There is a way to peacefully protest something then there is a way to get yourself in lots of trouble
And far to many protests end up going the wrong way protesters doing the wrong thing then mob mentality kicks in
I'm anti authority but even I know when you go down that wrong road there are consequences serious consequences at the end of the road
I've been on roofs holding protests - I've challenged authority - I've been to prison, and not for one or two nights for months, for it
I know the difference between a peaceful protest and a hate filled mob do you?
@ecksmc I remember during the BLM protests I was with a group here in the city that was protesting and it was peaceful when it started but then towards the middle of it it started getting rowdier and rowdier and rowdier and I knew it wasn't going to end well. Next thing I knew they were pushing dumpsters into the streets and tipping them over so I looked at my buddy and I said it's time we stepped away and I'm glad we did because all hell broke loose at the cop shop just a few minutes later...
@duglop its just baffles me how some can try and always blame authority for protests going wrong
When fact is once you start smashing things, chasing others, stopping people from going about their business, hurting others, holding signs that are clearly racist, chanting racist things etc....it ain't peaceful you're braking the law - but they same people would be screaming if anyone done anything to them and would want the authorities to take action
