Question regarding second amendment: Can the mere presence of a gun be considered a provocation?
This is a DUmmy looking to justify preemptive violence.
The best way to prevent getting shot is not to riot.
go ahead and protest. March, chant slogans, carry signs.
But if you burn things, assault people, loot, attack cops, your chances of getting shot move substantially higher.
IOW, Don't start sh-t.
