A number of demonstrators have been threatened by young thugs carrying assault rifles. As far as I know, none of the rifles have been discharged, but they can be intimidating. I’m afraid if my side also carries guns (shotguns would actually be more effective), there would be a chance that a small war could break out. If someone just sets off a cherry bomb, people might start shooting.
The best tactic might be if our side carried water pistols. It would make a mockery of the gun nuts and would be funny without causing an armed confrontation. Imagine the press coverage the water gun contingent would garner. It’s what I plan to do.
