And what, forgive me, are you basing that 'trend seems' assessment on?
Your impressions are, of course, wholly yours and yours to state, and
do not per se require anything in a way of evidence to them.

An attempt by Messrs. LELB macitaji to enumerate the categories of
people who were part of the crowd falls far short of enumerating all of
the kinds of people one could observe, for instance, on TV.LV news
streams, and on seemingly countless pictures capturing the event. Same
- with the kind of actions and "battle cries" attributable to the
crowd. :)

Ya bet ah did! An' ah did git dat presiden' Zalit's real good,
didn' ah? Dat shell teach him a valuable less'n, isn't it? Dis's nat da
Swedish kin'dom - not yet enyways, ke, ke, ke :D


And to summarise - Peteris stated his belief thusly: "I don't believe I
ever decried our country".

I believe the record plainly shows that Peteris did - wilfully,
intentionally but not feloniously - commit one count of what a
reasonable person can characterise as "decried our country." I rest may
"case", ladies and gentlemen. :)
