[G_j]

I've been to large and small protests since the days of the Vietnam war.
I have NEVER seen a protester with a gun.

what's going on?

[Warpy]

1. Right wing intimidation

That's the only reason even though they wrap themselves in the flag and blather endlessly about their second amendment rights.

2. Me too. I guess we'll have to have another Kent State, where the Guard thought there was a gun,

before the idiots stop.

6. It's hard for to imagine what might have happened

at some of the demonstrations where the cops were armed to the teeth in riot gear, like the last two Republican conventions.

3. That goes for the hundred protests, I have been to also!

Right wing Hate Speech is hitting it's mark.

4. RATs - Rightwing Armed Thugs

The politics of fear and intimidation.
