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. While granting that protests should not descend to chaos, this move by the Arizona State Senate, like their earlier move this month to restrict how petition signatures are gathered, is another plan to thwart the democratic process and the right of the opposition to oppose. That is the hallmark of our democratic republic. This is unconstitutional and should not pass judicial scrutiny (hopefully.)
