probably some very sincere and innocent people there who merely wanted a chance to support the man they want for president was taken from them, no ifs, ands, or buts about it.
Most there likely assembled peacefully with no harmful intent, but then had to watch their peaceable, good intentions to support a candidate get trampled on as they were dispersed due to the cancellation.
The few bad apples spoiled the barrel. That spoiling is where rights were lost. Wherever a crime takes place, rights are automatically taken.
