Reply to comment by ImperialCobalt in Unity Rally, will start with a mutual aid stand for those that need food and then march. Some Protesters will be legally armed and medics will be on site. Please meet with security if you have a health condition upon arrival, wear sneakers and layers. by Lilcoqui17

No they haven’t. The Connecticut historical society has an entire archive. Lol. We provide our own security and West Haven police broke a man’s spine in 2020, denied me my asthma meds in 2021. They just beat on Gordon Cox from Shelton. Etc.

I'm referencing the protests following Floyd's death...protestors in CT were peaceful (for example, blocking of I-84) and the police prayed with them and asked them to leave to let ambulances through.

Yes, there isolated incidences, but not the deadly and consistent violence in response to protests. Is the best way to counter that lethal weapons? Would pepper spray not have been enough?

They have the right to 2a, it is for their safety.

There could be people who are against the protesters.

He’s indicating the protest led by the same people in 2020…. Me and my brothers.

It’s nice that you reference the protest we led without attending. We stopped being the victims of violence at local rallies when we announced we would be legally armed.
