Anyway, usually they are organized, often respectful enough to tell authorities in advance of the day, time, and route they will take. The authorities will sometimes attempt to stop this behaviour (interfere, attempt to arrest), but usually will just be on hand to re-direct traffic away from the route to avoid confrontation and accidents.

Can anyone else shed more light?
So they break the law and cause disturbances? Seems to me, this cop had enough of their , and basically snapped.
