It's less "exercising their rights" and more defending themselves. There's literally a sniper pointed at them, the cops are ready to kill.

Of course it could also backfire...

Cops get a lot less willing to brutalize people if they know that will be the last move they ever make.

Modified Maidan book, if protesters bring guns, the dogs will shoot one of their own, blame it on protesters and at best squash the protest.
