Being there was perfectly legal. Attending a riot can be a lot of fun. In fact, if everyone is well behaved, it's encouraged and called peaceful protest.
Everyone that entered did so illegally. The ones that stayed outside were perfectly legal, and are not part of the group that is still wanted by law enforcement.
Being there was not legal they were told to disperse when they failed to do so it then became a crime.
