There are some laws restricting how invasive they can be, but to allow people to protest and have freedom of speech we have to allow the worst of it, sadlyā¦
āFreedom of speech.ā Ā Thatās what they call it, but itās literally just hate speech. Ā They show up to make people feel bad. Ā Theyāre HARRASSING PEOPLE. OPENLY. ON THE STREETS. Ā Had I gone in for an abortion or whatever and these people stood there yelling at me that I was a horrible person, Iād have physically attacked them and explained to the cops that they were provoking me. Ā Iām sure it wouldnāt have worked, but god, itād have felt good.

In America itās the first amendment - I may not agree with what you say but will defend to the death your right to say it etc etc
Of course, in a face-to-face situation you should be allowed to say whatever shitty thing you want, but showing up in bunches to yell hateful things at people? Ā Surely the first amendment should differentiate between the two? Ā Or at least they should be arrested for disturbing the peace?
