Yeah no it isn't. You have a right to peacefully protest as long as it doesn't infringe upon other people's rights. You don't have the right to protest via rioting which infringes upon's everyone's rights who is involved, and it breaks major laws as well.

That's not really brown townogous since the national socialists were actively trying to kill Jews. At that point it's self-defense and the term 'protest' no longer applies.

I'm not talking about mass genocide nor the victims involved. I'm talking about situations like this, where violence is extremely unnecessary and also illegal as well.
Plus just like Seventh said

In self defense, violence is justified. In protests where the only thing against you is opinion, it is not justified and it is also illegal to do so.
