So, just go into it with violence in mind, then? What advice is this really giving? Shoot first, because they're just going to lie about it anyway?
Fuck that.
Defend yourself if you have to, but telling people to use violence, just makes what they say about protesters, true. Don't validate them.
I agree with you that nobody should participate in protests with the intention to engage in violence, however I think anyone who's going to protest needs to be ready to defend themselves with violence.
Law enforcement won't be the only threat you face.
Bringing my hard hat, my gas mask, with extra NATO cartages, an umbrella, a spray bottle with water, back up battery, and a 5 gallon bucket.
Be safe and happy cake day!
Thank you!
Oh! And my gun range ear muffs with high frequency dampening for when they use the sonic weapons.
