They do, but, according to this news report at least, it appears that a sizable amount of protesters had infiltrated his rally and were planning on openly protesting inside the rally space / heckling from within it. I am not saying that the protesters don't have the right to be there...they certainly do. However, their tactics were tactless. Trying to shut down the voice of others is not the American way of getting your voice heard.I just saw this on another thread, and I wanted to link it here since I had brought into question the temperament of the crowd beforehand:
Donald Trump cancels UIC rally amid security concerns
It does appear that many Trump protesters were planning on bringing hostilities to his rally. As a liberal, and somebody who does not support Trump, I just wanted to say that I do not agree with these actions. I think that freedom of speech is one of the most important freedoms we are allowed in America, and that we should afford that freedom to everybody...not just those that we agree with.
These liberal Americans have failed today.
The protesters have freedom of assembly.
btw, Trump decided to call off the rally. We only have his unreliable word that there was too much of a threat of violence.
So while you concede that they had every right to do what they are doing you decide that they had no right to do what they are doing.
