the rioters are breaking the law. obviously. anger isn’t justification for hurting someone or destroying property. that’s why.

so protesters or rioters. cant reasonably have a reason to fear for their life in that moment. From a guy with a Gun. Because they may or may not be breaking the law. And the guy with the gun was there to bring order so hes cool?.

So a normal person should be in fear of the rioters/ protestors, carrying bats, bottles, bricks, batons, knives, etc, what is your point?

if it’s an open carry state ( i don’t know if it is), then seeing a guy with a gun isn’t cause to fear for your
life. not unless he was threatening them.
