Though there may be casualties along the way (such as a great deal on parking in downtown Chicago), ultimately people in America have been guaranteed the right to peacefully assemble to protest that with which they disagree. If the founding fathers had not believed that the ability to peacefully resist is vital to the functioning of a society, they would not have included it in the very first change to the Constitution. If somewhere along the line the judges of the Supreme Court had decided that no, we no longer need this right, or that this right is hurting society, they would have changed the Constitution to reflect that. No, we as Americans are guaranteed these basic rights for a reason. We are living in a free society, and a free society's best tool for expressing its opinion of laws is to peacefully resist
