I think that U.S. citizens have a huge advantage over citizens of other countries because of the free sale of weapons.
I do not support armed conflicts, but it is the weapons in the hands of protesters that send a message to the government of serious discontent among citizens.
it just sends a message that when people for the betterment of the general public should stay at a distance when idiots want to not do that and instead carry weapons. the only message it sends is to send in the armoured vehicles to arrest them
havnt you realised yey. cops have the right to self defense too. so if someone is being aggressive and weilding a gun. then for self defense a cop can shoot an idiot.
so yea idiots shouting and arguing and saying how they hate and want to take down people employed by the government. is a threat.
idiots are just asking for suicide by cop
if they want to be smart. go find a job at a farm. or protest in PEACEFUL NON THREATENING WAYS WHERE THERE IS NO RISK OR HARM OR DOUBT about their intentions.
a right to bear arms does not mean a right to be an idiot waving a gun around in public while being an idiot
