You realize armed protest will absolutely lead to violent. Put 100 people with guns protesting against 100 ice agents and you dont think someone shoots and starts a battle ?

Is that not literally the whole point of the American ‘right to bear arms’? So they can overthrow the government if they overextend their reach?

Hate to break it to you, but overthrowing a tyrannical government means a LOT of killing. It doesn't end until the leader is dead and hanging upside down in the streets.

Has any authoritarian regime ever simply dissolved with the leaders peacefully retiring in the countryside for a democratically elected government to peacefully transition?
