Protesting outside ruins the point of the action, which is, why should ICE fucks be given the sanctuary they deny others? Churches aren't public spaces, but they do claim to be open to everyone. So these people attended and filmed a church service. Not illegal. They interrupted a church service - akin to Jesus overturning the the money-lenders tables at the Temple. False prophets deserve to be outed.
