The letter of the law versus the spirit of the law is an idiomatic antithesis. When one obeys the letter of the law but not the spirit, one is obeying the literal interpretation of the words (the "letter") of the law, but not necessarily the intent of those who wrote the law. Conversely, when one obeys the spirit of the law but not the letter, one is doing what the authors of the law intended, though not necessarily adhering to the literal wording.

Does this mean I can go to a BLM rally with an alllivesmatter shirt, resist being kicked out, and then when they use force I can sue them?

Using the logic of this guy suing Trump, you bet you can!
Before you do that, though, you should probably go into your local police department screaming "F**k tha police!" until they remove you from the building, then sue them. That'll give you the lawsuit experience you need to really stick it to BLM

Well Trump did say during the campaign he'd pay for the lawsuits.
