Peacably implies not on a highway and not shining lasers this way and that.
- oldgradstudent 3y agoYes, but otherwise, there is no permission required for a peaceful assembly.
- badrequest 3y agoWhat is unpeaceable about gathering on a highway?
- FredPret 3y ago- blocking the only entry/exit point for other people who have places to go. Some of these are emergencies. What if you block an ambulance and indirectly kill the patient? - creating a risk someone will hit you and be injured/killed/traumatized or even start a pile-up
- 93po 3y agoPotentials do not equal violence. In Seattle the George Floyd protests let emergency vehicles and even city busses through frequently
- smsm42 3y agoIt violates the rights of other people to free movement and causes them economic damages. It may also lead to catastrophic consequences if emergency vehicles are blocked (happened many times) and since the highway is a common property, regulated by the laws of the jurisdiction owning it, assembling there contrary to these laws is also a violation of property rights. If I set up a "protest" tent in the middle of your driveway, not letting you exit the house, would you say it's a constitutionally protected activity or would you call the police on me, claiming property rights and trespassing violation?
