Juliet went to Independence Park to protest the recent budget cuts to education in Clark County. It was a spur of the moment thing and as a result she was alone in her efforts. Nonetheless she yelled and marched and held various signs up to get her point across. She is arrested and charged with rioting. Is this charge appropriate in the given circumstance?

No, even though she was alone, if she was rioting she would be destructive and be hurting others. Because she was only making her point across in a non violent was she was just protesting
