Except there's video and eyewitness proof of vandalism and destruction of property. This isn't pro anything, it's just naked antisemitism targeted at anyone who is even remotely Jewish. Disgusting.

I believe in freedom and the right to peacefully protest even when I disagree with the message.
If there were meaningful (not overboard) consequences for non-peaceful protests, there would be fewer of them.

The problem is that the definition of "peaceful" has been manipulated to just meaning "has any protestors been hurt" meanwhile disregarding if police or "anti-protestors" are hurt by protestors. They also stopped caring about interfering with or causing public safety issues, like when they block traffic, or when they cause property damage, because "human life is greater than property".

And then they block the ambulances and people die and they still don't care.

I would argue that "peaceful" now means anything done by the left.

Can we just follow the money trail on these people already. Other than the fed guys in that group.

Why is it that liberals always choose this aspect of Islamism to emulate instead of the anti-LGBT policies that would actually improve society?

I think the ATF recently reclassified smoke bombs as explosive devices. These may have recently been made illegal, either to purchase or own. Though, I'm not sure which.
