Minneapolis has a right to defend itself.
I do applaud folks bringing weapons with them to these protests and trying to keep their neighborhoods safe but if you’re not willing to use them then you’re just gonna get murdered.
Honestly, you’re just going to get murdered unless you are bringing weapons collectively, and in a coordinated way. If this guy brandished his weapon he would have been killed all the same. He was, in effect, alone.
you’re absolutely right… it takes more than a couple people with guns. everyone has to organize on it and watch each others’ backs
