They should’ve kept the protests out front. Catching charges and ending the protest doesn’t help anyone but the consulate. I hope they get sealed records.
This is the one hand, on the other hand, we are now reading about this protest.
Not sure what the right answer is, but these are brave people protesting for peace regardless.
That’s true. It would eventually make the news with longevity or increased size. I’m all for protesting, I just worry about them having convictions.
Remember, even Dr. King was willing to go to jail to get basic civil rights for all Americans. And the result was both an amazing piece of writing and also a massive swaying of public opinion. I don't want anyone arrested, but it is not necessarily the worst thing that could happen.
