Have you ever BEEN to a protest? Especially the ones where people are doing something clearly illegal?
The nicer people will tell you to fuck off with the cameras.
The less nicer people will break your camera and/or beat you.

What you're describing is not protest but vandalism. The first is allowed, the second is not. That is what I said after all, that this rabble did not 'walk the path'.
These people don't care if its vandalism, its morally righteous to them, and so its not vandalism, its a humanistic protest.
