Protesting with guns just means the whole thing would devolve into a firefight with more civilians than police being killed.

minus-squarebloodfart@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3arrow-down2·7 months agoIt’s not happened like that in the past. If protesters are armed then the police tend to back off. Of course, the government then has to choose wether or not to drop bombs on the protesters, but the odds are way, way against that.
