    I can find an endless stream of cops escalating violence against people who are not visibly armed.

    Can you show me one instance of police escalating to violence against a protestor with a rifle in their hands?

    Cops are scared bullies, they attack the weakest targets.

    When they see rifles, they go elsewhere.

    It’s not a “take” it’s what the fucking numbers say. Opinions aren’t relevant, neither is you believing anything.

      I cannot recall a single video of protesters open carrying getting shot with pepper balls, rubber bullets, or sprayed like any of the unarmed protests we see get fucked with by police in the US on the regular.
