You seem to love restrictions that dictatorships would use to control their citizens.

The 1st amendment to the US Constitutional gives citizens the right to peacefully assemble.

Persons committing violent or other unlawful acts in the vicinity of such a peaceful assembly should be arrested.


US Constitution, Amendment I

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.

The reason for coordination with protests is to minimize economic impact. When protestors take to interstates, it causes traffic jams, for example. If it were planned, the traffic can be diverted so a traffic jam never happens. Businesses in the area of protests also have the right to know that their operations will be interrupted by a protest in the area.

Public protests are supposed to coordinate with local authorities.
Private protests are coordinated with the property owner.

Unlawful assembly starts butting up against insurrection (not "peaceably").

Dear citizens, we're sorry, but due to unavoidable scheduling issues your petition to assemble has been denied. Please check back next year.

Orange Shitstain and The Boy Prince Should Be Prosecuted for Crimes Against Humanity
They have let the pandemic rage on because it’s mostly killing people in blue states.

Quote:
... a new report from Vanity Fair implicates both Trump and his son-in-law Jared Kushner of an unspeakable horror orders of magnitude greater. Instead of implementing a comprehensive and aggressive national testing plan as originally recommended by the White House coronavirus task force, Kushner scuttled it. The president and his son-in-law were instead content to allow tens of thousands of Americans die as long as they were mostly people of color, and hailing from Democratic states and counties. Not only that, they saw it as a political opportunity to both cull the numbers of opposing voters and lay blame on Democratic governors at the same time:

They are required to accommodate public protests. They can't put it off indefinitely.
