There are all sorts of protests done formally or not, on a business level or not, on a personal level or not, on a political level or not, in which, those that are protesting haven't really developed fully what they are protesting about. That is to say, they are protesting about something, they are upset about something, but that certain something that they are protesting about, they haven't really considered it all the way through, taking especially into consideration more than one perspective and what it really is that they ultimately want from such a protest, if they are successful in it.
If we take a careful look at our Declaration of Independence, we will see that this protest and this proclamation, is carefully constructed in such a way that its petition covers all of the bases needed to make the succinct appeal to the people of America, that there comes a time when enough is enough. This is accomplished by clearly stating that the colonists must dissolve their political bands from Great Britain because that government that they are presently under is precluding them from the certain unalienable rights that all are entitled to, and further to the point that having been denied such, that the people have a right to re-assembly themselves as a separate people entitled to the safety and happiness under a government of the people that supports these things on behalf of the people. Still, the Declaration continues on, and actually appeals to the world at large, to verify the justice of their claims, in which, the colonists then list specifically their complaints against their present source of trouble.
All of the above demonstrates the correct structure of a true and virtuous political protest. That is to say, whatever your protest may be about, that those that protest should first repeatedly try to come to a successful resolution with those that they have raised their objections against. If that then fails, and further to the point, if the petitioners are being denied certain unalienable rights, than they have a right to petition to a higher independent council, specifically listing what has been denied to them, along with the reasonable efforts that they have made to resolve such, and thereby demanding satisfaction for their complaints. Then, having accomplished each of these steps, the petitioners are ethically entitled to take all the prudent and necessary measures that will permit them to secure the very things that they have been wrongly denied by their opponents. Having said that, if must be stated, that those that have not taken these appropriate steps, but instead have resorted to creating havoc or riot without having first thought through the entire process do not typically have legitimacy for their actions and their protests lack the firm foundation of a protest done with reasoning aforethought.
There are many times and many issues that people may come across in regards to personal, or business, or political events, of which they are upset, sometimes with great justification, but it isn't correct to respond by such with anger, rather one would be far better served to first understand the complete issues involved, express thoroughly to others those issues, along with petitioning such issues in front of a fair and independent tribunal for their judgment, and then to respect that decision, if soundly reasoned. Too often, however, for too many people, our protest is really about just selfishly having our own way, for right or for wrong.
