Would protestors be safer? Thousands of masked people with guns. Chaos?

I can’t help but think that the only solution to ICE is a “well regulated militia” in combination with political reform, with both being necessary.

    Peaceful mass protests are the only way to stop this authoritarian takeover. If it gets violent the government will always have more firepower.

    Trump and his cronies want the protests to become violent. They are hoping for an excuse to throw in jail or kill anyone they do not like. Do not do them that favor.

      Resisting is “authoritarian”. Rolling over and dying is libertarian.

        Yeah, let’s see how it works out for you and your marxist book club buddies when you bring a couple rifles and try to start your “righteous revolution”… You will be crushed. Violent factions are playing right in to the bait.

        Protect each other, aid each other… but dont be fucking naive. Fucking leftists vi swear. You cant out-gun the largest military industrial complex in human history.
