The protesters who rushed Ryan Lochte on “Dancing With the Stars” wanted to get revenge for the swimmer embarrassing Americans at the Olympics … and they say they’d do it again.
59-year-old Sam Sotoodeh and 25-year-old Barzeen Soroudi – who are related — explained their antics when they got out of jail Tuesday … still sporting their “No Lochte” shirts. Barzeen says he was in Rio for the games, and Lochtegate made him a target while he was down there.
Even though he put himself in the line of fire with the protest … Sotoodeh has a major issue with the way security guards took him down on the dance floor. Watch, everything about his reaction reeks of lawsuit.
