I’m not a usaian, and I don’t really care who did this or why but:
“All Americans have the right to peaceful protest, but ugly attacks like this have no place in our democracy,”
Isn’t this a peaceful prostest (factoring in here that the speaker almost certainly does not consider the insects harmed worthy of dignity and respect)? Obnoxious and weird sure but peaceful.
Fair, I mean similar stuff happens in aus but we’re literally a prison colony of uptight dibber dobbers without even town squares lest uprising be facilitated. I thought you were calibrated the other way, like firing rounds up into the air is peaceful and civic jubilation :p
Guess power is the same everywhere. I do wish the media parroted this stuff less. Normalising disruption = violence is how the remnants of our liberties die.

Here in the US anything that results in even the mildest inconvenience or loss of face among the ruling class is violent by definition.

Firing rounds into the sky is peaceful civic jubilation, knocking over a trash can near a protest is violence
