It's a fine edge. You cant just say "oh, there's a protestor, ram him!" But you also want to protect the guy who got stuck in traffic, and now rioters are smashing his windows, and he hits someone in the crowd NOT rioting as he tries to escape. Legal protection for the guy running for his life, but not for the guy who wants to go psychopathic.

You protest in a park or on a sidewalk. if your protest is going to be huge you pull a permit and close a section of road. you dont just have a riot in the middle of the street and cry about your free speech.

I doubt the bill is worded so ambiguously as to allow someone to mow down a pedestrian who happens to look at him funny.
