Hence the difference, that most sane people understand, between peaceful protest and committing violent acts.
At what point is volume considered violent?
I’m thinking of the Asian lady who ruins Toomer’s Corner in Auburn every day with her ridiculous screaming at anyone walking by.

Stupid fricking law. As are all of them, no matter the state/locality.
Okay, so your disagreement is that the laws are ill advised, not that they are unconstitutional? That’ would be a matter of opinion. That it is unconstitutional would be wrong as a matter of fact. That’s what I thought you meant.
As to your opinion, do you really believe that the public should not be able to control someone standing in a public place and yelling obscenities?

That’s weird… Trump just pardoned a whole bunch of people who did the exact opposite
That's weird... those people were actually protesting government at the government's place of business. Weirder still was how they were let in and so many were just waltzing through within the roped barriers.
I guess they oughta have been in the streets blocking traffic and impeding, well, everyone and everything.
Or at a Hilton harassing their own neighbors and visitors.

But that pesky 1A, though.
Screaming obscenities would amount to disturbing the peace which, as far as I know, is a misdemeanor in most jurisdictions, and therefore essentially against the law. Enforcing it is not tantamount to infringing upon anyone's 1A rights.

The fact that half the country became convinced overnight that a person could use their car to block police activity without experiencing repercussions should make us all stop and think.
Are there any limits to how stupid TDS makes people?

This is obviously based on the context.
If you scream obscenities in a cops face in a chaotic environment as part of a group that is actively inhibiting enforcement of the law, that’s not necessarily a valid use of the 1st Amendment.

Fair.
Difference is when conservatives want to exercise their 1st amendment... they don't do it by harassing their neighbors.

Nothing about blowing rape whistles, dog cussing with shameful obscenities and aggressively interfering with law enforcement is congruent with “peaceful”.
It might possibly be “nonviolent” but it is hardly “peaceful”.

This is something that definitely needs to be clearly outlined
Are we arresting bad actors?

There absolutely are laws and ordinances in this country regarding obscenities. That is not a protected speech.

The asshats in MN are the ones undermining the Bill of Rights
There IS no constitutional right to aggressively affront OTHER PEOPLE because YOU are not happy. Those other people have rights too. THEY have the right to go about their business without having to be inconvenienced by idiots.
What they are doing should not be allowed - by any common understanding of how to maintain a peaceful society.

I wish.
Clarifying the clause of the 1A that speaks to peaceable assembly would help.
Having an action that if done by ONE is illegal, but becomes legal once done by a dozen on the basis of "assembly", is problematic and needs clear definition.

Isn’t it funny that the party of “tolerance and empathy” actually gives exactly zero fricks about anyone but themselves. They are toddlers having a temper tantrum.

This sentiment makes no sense…so no one is harassed(whatever that means) by a conservative protest??… what would be the point of said protest???

The definitions and laws exist.
Enforce them.
Or don’t I guess.

Biden had one, thought it was a vibrator and has suffered since. It was a gift from Corn Pop.

Yes. Like misdemeanor disorderly conduct and misdemeanor public nuisance.
