If everybody at ICE protests showed up with masks and a gun would there be more or less violence? (lemmy.world)

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.

I doubt they're worried about that. Protest implies that the gun is symbolic or defensive. ICE is there to shoot, and will shoot first.

If it turns into a gunfight, one side gets a gov pension when the smoke clears, and the other side gets prison if they live.
