      What are they gonna do? Shoot at the armed people who have nothing to loose as they are destined to loose everything anyways?

        Yes. That is exactly what they will do.

        Cops are not military. They are poorly trained panic strike thugs and children.

          Then the people have a reason to shoot back at the cops.

          In that sense we have seen plenty examples where cops in the US immediately withdrew or refused to engage when there is a possibility of someone shooting back at them.

            I don’t think you understand the gravity if being attacked with a weapon by someone who really wants to permanently end another. it is terrifying, and life altering. this is not a movie, this is not something that will only affect other people

            this is real life and you’re acting a if it’s a freaking movie

            I know it will probably end up in something along those lines, but don’t be so glib about it
