To anyone reading this: Russian, Chinese, (even American) bots and agitators are astroturfing all over social media to get America to spin out into more violence. It’s been well documented for almost a decade now. Please think about “who” (or what) is posting all these calls to violence.
Defending oneself from being attacked is different than actively committing violence unprovoked. Please just think about this. Having said all that, every American should still arm themselves and know how to use it.
There’s a lot of grey area there. I mean you personally or close family/friends being in illegal imminent danger of bodily harm, not just generally something you saw on social media that made you mad.

State violence is still violence, so self defense still applies.
There’s a huge gray area there, so follow your local laws when in doubt.
My post history should show I’m not a bot or agitator.
Incredibly based.
