Does being armed actually deter cops in Texas? In my home country being armed is more likely to alert cops
*American cops.
Everything you just said would not be true of, for example, Danish cops. Or French cops, for that matter.
My point exactly. If you're going to do something with weapons on display in France because of the police, the police are only going to take that as a provocation. There'd be a fire fight.
If there was one or two, sure, but 200+?
Have you ever seen what a protest looks like in Paris?
Judging by another reply, ey meant that French cops will engage in a fight rather than chicken out. That doesn't make them the good guys, of course
less true, yes. not true? idk
The police are an arm of the state formed specifically for the purpose of maintaining a societies class structure because the laws they enforce are dictated by that societies ruling class. French and Danish cops absolutely will do whatever the state tells them because its their job, they are law enforcers not law interpreters. One day shit will go down hill for the French and Danish ruling class and when that happens they will use their law enforcers to maintain their standard of living which is to say their positions of power and wealth. This is very normal and becomes quite clear when you learn the history of labor and civil rights movements all over the world.
France maybe, but you clearly don't know the first thing about Denmark.
It stopped the cops from entering a school while someone slaughtered 19 kids and 2 adults and that was just 1 person with a gun. So I'd say this would.
Have you heard about Uvalde?
Cops much prefer to beat up their unarmed wife than an armed group.
Don't forget about the children.
But only unarmed ones
Cops only punch down
The thing is, those guns cause pain and injury by ejecting small pieces of metal so fast they go right through you.
That pain and injury is a deterrence, yes. Even in Texas.
A dozen armed people attract cops.
A couple hundred armed people repel cops.
A single armed guy in a Texas school will attract cops at a medium distance but repel them at a short distance.
