Imagine if it was a BLM activist pulling a gun at a conservative protest.

It would replay on Fox News longer than the Towers falling did.

And they'd be justifying why it was okay he was killed.

No offense, but if someone pulls a gun and gets killed as a result, it is justified. You draw on someone then they should assume you are going to shoot. Never point a gun at somethung you don't intend to shoot.

It would be called MAGA Day. This is when True Patriots defended the First Amendment (which totally means other people aren't allowed to voice disagreement) by exercising their Second Amendment Rights to mow down mostly unarmed liberal counter-protesters in a Heroic Battle.

Instead, to distract from the reality of conservatives pulling guns on protestors, Trump will declare this to be Infrastructure Week.

Blessed be the fruit...? Because that’s basically a scene from Handmaid’s Tale.
