The Importance Of Peaceful Protests In Donald Trump's Campaign

Protests are a way that many citizens have historically exercised their right to freedom of speech and as to voice their opinions on current matters in the U.S. as well as other nations. Protests help the uninformed get informed on specific issues, and try to persuade fellow citizens. What were some of the effective aspects of the protests that were portrayed in “The Matrix”, “Battle in Seattle” as well as those in “The Letter from Birmingham Jail”? What were the downfalls? An effective protest is one where an advocated idea gets across to the intended audience. Peaceful protests tend to have a better outcome than those that lead to violence.

Since the beginning of american history there have been peaceful and non peaceful protests. These protests have had valuable effects on American society such as Martin Luther King Jr and Rosa Parks have impacted society greatly and for the better. In my opinion peaceful protests still have negative effects though they are immensely more appropriate than non peaceful protests because peaceful protests often turn violent because people don't know how to act for example Trump Protests.

Peacefully protesting to show support of a cause is not harmful to society. In the past, it has been a technique simply to show you feel that your situation, a law or a proposition is not justified, in your eyes. Protesting in that way does not damage society, however protests too often escalate to anger and violence, diminishing the validity of the cause being demonstrated.

In the presidential campaigns, candidates have been slandering each other and conflicting ideas. This has created a strong rivalry between the two main political parties. Some Democrats hate the Republican party and vice versa. Donald Trump has used a plethora of derogatory language to describe his opponents and any group he does not like (such as immigrants and Mexicans). The other candidates have done the same thing to each other, though arguably to a lesser degree.

These events of the election lead me to ask Alejandra and Fernando about the anti-protest that have been bursting out all over the country. I asked Alejandra and Fernando how they feel about them and if they had participated in an any of the protest. (Fernando) – “Well right after they announced the winner a lot of people at UCLA were not happy so they started a protest against Donald Trump. It was around 11:50 pm when the protest happened. I would have joined but I had a long day from work and school and I had to wake up early the next day. Is not that I didn 't care and I didn 't want my voice to be heard I was just not emotionally ready I literally started crying. Although I wasn 't there physically I was there in spirit because it was great to have a community back you up. I could hear the chants of "f*** Donald Trump," "We want equality, not supremacy," and "we hate Trump" then after that they quickly faded away. I heard from friends that the protest was around 600 students and it ended up really late like around 3 in the morning. Although I was not present my protest is getting my education and to achieve my goals. As well as to empower others and to show them that anyone can achieve anything if you believe in yourself. As well as to show my community and people of color that they belong at UCLA”.

Donald Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign has come at a time after having a president serve for two terms. Americans are eager for change. Donald Trump promises to be the change to fix the nation’s concerns about foreign affairs, and immigration

There is much dissention and controversy surrounding the political opponents and the upcoming presidential election that will occur in November 2016. Many candidates, both Democrat and Republican, along with their supporters, are setting precedence with their abusive and abrasive behavior. In many instances they are disrespectful, dishonest, uncooperative, and un-American in their pursuit of the highest political office in our country. The most aggressive and unprofessional candidate of all is Donald Trump. When I’m president, I’m a different person. I can do anything,” he said. “I can be the most politically correct person you’ve ever seen.” In my opinion, this man does not belong in the white house and should not become the president of anything.

In the beginning of the debate, both Trump and Clinton had a fierce attitude. The candidates had brought up many past events. They debated against each other`s plans to create a better country. One of the main

Violently protesting the presidential election does bring notice to the protesters, but not at all in a positive way. Politicly speaking, there are many effective ways of sharing opinions and spreading your ideas peacefully. Citizens that choose to violently protest are not taken seriously and because instead of making changes they are breaking laws and causing serious problems in major cities across the country. Protesters need to understand how our government functions on a local, state, and federal level. The president doesn't hold some kind of crown in our country. If our president elect for this following January is as bad as protesters claim, he will be removed from office immediately so they have nothing to worry about. Protesting in these current ways make these individuals appear uneducated and negatively radical to the eyes of the public.

large corporations and top investors prioritize profit over anyone or anything. Donald Trump being one of those investors will not care to stop on the standing rock siox's beliefs or traditions. This is not a new issue; since the 19th century, the Indians have fought wars related to standing rock. This peaceful protest against standing rock continues and police brutality

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

The America I believe in,well as we all know America is not perfect. There is rioting in the streets,people not standing for the national anthem, and people that are plenty capable of working sitting on their butts collecting welfare checks. We need to go back to the values our country was founded on.

I am inspired by rebellion, not because I like seeing people cause trouble, but because I like seeing people having enough courage to strike against injustice. Each time someone rebels, they are sending a bit of energy that can turn into a vast majority of protests, and that is when we will be able to break down mountains of oppression and discrimination. In a world full of capitalism and unfairness, it is up to us, students especially, to fight against those causing harm to others and make the world a more humane place to live in. I personally have been to quite a few protests, although they can be a bit hopeless, the point of them is to fight for what you believe in, and I still up to this day I truly believe Donald Trump should still not

That way, intimidate the protesters from going to the illegal activities. But this option also has its downsides, because a lot of police officers could agitate the protesters, which can result in resistance towards the officers of the law, and when one protester is being attacked, the other protesters will join the fight and it could turn into a bloodbath after

Unless you have been living under a rock for the past two years, the United States of America has an election coming up on the eighth of November. This campaign has gotten ugly. There has been fighting, rioting, accusations of improper conduct, and a whole heap of other things between the two political parties. Some people would argue that our country is divided more now than ever in history. On the Democratic side, you have Senator Hillary Clinton. She has the motivation of becoming America’s first female president. Over on the Republican side, you have Donald Trump, a billionaire, real-estate mogul, businessman. These two candidates have two very different backgrounds. Hillary Clinton has been in the political arena since 1976. She was elected to the U.S. Senate in 2001 and was appointed as the U.S. Secretary of State in 2009. Donald Trump, on the other hand, has never held any kind of political office. He got into real-estate in 1971 and has since then made the Trump name synonymous with real-estate development. With their backgrounds being as different as they are, their personalities are just as different.
