Protests that are suppressed will evolve into riots that will bring change.

Or division. The whole reason the right does this is they want violence, because once the violence starts there is no other outcome but a cycle of violence until one side dominates. A civil war makes the effects even worse, we're still suffering the effects of the civil war to this day.
Fascist ideology thrives in violence and withers under the rule of democratic law, which is why they push to undermine our democratic institutions and rights.

they need to pass this quick before we learn how to protest from the french.
im convinced the unites states slept through protest class.

To be fair our first protests were pretty motherfucking effective.
Maybe we should just go back to protesting like that

That's because they were led by the rich landowners.

Rage and clickbait.
This is essentially a civil case turned into something bigger because the person who got hit with a rock was a cop.
Had it just been another protester, there would be no call to undermine the 1st amendment.
And if SCOTUS goes that route, they will lose a lot of support from their politicians.
I mean of course since current SCOTUS is mentally deranged and highly partisan, they may of course still do it.
And I have a protest bag already packed and waiting if they do.
Remember the important supplies: Bottled water, masks and rags, first aid kit, baking soda to dilute to treat pepper spray
Leave your phone and IDs at home
This isn't hyperbole, you have SEEN what SCOTUS is doing and it is time to rattle their rafters with a unified voice.
Leave your personal device and IDs at home
If you're able, bring a burner to record and distribute evidence of civil rights infractions - be safe and don't be obvious about recording.
Good fucking point. Next time I'm out I'm getting a prepaid burner to stick in the bag.
Thanks for the advice.
