I said they were being used as pawns for a bigger agenda.
And you would be wrong, the people are pissed. There isn't thousands of people protesting because of some agenda by some other group.
As I've noted, this exact same argument was used against the Tea Party. It was the agenda of the Koch Brothers or something similar. The GOP doesn't currently own so many seats because the Koch Brothers or anyone else having an agenda.

That is NOT demonizing them.
This same Marxist group organized the Walmart walkouts, the McDonald's walkouts, the Amnesty protests, etc.
They are the same group that now titled these protests as the "War Against Black America".
It's not about going after bad cops. It's them using this to their advantage.
There weren't any Wal Mart or McD's walk outs. The employee's did not walk out. Those groups could not get people behind those protests and they have mostly fizzled. People are upset with the police being held to a different standard than they are and the asinine laws that would cause a person to get arrested for selling single cigarette's on a street corner.

You're not convinced so go do a little digging yourself.
These radical activists prey on emotions and use them for THEIR advantage.
Go listen to the chants of the protesters. They don't want reform..they want dead cops.
The location of the rally delayed me, Vector1, and though an inconvenience, I have no issue with any protest inconveniencing anyone.
That is not what I asked you. I asked if you knew whether it was a legal rally(i.e. permits, paid police/traffic control, etc.) or was it intended to disrupt commerce/traffic by purposely blocking traffic?
To me that makes a huge difference, regardless of the political side of the fence the people attending are on. If I am inconvenienced by the presidents motorcade or a rally that is legal I also have no problem. However if a bunch of ignorant fools decide they are going to promote a cause based on a false narrative and stop traffic or commerce by intentionally blocking roads or shopping malls, that is a different story.

People do not need to get the permission of those they are going to protest to protest.

You do realize that sometimes a permit IS necessary, right?
No it isn't. Sometimes the government claims it is necessary but it isn't. For it to be necessary gives the government the ability to say no and they can not do that.

Far left? I support a balanced budget. I am pro-life. My tentative support for president in 2016 is Rand Paul but I'm still leaving that open based upon some of his more recent statements. I support people's 2nd amendment rights.

You're an anarchist.
Gotcha.
