Categorically though, you are conflating two issues. Any violent riot (yes, that is what it is) will end up in hospitalizations and arrests. Spinning it as a secret state action against people just doing their thing is not genuine.
Imagine a scenario where 2A supporters violently protested outside of the ATF headquarters in Washington DC, brandishing firearms and attempting to attack the building and people in it. Imagine yourself as you are now with your present opinion, would you be supportive of or against the protesters?
I’m speaking more generally in the benign everyday sharing of innocuous opinions online that spiral wildly out of control.
