Does protesting help

JESUS BETANCOURT 1955 (New York)

Rhymed
Want to promote evil of an adversary
Protesting helps reaching their objective
Police and media are their strategy
Exposing protesters turbulent behavior as prospective

Protesters reaction is subjective
Again it doesn't really matter
Violence on both sides is destructive
The one's responsible don't hear the clatter
