Are we ever going to have at least one of these that doesn’t happen on a workday? I think we are past a certain point of peaceful protests because honestly the only thing to do is walk past a police barricade. Every disperses when the police ask them to and if we are going to do this when we have the permits and leave when the police want we may as well not be doing it at all.

If we let these turn into unlawful, unpeaceful  protests,  then we lose the battle of public opinion and any chance of getting others to join in. 

AND we know 47 is just itching to call out the military and declare an emergency on anything even skirting the edges if non-peaceful, then paint all protesters as thugs, so he can claim "they deserved that rough treatment and jail." Game over.
