I prefer peace, but that option is dwindling day by day. The most peaceful option is voting, yet millions of people were denied the right to vote in the last election, and Republicans are gearing up to do it again in the midterms and beyond.

Peaceful protesters are being arrested or executed. People peacefully voicing dissent are being labeled terrorists, and the DOJ is being weaponized to go after peaceful political opponents. People peacefully and lawfully navigating the immigration process are being jailed, separated from their families, and deported to places they have never been before.

They have already chosen violence. While I prefer peace, if they want to remove all peaceful means available, then the only option left is to fight back.
