No one wants the cops to shoot them, not seriously. We're just saying that because it's what commonly happens when people pick up guns, occupy a building that belongs to the government (or other people), and then say publicly that they'll shoot any cop that tries to arrest them.
Generally, if you threaten to shoot cops, here, that's your ass. You get shot, instead.
It's not the simple fact that they're carrying guns that is at issue, but how they're using them. They're not just walking around with guns. They're saying, "Here are our guns. If you try to come and take them, we will use them on you."
They have broken the law; they are subject to arrest. They have made it clear that they will resist arrest with lethal violence against police.
What's the fucking question, at this point?

A Christian told me: if you were saved you cant lose your salvation. you're sealed with the Holy Ghost
I replied: Can I refuse? Because I find the entire concept of vicarious blood sacrifice atonement to be morally abhorrent, the concept of holding flawed creatures permanently accountable for social misbehaviors and thought crimes to be morally abhorrent, and the concept of calling something "free" when it comes with the strings of subjugation and obedience perhaps the most morally abhorrent of all... and that's without even going into the history of justifying genocide, slavery, rape, misogyny, religious intolerance, and suppression of free speech which has been attributed by your own scriptures to your deity. I want a refund. I would burn happily rather than serve the monster you profess to love.
