Your right to protest is ABSOLUTE and any attempts by the gov't to bypass or circumvent your right to protest is UNCONSTITUTIONAL
So no the police or the gov't have no right to break up any protest against them. If the gov't wants to break up any protest all they need to do is ADDRESS the protestors
Any attempt to use gov't police force to disband a protest is a criminal act by the gov't, a gov't who refuse to listen to its people by using its thugs to breakup any dissent is a crime .. This is exactly why the Founding Fathers want its people to be armed and not the gov't itself
By the way, why have my comments been "non-sense"? Just because someone doesn't agree with you and your argument, it doesn't mean that their argument isn't compelling. You should really open up your mind and allow to see both sides of the debate. It'll allow you to understand the topic even more.
Yea I'm insulting people......
this is why I don't bother responding to your nonsense... I only humor you once in a while
But, you state that their right to protest was "ABSOLUTE". So, how should the police deal with protesters who have camped out for days, weeks, or months on private or public property and refuse to leave?
Are you implying that the government should give into their demands so they'll leave? What if the protesters demanded that segregation be enacted again?
Do you wish the gov't would just come down and beat and kill them all, maybe even torture them a bit for fun.. And then send them to re-education camps
Don't mistake my support for the RIGHT TO PROTEST to my support of OWS or Occupy Movement..
Again it proves my point that you don't care much about freedom or rights, and would gladly see people abused and taken out when you DO NOT LIKE THE MESSAGE..
Both events the police asked them to leave... and well we all know how standing your ground turned out for both.. But keep thinking its ok to be pepper sprayed at point blank range...
HA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Keep hiding behind that... ok
Just admit it, you feel that all LAWBREAKERS deserve a tough form of justice and that MLK and his band of marchers were no different in the eyes of the LAW.. and they all got what they deserved to disobey POLICE ORDERS and THE LAW

Where did I say "give into" their demands... I said address their demands
Its one thing to let people voice their demands and meet their voice with a fair debate, its another thing to say fark off or we will send our gov't thugs to do it for us
Somehow that concept seem alien to you in a country where people have the right to petition their gov't or those in power

Thus far, I think I've been very fair and open minded with my comments to you. Yet, you think I am going against you. I have a very strong suspicion that you're either still in high school or only a year or two in college.

Likewise, the government can't stop its citizens from protesting. However, if you do it on private property or block traffic, they can cite you and kick out.
Ryu-bom has the belief that as long as you're exercising your Constitutional right to protest, it absolves you from any other laws you may be breaking.
My only concern would be whether the students would openly give up their ID for the cops to cite them. Do you think they would do that?
Again though, this doesn't mean that I agree with the cops being needed in the first place.

Hey wait,
Hey wait,
pig might be on the menu as well.

Even if they are being a public nuisance, and infringing on other peoples rights?

Because you are so spun up with posting MKL pictures, etc...instead...brilliant way to gain a shred of credibility for your "arguments"... which are actually just argumentative...yet totally lacking in substance...Nice move!!!
