Protest Suppressed?

Our President and his security forces now want an allied foreign country, Britain, to suppress its residents rights to gather in legitimate protest. I understand that the British people are not governed by our laws and Constitution, which by the way includes a "right of the people peaceably to assemble" (Amendment I to the Constitution), but it seems to me like if the President really wants to be the leader of the Free World he should allow people in other countries the "right of the people peaceably to assemble" as our laws are supposed to. I guess he is ashamed of his policies that led these people to want to protest.

We must dare to think "unthinkable" thoughts. We must learn to explore all the options and possibilities that confront us in a complex and rapidly changing world. We must learn to welcome and not to fear the voices of dissent. James W. Fulbright
