Keep in mind that countries do not lose they're freedoms overnight. It is usually a slow process where people gradually accept losing freedom in exchange for security. I am not going to get into conspiracy stuff, but there is a slippery slop, in my opinion, with some of this stuff.
That is surely one thing they are protesting but, it isn't the primary purpose of them being there. They didn't know the change in the law until they arrived.

Do I like the law? No but, I understand the reason behind it. The bad behaviour at these events has cause a progressive tightening of security.

The reason these folks are protesting vary but, they all relate to social justice issues. They seek the redistribution of wealth on a global scale. On the surface it sounds very noble. In reality it will rob us of the freedom we still have left.
