That wasn't a protest, it was an attempt at a government takeover and overthrow. It was an attempted coup, with a whole list of people to install that were never voted into office. That's not a protest. Maybe protesting is part of that, but that's not a protest.
Questions of it being valid or not don't apply to things that are not protests.
