Most cities have permitting processes if you want to have a public gathering - but you don't see those rules being enforced either.
I don't really care for the permitting process for peacefully assembly. I would like to see the protest permitting process curtailed and more heavily restricted as to when/where/how it can be enforced - such as only being required if the gather is walking down the street, or would require blocking the sidewalk so others are impeded and cannot pass.

Freedom is messy, with freedoms will come things we don't like. Does not mean it should be illegal. Flag burning while heinous, should be legal. Now being charged with an uncontrolled fire because you are recklessly burning the flag or there is a burn ban during a drought or something like that would be another matter.
