Would protestors be safer? Thousands of masked people with guns. Chaos?

I can’t help but think that the only solution to ICE is a “well regulated militia” in combination with political reform, with both being necessary.

    the people would never win because they’d be fighting the American empire’s forces

    I think the US has been great at spreading the “we are so invincibly powerful” narrative, but, how would that actually work? Do you see the US military carpet-bombing their own cities? A nuke here and there?

    Soldiers, in the end, are people. No matter how MAGA they can be, I bet most would think twice about bombing their own country and countrymen.

      I mean, there was WACO, but hopefully you’re right and I’m just too used to these old narratives and exaggerating whatever inhumanity some Americans might have.
