Participating in a protest or public assembly is a fundamental right in a democratic society – it’s how voices are heard and change is demanded. However, exercising this right can sometimes lead to tense interactions with law enforcement, and without proper knowledge, you might inadvertently put yourself at risk of arrest or legal complications. You want to make your voice heard, but you also need to stay safe and within legal boundaries.
The right to free speech and peaceful assembly is a cornerstone of liberty. Yet, navigating protests can be challenging. You might feel uncertain about what you can legally do, what police are permitted to do, and how to protect yourself if things escalate. Don’t let this uncertainty silence your message or put your freedom at risk.
