It's famously peaceful if you carry a gun to a protest and it famously drives no officer around you even more to their edge.

If these cowardly goons are afraid of American citizens exercising their second amendment rights they should find another job.

  • As should you refrain from making assesments on human psychology if you are not able to do so.

Interesting. When people who stormed the Capitol openly carried assault rifles, MAGA had no problem with it. They called them patriots and peaceful protesters.

  • It's not about people carrying a gun at all, it's that should you carry a gun to a protest and should you engage in resisting to law enforcement while doing that. Had this person been perfectly still, he'd be still alive. (And also, had he not had that gun, but still resisted, he'd likely would have also been alive.)

    • How is it 'resisting' when you have been chemically blinded and being beaten with metal objects?

      This idea of people "resisting" when they are being assaulted to death is ridiculous.

      If I start beating your face in with the grip of my gun, you deserve to get shot if you "resist"?

      Again, I'd like to see you stay perfectly still after getting peppersprayed in the face without any reason. At no point was he threatening and attacking ICE agents. He was trying to help another woman who had just been assaulted by agents. They created the very situation that led to this tragedy.
