Thanks for the contribution. Weird that you're the one posting David French. :P

I tend to agree that open carry protests are not a great idea.

French's criticism assumes that local authorities are doing their best to maintain order and allow multiple viewpoints free expression.

We've seen the failure of the former most recently, but the failure of the latter has been on display for several years now. Trump rallies in nominally blue areas tended to end up with Trump supporters getting funneled into counterprotesters where they get harassed and assaulted, despite alternate egress options available to police (San Jose, Charlottesville, DC after the RNC, etc)

David French has no response to diversity of tactics employed by the left. Open carry at least attempts to address this, despite its downsides.

If schools and such are virtual the why can't protests be virtual?

it's just so strange how 50% of the people in all these videos are also all recording videos

why doesn't everyone just pass a bottle of vodka around and jerk off on each other's faces instead?

it seems like they are all over-compensating for something

"white supremacists" is the left wing name for "right wing crowd" for the last four years.

Seriously, do this shit virtually. Smash up shops and beat people up with skateboards using the oculus rift.

Fair enough. I guess the left is labeled antifa so it all evens out

There is no left and there is no right. If you believe that there is, your brain has been compromised.
