Well yeah one are peaceful protestors, the other is armed. Cops get scared when someone else can fight back on an even playing field. Even if that somebody is a horrible monster murdering children. They didn’t join the force to protect people they joined so people had to do what they say.
“To protect capital and serve the upper class.”
I may be being pedantic, but I wouldn’t call a 1 vs 376 situation an “even playing field”.
No you are absolutely right. Cops should have just stormed the room at that point. But they knew he had a gun and they valued their lives more. A cop’s wife died while he fucken waited.
Never forget that CA governor Ronald Reagan pushed for a law against folks exercising their second amendment rights to bear arms while patrolling and protecting their communities.
Those folks? The Black Panthers.

Both Republicans and Democrats in California supported increased gun control, as did the National Rifle Association of America.
They’re just like the IDF. They can only fight unarmed women and children.
Because they know college protesters aren’t armed.
Because they’re cowards. Violent cowards who revel in oppression. The worst kind of coward.
They’re bullies.
Both the cowardice in the face of actual risk to themselves and the senseless use of violence when they feel safe against those who can or won’t resist in a way that endagers them, are core bully traits.
College protesters really need to learn firearm safety and start open carrying rifles at their protests. But they all gotta do it. Can’t be one or two random people.

I am basically afraid of getting on some kind of dissenter’s list by up voting this one.
The only way to beat this is to (up)vote
College protesters should have guns.
everyone should have guns.
Says the guy sitting safely in front of his PC, never having been to a single protest. Sure buddy, you tell them.
