Gee, people in the US need to be this cautious when protesting? Where I live it’s totally fine to just casually show up at protests, take selfies, talk to people and whatnot.

It probably also depends on whether you are just holding a sign or straight up rioting.

No…we don’t. This I’m assuming is showing someone who’s idea of protesting is burning cars and businesses down.

Sounds like someone doesn’t know (or care) what can happen to protestors that are protesting the “wrong things”… Like oil and gas pipelines, for example, or training centers for heightened police militarization. Or foreign policy, even, that one has been happening for generations already.

Lol if only they would protest the right way, they wouldn’t have to worry about anything, right?
