re: Does BLM pay for costs associated with their protests?

How do you propose they do that?

Pretty simple. You will need x amt of security hours at y amt. Plus rental of city owned property such as barricades. Or you supply your own property and people and give a financial guarantee thru money deposited, property put up or an insurance policy if damage occurs.

LOL

I understand the concept of how to do it, what I'm asking is how do you propose to get that money from people who either A. Don't have it or B. Aren't going to part with it.

well, you don't, and they can't lawfully protest.

Freedom of assembly

While their lives matter to black people. Bills, and paying for stuff do not.

I thought the right to peacefully assemble is granted,

DeRay was just released from the East Baton Rouge Parish Prison.

Out on bond.

So we should only allow people who can afford it to demonstrate? Is it not obvious how dangerous a road that is? And how contrary it runs to the founding principals of the country? Peaceful assembly is protected by the First Amendment. How many in this thread would have no problem charging people for protests but would cry foul at any first threat to the 2nd Amendment? It has nothing to do with how you feel about BLM or any other group that chooses to gather.

So as soon as a group fails to peacefully protest, can we restrict that group from a right, much like we do other freedoms?
