peaceful protest yes, to obstruct roadways and block people from their evryday life no. your right to protest ends when it obstructs others right to free movement.
The 86-year-old woman had joined with three other women in locking their arms in front of the police van, blocking it from leaving. After officers unlinked the women’s arms, one pushed her to the ground. Officers then pepper-sprayed Baker in the face. “Here’s this woman on the ground, and they’re so busy pepper spraying those who were helping her, they never help her up,” Baker said. “Do we look violent to you?” The 86-year-old woman, who has not been identified by authorities, was not injured, and was able to get back up on her own. Baker, however, was still recovering from the pain in her eyes three days later.

I am getting tired of people being irritated that roadways were blocked when they weren't even on that road and probably never will be.
