Chapter 113B contains detailed provisions and definitions of terrorism. In the United States, protection against terrorist acts falls under the jurisdiction of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI). We`ll leave the exact mark to the justice departments, but here we`ll look at the dictionary and legal definitions to clarify these tracking terms – and turbulent times. Based on Chapter 113B, the FBI also provides definitions of international terrorism and domestic terrorism. 1. a formal statement by a person interested in or involved in and in respect of an imminent or already performed act, expressing dissenting or disapproving opinion or affirming the act to be performed against his will or belief, the general purpose of which is to save a right lost to him; whether their implied consent could be established; or to absolve itself of any liability associated with it, unless it has expressly refused its consent or voluntary participation in the law. 2.

A crowd can form from a demonstration, but the word protesters is usually used to refer to people who peacefully make themselves heard in public in one way or another.

As far as I know, the term protest used above is not formally defined in the United States Code. The Federal Law on Combating Riots (1968) partially defines the term riot as “a public disturbance which .. one or more acts of violence committed by one or more persons forming part of a gathering of three or more persons, one or more acts of which must constitute a clear and present danger or result in damage or injury to the property of another person or person” (Title 18, Chapter 102, §2102).

Of all the words we discussed, mob is the most general. Mob is often used as a synonym for the word riot in everyday language. In fact, mobs are often described as riots, and usually protesters aim to influence public opinion and/or government policy by expressing objections to a political idea or action through protest.
In general, a protest in the relevant sense is “a usually organized public display of disapproval” (of a law, policy, idea, or condition), while a riot is “a disturbance of the peace caused by an assembly of, usually three or more persons, acting for a common purpose and in a violent and turbulent manner to terrorize the public” (Merriam-Webster`s Dictionary of Law).
