Yup.

When my bonus drops next month I'll be buying my first rifle, and I'm going to get the biggest, and scariest-looking one that I can for the sole purpose of being able to stand at the front of protests and be a visual deterrent. Mutually-assured destruction is the only thing that stops bullies.

Make sure you train a whole bunch before taking it anywhere. If something happens you want to be able to have confidence that you can react the right way quickly.

A bit of advice, look into getting a plate carrier (plus plates), an IFAK (Individual First Aid Kit), and training to go along with it if you're going to protests
