Intimidate The Protest Movement

This just in Donald J Trump is our president there is no amount of protesting that is going to change that peaceful or other wise. We the people of the United States of America voted him in. If you did not vote for him and do not believe him to be your President

If unlawful acts are occurring by another group trying to disrupt the peaceful assembly, I believe that the police would have no choice in the matter of disbanding both groups in order to restore the general order and provide the safety of the general public. There would not be a way of knowing who were the original peaceable protestors and the opposing group. If police allowed for the assembly to continue by only arresting the individuals committing unlawful acts there is the possibility that the opposing group would hide in the crowd until police are not in the area to observe and then commit those unlawful acts to avoid arrest.

Civil disobedience is the refusal to conform to certain laws as a form of harmless political protest, while being aware of the consequences that could result because of it. Peaceful resistance to laws positively impacts a free society because actions are taken due to people letting their voice be heard. While some may argue that the main reasons of this are the five basic rights mentioned in the first amendment (freedom of speech, religion, press, assembly, and petition), this issue goes far beyond that. Without civil disobedience, many historical events might have not played such an important role as they did to the point that they changed America in numerous ways; not to mention the courageous people who still take part in protests today to claim the rights they should have.

African-Americans have been oppressed since their arrival in America in 1619. Due to their differences in physical characteristics, Whites considered them an inferior race and therefore treated them as property, disregarding their human rights. After many years of exploitation and abuse, in 1791, slaves on the small island of Hispaniola revolted against French rule and successfully gained their freedom in 1804. It gave hope to African American slaves who, in turn, decided to stand against their masters and gain their freedom. Every one of those rebellions was extremely violent. They were so passionate about the cause and have been oppressed for so long that they targeted

Protest in the Austin area is very intense right now. Many students from schools in East Austin, have gone to protest in name of all immigrants. To prove their point, that they believe that immigrants have a great impact in the United states. Students from Del Valle High School, LBJ High school, Manor High School and a few other school’s walked out of their school and walked down to city hall to protest. And they did it , to prove that they too have a voice and a choice in the things that happen in society in the future. Immigrants,and Citizens from all over the U.S have united together to prove what “ a day without immigrants” looks like. All over the nation they have united and protested “USA, No racism, No KKK, No trump”. This includes citizens whose parents are immigrants. Parents who brought their children to this Country for a better future are all of a sudden being discriminated and treated poorly. And it has brought together citizens that support the hard wolk of immigrants and many have been protesting. On february, 16, 2017 a lot of jobs went on strike to

Now is the time the nation needs to come together, but the people are separated. People are too busy arguing over the Republican and Democratic parties and race. Kneeling for the national anthem because they want to make a statement that not all lives matter, but black lives matter and their president are, “not their president”, is disrespectful to the people who fought and who died and their family. The NFL football players should not have the right to protest during their job, they should protest on their own time.

We live in a society where change in present. More and more people are expressing their views, even if it is at the cost of their own dignity. Even more recently so, Donald Trump has been elected into office, and there have been both peaceful and not so peaceful protest. But in my own honest opinion, I think peaceful protests are in vein and do not do anything. Therefore, peaceful protests are negative towards a free society.

Analyse the representations (1,2 and 3E) and choose the one which you think is the best representations of how effective peaceful protest was in securing civil rights in the USA

Taking a stand against a regime is a strenuous task. Jen showed bravery and fought for what she believed in. Even though the outcome was unexpected she still fought for not only her rights, but for all of the other shadow children's rights also. Rosa Parks, Susan B. Anthony, and MLK Jr. They all used nonviolent protests to present an issue. With MLK Jr. his outcome was just like Jen’s. They both knew that getting shot was a possibility yet they still fought for their beliefs. Some people might say that you are risking your life for an achievement that can take years but once you do it once you can never take it back. It starts a movement that can’t be

In recent years, the issue of peaceful and violent protests has arisen in the United States of America, and from these protests, a question has arisen: how do these peaceful protest affect our free society? The answer to this controversial question lies in the meaning of peaceful protest and application of this definition. Civil disobedience, or a peaceful protest, is the orderly and nonviolent purposeful violation of laws in order to change a law or governing system. This practice has been used to change the opinion of the citizens or the government. The repeated use of civil disobedience has led to our society’s improvement as a whole and has impacted the USA positively; these impacts are seen in the acts of the 1968 Olympic Medalists, Tommie

Sometimes you think you are bettering the world, when in reality, you are making it worse. Due to the recent inauguration, protests and marches have been appearing in the main cities of the U.S., as well as multiple foreign countries. These so called “peaceful” protests have become extremely violent and destructive, causing hundreds of arrests and injuries to the Republicans standing up for their President. Although the government’s decisions will not be affected by these protests, they continue to exaggerate their First Amendment and destroy privately owned property. The political protests regarding Trump’s recent inauguration are ineffective and must be controlled.

Protesting has always been involved in the history of America since the founding of this country. America was founded on a protest based solely on the unfair and unjust laws and taxes that Britain forced onto the colonists in the 1700's. However, not all protests end up being peaceful. There are peaceful protests, and there are forceful protests. In my opinion, peaceful protests have a more positive influences a free society. If there are peaceful protest being displayed on news channels or social media, there is a higher chance of that peaceful protest influencing the society in positive ways. More people are going to react to peaceful protesting in positive ways rather than responding by getting hateful and angry. Of course, not everyone reacts positively towards protesting; there

I agree with the idea that there were several influential reasons that contributed to the development of the sit-ins and the nonviolent movement for the civil rights. At the same time, I also highly evaluate the role that the students have played in the process of the establishment of the new social approach. The four courageous students managed to show to the community that peaceful actions can bring results, and “After resisting for five months, Woolworth’s in July agreed to serve black customers at its lunch counters” (Foner, GML, p. 769). Having shown a successful example of the application of non-violent means of resistance, the students attracted also the attention of their colleagues, and the movement spread to other colleges of the

Every day we hear of something new happening around the world, from silent protests to violent outcries for help; however, many of us believe we are too powerless to truly do anything about it, but that is not always the case. From 1955 to 1965, Martin Luther King Jr., a simple Baptist Minister, was arrested 30 times for nonviolent protests against racial segregation. King often violated segregation laws because he felt that they defied a higher set of laws; during a protest in Birmingham, Alabama, King was arrested and sent to jail-where he wrote a letter addressing his willingness to break the law time after time. In King's letter: 'A letter from a Birmingham Jail' King explains “… that an individual who breaks a law that conscience tells

Have you ever wondered if we digressed or progressed as a society? Or when protests became full blown riots? My paper will be talking about how we digressed and those issue’s.A few points i will be using is about police violence,the Black Lives Matter movement,and Violence in protests.Changing the way we react has been changed very slovenly like.
