It happens.
The right to protest is protected by the U.S. Constitution.
If you endanger others while protesting, you can be arrested. A protest that blocks vehicular or pedestrian traffic is illegal without a permit. You do not have the right to block a building entrance or physically harass people.
There are legal and peaceful protests all over the country everyday. It’s not hard to stay within the law.
