Listen,
for folks who don’t know, I was a part of a small organizing team that led to a mass mobilization in 813 cities worldwide in 2019.I am not talking out of my ass.
You should be VERY VERY VERY careful in this environment about sharing flyers for events that identify NO organizer

People will be in danger either way with the violence prone goons in power. If you are armed, there will be justification to shoot you. Protest at more public and friendly places. That way you will likely have allies nearby. Also, folks need to be situationally aware and plan an escape path if things turn too dangerous.
Trump’s people would probably be more likely to shoot you if unarmed, than if the crown was armed.
It’s been shown multiple times (and through history) the the opposing force is less likely to shoot the protestors if the protesters can shoot back, because now there’s also an actual danger to them.
