IMHO the cop handled it correctly, completely de-escalated the scene and made it possible for him to leave. Seems like some people want to see the cops openly execute people for wrong think. While id agree the cops are being soft on antifa, i don't wanna see them getting shot for what they are doing, they should be captured and tried for sedition. and from my understanding from news reports several antifa were arrested and charged in this incident.
That being said, everyone should carry and be ready to defend themselves and the innocent.
just gonna plug in here, the Gab Browser "Dissenter" has an addon built into it that used be the famous plugin known as Dissenter that created a webpage ontop of the website that you are on and allow you to make comments and visible to everyone who has the addon. This pissed off alot of the big tech so they banned the addon. Now its back in Gabs Browser.
its not about minorities being able to get an ID, that's just racist democrat propaganda. The reality is that they want to be able to count illegal aliens votes too. It was never about minorities not having the resources to get an ID. Anyone who believes that is retarded or racist.
