Carrying Guns During Protests

My own home state of NC has a law against the carry of firearms in parades, protests, etc. It’s dumb and unconstitutional.
There have been a number of articles on this subject in the wake of the recent ICE shooting in Minnesota, like this one and this one.
Most of them are pretty dumb and miss the point. I don’t want to get into a long-winded discussion of it, but I’ll say this much. Whomever was carrying the firearm, assuming that he was an American citizen and thus a recipient of the hard work of securing the obligations of covenant protections (i.e., the constitution), had a right to be carrying a gun.
What that person did not have the right to do is impede the removal of invaders from America, or perpetrate further invasion of America. That’s called treason. The second amendment is in place for the amelioration of tyranny. It does not protect the imposition of another tyranny.
