Marching on the streets in protest is legal, and if they have permits to do so if the city requires it.
Intentionally blocking streets is not legal, not even "technically". These people are planning to intentionally block streets.
Quote:
Blocking traffic is an illegal, albeit effective method of protesting in the United States. When protesters block traffic, they are engaging in civil disobedience, a term coined by one of America's earliest freethinkers and intellectuals, Henry David Thoreau.
Even the ACLU says that blocking streets is illegal.

Can protesters march in the street?
Yes, but… many cities require permits if a march will block traffic; the rules for obtaining permits and enforcement of permit requirements vary by jurisdiction. If you march without a permit and block traffic while refusing an order from police to get out of the street, you could be arrested or detained. If you intentionally block traffic as an act of civil disobedience, you could face criminal charges.

i was being sarcastic....so many posters use extreme rightwing sites for topics i barely will click on them slightly bias right sites i will but not extreme
It would be terrible if the freedom rioters were invited in by storming the marble palace and started screaming to hang Clarence Thomas, hang Clarence Thomas, and then one of them charged the police line and got put down. Horrible for someone to be murdered in cold blood by the tyrannical state for just exercising their right to assembly. It most definitely would not be a case of play stupid games, win stupid prizes.
And yet it'd still be a picnic compared to the 2020 mostly peaceful summer of love.

Lib group plans to “blockade” the Supreme Court on Monday
Quote:
The group “Shut Down D.C.” is doing a “Shut Down SCOTUS” on Monday. They call it a protest and on the site promise to “blockade the streets around the Supreme Court to rise up for the transformative change that our communities need.”
And don’t forget the January 6 hearings were about … well …
People who spent this week hand-wringing about mobs interfering with the process of our government will mostly be fine with this. https://t.co/7jONEZgcOp

Saying that if the Supreme Court doesn't do what they want they will throw a tantrum.
A blockade goes beyond mere protesting.
