    This gives the cops license to start slaughtering protestors. They’re allowed to kill if they have a reason to fear for their safety.

      Nope. Cops are bullies and cowards by nature. They love to swing their dicks around unarmed, peaceful protesters.

      Any sign of any possible resistance or discomfort and they’ll suddenly turn into pillars of restraint and caution.

      IE look at all the armed Nazi protests, or uvlade or any other of the myriad of examples.

        There’s a reason why cops are polite at the Nazi protests, and it isn’t because the protesters are armed.
