We The People should be allowed to be as equally armed as our civilian police.

I scroll through the forum articles and 85%+ of them sound that way.

It’s Bizarro World.

Infuriating and, I hate to admit it in public: depressing, too.

They’re all jealous that the ‘moms’ and ‘witches’ of Portland are giving away helmets, vests, hockey sticks, umbrellas, goggles, gas masks and assorted other stuff on a daily basis, with an actual waiting list no less.
Lot of money laundering going on. Nobody in Seattle is doing the same and Portlanders are shaming them.

just a taste:

Imagine the howls from the Left if the NRA, expressly noting that the rioters and looters were wearing body armor, even suggested that people use FMJs?

By rioting, pillaging, and looting, BLM has forfeited all civil rights.

Want to be safe from the cops? Don’t violate the law and fight the cops.

Besides, in practical terms BLM is getting millions of dollars. Not going to equipment?

Lots'a pockets to fill. The leaders need their dachas, after all.

they’re being priced out of their civil rights by the prohibitive costs of defending themselves against police violence.

Are they making the 2nd amendment argument that they're entitled to the same arms as the military?
