What limits should protest have?

[Costanza]

Is it “By any means necessary”?

Or is it “How dare they disrupt traffic?”

Or is disrupting traffic justifiable but a bad tactic because it targets the wrong people?

Or is it also wrong to “harass” public officials at their homes and when they are out living their lives?

Free speech or federal crime? Protesters are still marching outside conservative Supreme Court justices’ homes

Some senators want to use a federal law to charge those who continue to picket — even though it could be on shaky constitutional grounds.

How a Climate Group That Has Made Chaos Its Brand Got the White House’s Ear - Inside Climate News

In less than a year, Climate Defiance has drawn the admiration of activists and the ire of government leaders and CEOs. It may be a sign of an appetite among activists for more peaceful but confrontational direct action.

If this don't sound like some faux noise shit...

 

[APOPHIS]

Protesting and rioting are the last resort of the common people against the bourgeoisie and the government. It's not intended to be a civil process, as every form of civil discussion or proposed solution has been ignored, mocked, denied, and rejected. Its very nature is to advance the will of the people and impose their wants and asks, be it through force or chaos.

Ain't no such thing as a "nice" protest!

I’m not saying there should be- I generally side with the protesters.

I’m not expecting most here do, though…

“Why no attacks or protesters against Republicans?” seems like something @Camille might say.

“Chase that clout queen” sounds so much like @Big Tex that I may have found his burner.

I thought this was a serious thread until I saw all the MAGA shit.

Those are mostly Democrats I just posted!

Affluent Democrats and Republicans both hate protesters and partisans on both sides attack their existence.

I don’t really care about the ideology, whether it is anti-abortion people on the right who are upset or it’s anti-genocide people on the “far left.”

You’re missing the point… The question in this thread is which tactics are acceptable.

MAGA appointed a third of the Supreme Court and the protests outside their home were a big part of this conversation… It wouldn’t make sense not to include it. Today the issue is people protesting America’s support of Israel. The discussion would be missing a lot if it only looked at one side.

That's because dems don't have the votes to pass funding on their own. The GOP votes for it also. Dems don't even have control of the house and Trump said Israel needs to finish them. If they cared about Gaza they would be targeting everyone, not just dems. Mike Johnson would be getting the brunt of it because he controls whether it makes it to the floor or not. Any GOP against funding is only trying to placate Trump about Ukraine. They were willing to do stand alone funding for Israel. Mike isn't bringing the bill to the floor because he knows it will pass and they don't want to piss off Trump over Ukraine.

 

[Hey Julian!]

Much like free speech, the freedom to use it doesn‘t mean freedom from consequences. If you protesting some shit and IDGAF about it then prepare to get potentially ran over if I’m on my way to work. If you say the wrong shit to me because of your right of free speech, prepare to get these hands. Know when it’s time to use either and prepare for what might happen after.

In a two party system, if the party that is supposed to be on your side isn't, it makes no sense to attempt the more difficult task of converting your staunch opponents.

If Dems won't do the right thing when they don't have the votes, there's no reason to expect them to when they do.

This is just the LAMEST excuse making.

[God-Of-War-420]

Protests with limits and no violence/destruction = A childs temper tantrum to the government.

Since the tea party people only listen when a couple crates are broken and shit is thrown into the sea, and a few businesses are set on fire. No justice, no peace.

Americans' Views of Both Israel, Palestinian Authority Down

Americans' opinions of both Israel and the Palestinian Authority have declined in the past year, but they still view Israel much more positively.

"A separate question in the poll underscores Americans’ leanings toward Israel, as it finds 51% saying they sympathize more with the Israelis and 27% more with the Palestinians."

Just Imagine you have an airplane flight to a loved one funeral, and, if you miss it, not only do you lose your money, but the next available flight is two days after the funeral and you get stuck for two hours behind some protest, and wind up missing the plane.

 

[ORIGINAL NATION]

What is strange is that we support devils as our superiors like what we saw in Jonestown. Us blacks as the original people of the earth actually have watched how we support what was grafted from us ( other races ) including the devil race ( whites ). And we know for a fact that the ones that rule got that way by murder and deceit. This is where all the money and resources go.
Why after slavery we have now become willing slaves? Is it still out of fear. Look at what happens to all the blacks that do not become a carbon copy of devils. Whites are all in outer space doing to the blacks there what they have already done to us. That is why NASA and other terrorist keep everything about it above top secret. They did the word of God the same way until they could change the truth about it then it was safe to present it to the public.
For blacks this is truly our last chance to be free from the superiority of white devils. We are the last ones left with any activity of the original genes. Soon no truth will have any chance at all to live.

These are proxy protesters.

Your life is so good you have time to be concerned with politics.

Many others are just trying to survive day to day.

You’d have said that to everyone active in the Montgomery bus boycott?

“Politics” is our entire lives, from the education you receive, to the jail you are thrown in, to literally the air you breathe.

I want my tax dollars spent on schools and hospitals, not terrorizing brown people across the globe.

Painting politics as something for elites is backwards. Taking control of our lives and the system that governs us is how we get from surviving to thriving.

You have the luxury of spending your time on an internet porn board talking politics instead of...I don't know, hunting through garbage cans for food or somewhere safe to shelter for the night.

Politics affects everyone yes. Everyone doesn't have the luxury of getting worked up about it. They have more pressing issues to deal with.

Kinda like attending a University lecture of intellectuals discussing homelessness.

What is this mind fuckery question

There are no limits we have the constitutional right

To physically remove muthafuckas...

That's why they keep us divided over stupid shit like ones complexion or culture..

So we won't unite and exercise that right

Like we should do any elected official that doesn't sign off of the banning of chem trails via geo engineering...

Beat their asses out of office for our children's sake...

Shout out to Tennessee becoming a true Leader and looking out for its People!!,

Shame on you new York allowing new yorkers to be sprayed like roaches.

Disgusting non existent leadership.

Need to be douched out..

So chea no limit on protesr.. especially since we been invaded by a foreign corporation US of A..whom

We been mindfucked into thinking it's our country

It's a war profiteering corporation.

They know it's a matter of time before a mass global protest takes place and won't stop..

Till we all get right..it's going to be a beautiful thing.
