When I see footage of protesters they mostly get tackled, tear gassed, or chased off. And in no way have I ever see them with a gun, knife, or any other form of defense to protect themselves.

Poorly organized and no preparation.

You don't always even need weapons. If you have a large mass of people, you shouldn't let a few chuds fuck up anyone in your group. I hate seeing videos of one lone asshole harassing a whole crowd. I remember recently seeing a video of one Zionist doing that to abig Palestinian protest, and most in the crowd were White. It's embarrassing.

Totally agree with you, this stuff seems to happen much less at demonstrations where there is an organized group with some security plan.
