Actor Shia LaBeouf got charged with misdeamor assault and a harassment violation after getting into an argument with someone at an anti-Trump protest. It occurred in New York in front of the Museum of the Moving Image. There was some verbal and physical interaction between him and a pro Trump person. This has an impact because Shia LaBeouf is a well known actor and brings awareness to the situation. Also, this could scare protesters because of the consequences they might face for stating their voice and sharing their opinion. This incident doesn't make Shia LaBeouf look good and makes him come off as a mad tempered violent person. But, this brings attention to the idea that celebrity's are protesting and letting their voices be heard as well. This event shouldn't scare protesters from protesting because they have the full right too. Protests and marches should be peaceful but get your message across of what you want. All Americans have the right to protest and I think they should if they are against the values or thoughts of our new president, Donald Trump.
