“More specifically, they argue that protest is not justified if it constitutes an invasion of privacy.. A prime example is the series of amrches of August, 1965, led by negro comedian Dick Gregory to and around the home of Mayor Richard J. Daley in Chicago’s Bridgeport section, an area of modest middle- class homes. “ (15)
