I beg to differ.
It all depends on who organises them, it seems.
I'm all in favour of peaceful protest.

The best way to educate the whingeing snowflakes is to subject them to the same disruption and damage that their 'heroes' do to other people.

In the old Soviet countries, the majority of people welcomed the removal of statues.
In our country, a minority of naive, brainwashed snowflakes welcomed the destruction. The majority of us disagreed with it.
I think it's all to do with democracy, and I do understand that some people don't agree with it.
You agree with democracy, don't you, Annie?
