Well, actors and actresses get paid to protest daily. They are very good at subliminally pushing immorality and communism.

It generally is prohibited, The problem we have is the law is enforced unequally.
Until drastic bold changes are made in the entire justice system nothing will change.

No
But, if the protest goes stops traffic of public roads, then the arrest, crime, and punishment should be instant.

No, but I do think you should have the right to disrupt them.

How do you know that the big protests are being "paid for"???? The one thing I don't get about conservatives in particular that while they supposedly like freedom of speech, they really hate to see it play out en masse and will say all types of things like "Communist Agitators" back in the the Vietnam days to NGO's today.
Just say you have better things to do with your time.

It is, there are laws that bar it. Yet, there are a couple of problems here.
1. Law enforcement generally refuses to do anything about it as long as the protest remains "peaceful". They don't want to "rock the boat" and risk making the matter worse, putting officers in direct conflict.
2. In reality, most people are supportive of such protester actions if they agree with the cause. It has been seen here when counter protesters have shut down roads or when truckers, farmers, what have you start a protest that they agree with. I got downvoted to hell for saying that the Irish farmers needed to get the hell out of the road and stop inconveniencing people for the sake of their cause.
Regardless of "Who, What, When, Where , and How" I will always say, "Stay out of the road, assholes!".

Take random Wednesday from 10am-4pm in a random city and hundreds of working age individuals are out marching and demonstrating for a myriad of causes. Are they taking vacation time off from their job?
Hell, it's a Saturday in March and they are beating the streets demonstrating. Do they seriously have nothing better to do during the height of college sports during March Madness?
These loons are getting paid.

My biggest problem is that when a "protest" involves blocking public streets, destroying property, interfering with law enforcement activities, etc. it is no longer a protest.
Those actions are already illegal and are not protected. They fall into the category of "civil disobedience" and often lead to arrest. Historically people who engage in civil disobedience are volunteering to be arrested, so they have no ground to complain if that is what happens.

I think these paid for protest need to have consequences for the person paying for the violence towards anyone.

Lol...giving up constitutional rights is insane.
I would rather our rights be restored / recognized: right of freedom to assembly / 2nd A / etc.

If your employer organizes a bus to take you and other employees to the capital to either protest or sit in on hearings that directly impact your job, do you consider that being paid to protest?
A company that I previously worked for did that and did not require anyone to use PTO.

what these idiots are doing isn't protected by the first amendment it's being allowed to happen by local governments who need to immediately lose all federal funding
Posted on 5/28/26 at 1:46 pm to bbvdd
No, that's not a good solution. Go after the funding and dry that up and the protesters will go away. Taking away a right is not the way forward.
Posted on 5/28/26 at 1:55 pm to bbvdd
No but it should be law that it has to be publicly announced that a protest is being paid and organized and that the person or people funding it are responsible for damages if it gets non peaceful

Paid protestors should be required to have some type of business license in
order to operate and be a member of the Actor's Guild.
If caught without a license then 90 days in the hole.

I would like to see additional changes to the 1st amendment to prioritize Christianity and acknowledge Jesus Christ as King of kings and Lord of lords.

Here's the King's foot, boy. Get to licking it.
