Donald Trump Protestors Party Just Came To A Screeching Halt... Its All Over In the weeks since Donald Trump was officially announced our nations president-elect, Hillary Clinton supporters have been launching violent protests in major cities throughout the country. Now, it appears they could finally be facing consequences for their actions. Doug Ericksen, the Republican state senator from Washington, has put forward a proposal to make it illegal to participate in protests that block transportation, damage property, or put public safety at risk. Participating in what he calls economic terrorism would be a felony and the law would also apply to anyone who funds or organizes a protest. The last time I check, protesting was a First Amendment right related to free speech, Seattles mayor, Ed Murray, commented on the matter. Still, Ericksen insists his proposal has no impact on our rightspeople will still have the right to peaceably assemble. Nothing in the Preventing Economic Terrorism Act in any way impacts a persons right to protest peacefully, he commented, adding that the bill recognizes the financial costs to small business and big ones alike are significant, especially when the protests turn violent. What do you think of Ericksens proposal? Should violent rioters be held accountable for their crimes?
