(and remember ... "hundreds" and "dozens")
And no, you cannot prosecute every person at a protest if one person or some people at the protest committed a crime. By that incredibly dumb logic, every Charlottesville Nazi should have been charged with murder.
But to be clear, if there's evidence a protester assaulted anyone, that person should be arrested, charged and prosecuted. If there's evidence that crime was motivated by hate, that person should be charged with a hate crime.
The legal definition of assault?
Assault refers to the wrong act of causing someone to reasonably fear imminent harm.
Every chant, "from the river to the sea," and calls for intifada are an assault. Same as calls for lynchings on campus are assaults.
The legal definition of battery
is the act of intentionally touching another person, or applying force to them, in a harmful or offensive way, without their consent.
Every student who has been physically blocked from entering a campus, that has a right to be on tath campus, has been battered.

So, let me be clear. Peaceful protest in America — violent protest is not protected; peaceful protest is. It’s against the law when violence occurs.
Destroying property is not a peaceful protest. It’s against the law.
Vandalism, trespassing, breaking windows, shutting down campuses, forcing the cancellation of classes and graduations — none of this is a peaceful protest.
Threatening people, intimidating people, instilling fear in people is not peaceful protest. It’s against the law.
