<p>On Saturday similar protest was staged in the city. However, it turned more violent as dozens of activists were either arrested or cited by police.</p>
<p><em>"I was complying with their order to back up. I still don't know,"</em> one of the protesters, Jahmese Myres told San Jose Mercury news. <em>"My arrest was unnecessary and unwarranted."</em></p>
<p></p>
<p>The rallies were sparked by a controversial ban on nighttime protests interpreted by the Mayor Libby Schaaf. She said that the existing policies and laws allow police officers to clear streets of protesters.</p>
<p></p>
<p>According to Schaaf, the city also needs to adopt new policy to combat damage to property and violence. Many businesses in the city were badly damaged following the May Day protests.</p>
