Why not? Don't focus on the people doing the demonstrating but on the idea of the freedoms that our country allows. 1st Ammendment guarantees that. Shouldn't matter who or what group is doing the demonstrating (whether they be "left wing pinko hippies" to the other extreme group of "right wing fanatical American Nazi Party" or the KKK).
The "beauty" of our country is the freedoms allowed, not because of the groups doing the demonstrating.
I agree with Sandman 100%. It's not the groups/people demonstrating in these pictures (you'd never catch me alive in one of those parades), but the idea that those that we disagree with can demonstrate.
Just so we're clear so you or anyone else doesn't put words in my mouth: I support everyone's right to demonstrate
even if I happen to disagree with them. That's what makes our country great. Our ancestors/soldiers fought and died for our freedoms.
