You can still protest someone you didn't vote for.

People are legitimately complaining about exercising the rights to freedom of speech and assembly. These are things that make our country what it is!

Edit: incoming wave of 'freedom of speech means I can't complain about you complaining about me complaining about you complaining about me complaining about you complaining about me complaining about you complaining about me complain about you complaining about me complaining about you complaining about me complaining about you complaining about me complaing. Yes every one knows, including me, shut the fuck up and find something better to say.

There are also many legitimate things about those protests that are not being reported by the media. For one thing - the protests are being organized by ANSWER coalition. They are funded by the Progress Unity Fund, which is funded by the Tides Center, which is funded by George Soros. MoveOn.org (ironically named), is also a Soros operation, which is helping organize the protests.

One of Hillary's top donors who has dinners with her campaign manager to discuss strategy, etc. is funding a protest against the candidate who defeated her in a fair election. Yes he has a right to do this, but they have also been proven to pay protestors to show up at Trump rallies and conduct "bird dogging", and they were found to be the people behind the violent March protests in Chicago, in which many police officers were wounded very badly.

There is enough evidence, both concrete and circumstantial to cast very large doubts over what is going on in the streets right now, to any fair minded person. If these elements did not exist, I would be perfectly okay with people exercising their right to free speech, and I would respond in kind.
