26. People protest all the time in the US, have been for years, mostly without violence
Statistics wise - union protests, mom's protesting school board decisions, etc and so on.

Most people don't expect violence at such thing, at worse they expect they could get arrested.

hell, my mom protested at York Town middle/high school when I was a kid and I was with her. Nothing major happened.

In CA I saw many protests by unions (and my X father-in-law was a union vp and went to many protests) at grocery stores - no incidents.
