> If you compare this to what is happening in Iran, US citizens are docile.
This is still moot. Even if they appear such (even if they are such) it does not diminish the validity nor righteousness of their message.
> A "peaceful protest" is an oxymoron.
This is false by a plain understanding of the words. A "protest" is an expression against something. "Peaceful" means nonviolent. Obviously expressions can be nonviolent.
Your understanding of the word peaceful is wrong.

It clearly encapsulates a lot more than non-violence. You can't protest without disturbance.
