This is California, the state with the strictest gun laws in the country on the books. You're asking civilians with compliant arms to go up against literal military surplus equipment (provided through the 1033 program)?

Also, nice bot username. Let's see if you reply to any of the comments.

Seems like we need to start funneling arms into CA from surrounding states?

Who said that police will dare to return fire? It is easy when you're against one negro or a band of drunken bikers in the worst case. But fighting against people? Being in the minority? Nah...

They will 100% return fire. You’re an idiot.

And you're a coward. Totally deserving of what Trump regime will do with you.

If not openly carrying a gun to a protest and risking my life makes me a coward, then yes, I agree. What if I told you there are better ways to disrupt the conservative agenda than flaunting a gun around a cop?

There are many ways. Global strike, for example, if you're a complete pacifist. But you won't do that either. Because you "have a family to feed".
