A gun in its holster carries the implication of it no longer being there. Its a threat, and I feel threatened. Though I grew up around cops who were much more verbal with their threats of violence, the quiet ones make me nervous too.

I feel threatened when people leaders chant River to the Sea and the followers scream at me “Kill them” .

You’re arguing at a strawman and I don’t know why. I’m clearly not going to step in to defend a scarecrow.

I personally experienced it and wrote about it here on the day it happened. Was in October last year in front of the State Library.
Or are you saying my lived experienced is not valid?
