Why do people protest?
People protest to voice their opinions, concerns, or disagreements publicly, hoping to bring about change or draw attention to an issue. The Glasgow protests, with both an anti-immigration rally and a counter-protest, illustrate how different groups use public assembly to express their views on important social and political matters.
