More protests need people openly armed so cops are less likely to abuse us and leaders listen.
Very cool students!
Yeah that'll end well. They'll either have the swat team mowing people down for have the national guard do the same thing. They'll treat it like terrorism and wipe everyone out, then go on the evening news and say the protestors were firing on police first and killing puppies.
That's not how it has historically went. When the protestors are armed, organized, and remain peaceful, the cops back off because cops are cowards
Ok, and when is the last time that happened here in the US in the last 40 years?
