The Republican Controlled Arizona State Senate is moving forward with a bill that would penalize protest organizers if the events they organize result in any property destruction or personal violence.

That is the hallmark of our democratic republic. This is unconstitutional and should not pass judicial scrutiny (hopefully.)
