I was at my local protest. I'd guess there were around 3,000-5,000 people and it was literally just a bunch of hippies chanting. The protest was so lawful that people were even obeying walk signals at the intersection where it occurred.

Our governor had a state of emergency in place for this.

So peaceful that when the permit said 1pm, people started walking back to where they were supposed to go. The only scuffle was caused by a raised-truck tRump supporter and they were booed to all hell before driving away like the coward they are.

The fact that you need a permit is already a violation of the right of assembly IMHO.
