Yes, dear...thanks to protestors many people in this country are able to enjoy the SAME freedoms as other people within this country (ever heard of civil rights movement).
Not suprised that went right by you.
And furthermore, there are and continue to be PEACEFUL protest throughout this country. Apparently, the actions of SOME in NYC all of a sudden represents EVERY protester.
