        Ban all weapons from public demonstrations/free speech. It's a fucking no-brainer. On hate speech I think we take Germany's example.

        Thank you @ACLU for seeing and believing. Armed protesters usually just want to intimidate or start trouble. Let police protect all equally.

        Thank you. The only reason weapons are there is to cause a chilling effect on counter protest & speech

        A peaceful protest wouldn't have/need weapons. So wouldn't a "protest with weapons" be called something else?

        @ACLU should take a page from Europe where "free speech" is separated from "hate speech". Fine line, but possible!

        You mean speech that incites violence isn't protected by the 1st amendment.

        Obviously it's not clear enough - Hate speech is what *encourages* those who would use violence, e.g. White Supremacists.
