Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

This question is a hard one to answer. There are 2 right answers and you have to pick one. The two are

1. Right of freedom of assembly

2. He's in a rally as a protest.

He emphasized when he  talked about his activities that he was concerned about exercising the right of assembly. He made sure that his followers understood that it had to be peaceful even when the opposition was not.

He used rallies as his focal point on how to exercise his protests. They had to be peaceful.

But what answer do you give? I would say that it is A which is the freedom that he was using and which could not be disputed if it was peaceful. B talks about method, but I think the Principle is more important.

Freedom of peaceful assembly, sometimes used interchangeably with the freedom of association, is the individual right or ability of people to come together and collectively express, promote, pursue, and defend their collective or shared ideas.
