People who were massacred were armed with Molotovs at best, there's actual video footage. Wish they had at least semi-auto weapons, this whole situation is a great argument for broad civilian gun ownership.

I never mentioned "staging a coup", further evidence that you are the one cherry-picking a narrative, this is revisionism

You have no idea what coup d'état means, do you?

What happened in that region prior to that doesn't matter now?

Nothing really happened there prior to that.
