Reply to comment by dkran in ACLU asks supreme court to overturn Arkansas’ anti-boycott law against Israel | Arkansas by Im__Bruce_Wayne__AMA

If armed police show up to intimidate you into stopping, if not physically intervening to stop you, pretty much any time you have a protest for a non-right wing cause, do you actually have the right to assemble?

spins back time to Kent State

Edit: you’re totally right that it’s only been non right wing riots. UCLA, Kent state, Vietnam war in general, Occupy Wall Street, Rodney King, George Floyd…

Then we have Jan 6th.
