Tom Wainwright, from Garden Court chambers, who represented one of the Colston defendants, said the impact of the decision was unclear “because it’s difficult to tell what a court will decide is significant and insignificant damage and what they will interpret as violent in the context of damage to property”. Asked what she made of those comments, Shadow Chancellor Anneliese Dodds told ITV News: "I won’t condone any violence and vandalism. I don’t really intervene in criminal matters like that – that’s not for me to go and be a cheerleader to the police in any criminal investigations.” It was the cathartic removal of a memorial to an oppressor of people and an abuser of power who had too long loomed over the people of Bristol,” she said. “The fact that it is gone is still right for Bristol.”

Lightfoot said Chicago has a long history of peaceful protest, and people should follow that tradition and try to build bridges with others.

Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer said the statue should have been taken down “a long, long time ago”.

I know these are difficult, intense times, but we need to be better to each other,” Lightfoot said. “We need to remember that we neighbors and we need to remember that our children are watching.” I think our police were incredible actually, and this is intelligent, nuanced policing, not Trumpian militarisation domination,” Mr Rees told BBC Breakfast. Policing minister Kit Malthouse flatly described the toppling of the statue as "a crime" and warned prosecutions may follow.Boris Johnson's spokesperson said the prime minister's view is that there is "democratic process which should be followed" when there is "strong opinion" about an issue. Though Saturday’s protest did not see the same level of violence, police injured several protesters when they drove onto a sidewalk and hit them with an unmarked car, activists said. The Sun-Times reports that COPA is investigating the incident. Gus Silverman, a civil liberties lawyer at the law firm Irwin Mitchell, who represented Larsen and Dye, suggested the outcome of the case could lead to further actions against police. He said: “Recent demonstrations have seen force used against protesters by police, whether at the vigil for Sarah Everard or at the more recent protests in Bristol. If officers at those demonstrations believed that all protests were banned under coronavirus regulations then it is now clear that they were wrong.” Boyd cried during the press conference, saying she’s received death threats from across the country and she’s being made out to be a criminal.

But he added: “You can’t, in 21st century Britain, have a slaver on a statue – a statue is there to honour people." The primary role of Jizo is to protect children. This explains why, in Studio Ghibli’s animation movie “My Neighbor Totoro,” when little Mei gets lost, she finds refuge next to Jizo statues.

Perhaps no figure from Chinese history is better known than Confucius, and his teachings inspired a religious and philosophical tradition that has gone onto influence the very fabric of everyday life in China.

When protest leaders attempted to storm the Radio Budapest building to broadcast a list of their liberation demands, they were stopped by the Soviet Secret Police. The crowd grew unruly, the police opened fire, and all hell broke loose. Central Budapest was a war zone for the months to come, the streets lined with burning cars and police barricades. During GoodKids MadCity’s press conference, Boyd’s attorney, Sheila Bedi, said Boyd was a peaceful protester exercising her First Amendment rights when an officer slapped her so hard her tooth came out. Priti Patel, making a statement in the House of Commons, said more than 137,500 people attended the mostly "peaceful" protests, but a "lawless minority of protesters" turned to violence. Mr Johnson tweeted that "people have a right to protest" but turning to violence was "a betrayal of the cause they purport to serve."
