      And then you are regularly arrested for trespassing and damage to property.

      Setting aside the abysmal crime clearance rate for breaking-and-entering, you’re only subject to arrest if you’re on the wrong side of the police. This leads to a peculiar situation in which law enforcement can and do break into people’s property, ransack it, and occasionally kill the inhabitants, without consequence. What’s more, civilians allied with the police can raid property and engage in assault without consequence, because a given officer/DA tacitly approves of the offense.

      Shame on you if you tell people to disregard the law

      When might makes right, there is no law to disregard.

      You can not just go somewhere without a permission and occupy other peoples property.
      

      You absolutely can and people routinely do.

      And then you are regularly arrested for trespassing and damage to property.

      On the other hand, you can simply register the demonstration with the municipal office and then demonstrate in the designated area as often and as long as you want.

      Shame on you if you tell people to disregard the law, ending them up in jail.

      Chose your poison.
