This is a protest that needs to be address. The Native Americans are protesting against an corporation that is trying to steal their water supply without any regard of the Indians that depend on it. During the protest, non-violent protesters were attacked by dogs and pepper sprayed without waning.

The right to protest has been a major point of freedom for the US. It's a fundamental right written in the constitution. Now lawmakers are trying to take away that freedom by making it illegal to protest.

The real problem is the groups that are vandalizing and rioting, and then claiming it is their right. Because of these people, these states are trying to do something that should never even be a thought. Basic human rights shall never be taken by Americans as long as we don't allow it. @albertskarsten you are absolutely right " We the people hold the power"

The right to peaceful protest should never be taken from the American people. I do not condone the violence and rioting that occurs, and laws pertaining to that are pertinent, but not peaceful protest. So many things have been accomplished because of these types of protests in our history. As a woman I would not be participating in this class if it weren't for the people brave enough to protest for equality. It is a travesty that government officials, who should know and understand the rights given to the us in the Constitution, would bring about legislation to override said rights.

This article is about peaceful and non-peaceful protests. In recent years, it seems like the most common protests that make the news have turned into riots. This article explores the morality and ideals between the two forms of protest.

It seems that mostly what's on the news are the violent protest. Those are the only protest that get reported. I do believe you can have a peaceful protest and still be heard rather than letting it come down to violence. With all the recent violent protesting going on it makes a person think about where did everyone's dignity and respect for one another really go.

Personally, I can see why nonviolent protests can be seen as a method that really doesn't get the message out, but at the same time it's a much more mature, respectful, and Constitutional way to make a statement. As listed in the article, many great things have been accomplished through a peaceful stand.

This website is about Arizona teachers protesting for more funding for their school districts. People who have participated in this protest wear red and walk the streets. Teachers refuse to go to class until they have got their point across.

I was on my mission when this protest occurred, but I remember hearing about it. I think it's important for people to be paid what they deserve.

It really is sad that it took such a huge movement of teachers risking their jobs to get the point that schools need more funding across. You would think that teachers would be paid fairly since they impact a students future the most.

Is burning or desecrating the American flag a right protected by the First Amendment? Or should a new constitutional amendment outlaw both acts? The issue of desecrating the flag goes back in the courts almost 100 years. Finally in 1989, the Supreme Court decided in Texas v.

I do not think that burning the American flag is really effective as it only makes others mad. I think that people should protest if they are upset about something or believe something is unfair. I do not think that people should protest violently/aggressively, though. A lot of people protest peacefully, but some do protest violently- which only puts a harsh look on the whole situation.

I understand that there is a lot wrong with this country and people have a right to be upset with our government and how the country is right now. I feel that the flag symbolizes much more than just our country. I feel like it stands for every man and woman fighting for this country in the military. The flag symbolizes the military people that have died for us. I feel like buring the flag is complete disrespect to those that have died for our country and their families. There are so many ways to protest your beliefs about the country, there is no need to burn the flag that I feel represents the honor of those that have died for our country.
