    Every protest starts peacefully.

    It is when those aren’t heard that they become violent.

    Look at the BLM protests for example. If people didn’t try to dismiss a football player taking a knee during the US anthem by calling him a traitor, and actually did something about the police brutalities, the other protests wouldn’t have been necessary.
