I guess you still haven't familiarized yourself with the relevant
Massachusetts case law regarding disorderly conduct...
FYI, the courts in MA have held that disorderly conduct generally only applies to behaviour designed to incite a riot. Using the word "tumultuous" in a police report a bunch of times doesn't really meet the legal standard. In particular, political speech is always protected--since if it weren't that would be in violation of another little legal guideline that they like to follow down there.
I'd say "why can you not accept that fact?" except.... well, I'll let you draw your own conclusions.
