And that's exactly how it should be done, in a respectful, peaceful manor without violence. It's sad that 99% of people do protest in a peaceful way, whereas the 1% ruins it for them with their violent actions which inevitably causes them to lose their whole point of issue that they're protesting, as the focus is now turned to their actions.
