And i wonder how much real effort is going into that, as opposed to the people targeted in the Jan 6th event.

Probably, but I'd rather not test that without a weapon of my own at my side.

Odds are good they'd eventually hit someone; if not the people they intended to hit.
I never said I wouldn't be armed as well
I'd just "hand" them a Molotov cocktail.

As a "gun-control asshole" myself, I absolutely am opposed to this!

Worst bit about that is them blocking traffic, honestly (and probably the terrible state of their gear and/or practice with it...Critiquing right-wingers setups and hypothetical proficiency with it is always a fun pasttime, no reason it can't be applied to a differing political spectrum).
Would that more of the protests in this vein were similar armed parades (on sidewalk as opposed to the street) as opposed to the 'mostly peaceful' arson, looting and murders that have happened (and been downplayed or excused by both media via the 'mostly peaceful' line, and by authorities via the lack of prosecution of those involved).

I'm sure I'm misunderstanding your unclear posts again, but it sounds like you're saying those states are opposed to protestors wandering around armed. Or, are you saying that you think it's a good thing that supporting a democrat position in a right leaning state is more likely to lead to a shooting incident? I'm really not trying to be facetious. You're just often too hurried in getting your post out for clarity.
States like Florida and Oklahoma have put in that if a driver is forced to run down protestors or accidently does so, they aren't charged. There was more in these laws, to fight Riots.
In Texas, theynow legally allow constitutional carry. Which means no license. So they are more likely to end up getting shot in Texas

So... You are in fact saying it would be a good thing if people who are currently doing nothing but exercising their constitutional rights ended up dead? That's pretty disgusting.
Stop it with the personal attacks and insults!
"PLEASE STAND BY"I can't even begin to imagine why you think I'd do something like that, and more importantly I don't care because I don't give the tiniest shit what you think.
Enought!!! This thread is in a state of zero tolerance! Any further insults, name calling or attacks on personal integrity by anyone 'will' result in a thread ban.
YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!

Rioting is not protesting.
True, but I think we can all agree that the line between rioting and protesting should not be purely the say-so of the local police getting on their sound truck and declaring it so.

Duh? We're talking about a particular group of people here though. Are you saying that them just hanging out with their assault rifles makes it a riot rather than a protest? Or, maybe that anyone else purporting to be supporting the same cause rioting means anyone who supports that cause is inherently rioting rather than protesting?
EDIT; It also seems like you're suggesting that summary mob justice killing is alright for rioting rather than protesting? That seems pretty awful too.
When things start burning, it is no longer a protest. When people start getting beaten, things thrown, it is no longer a protest
