Here's the scoop...
What's happening in Richmond, Va. today? Answer is a peaceful Gun Rights Rally, a 2A Rally...
Tens of thousands gathered in Richmond. There was no violence...there was speechifyin', rallying and chants, lots of signs, and flags of all kinds. Lots of patriots from all over the country came too...to support Virginians in standing against Northam and his crowd.
When the Pledge of Allegiance was recited everyone stopped and recited it. I would love to see videos of that. Hundreds of thousands of people reciting the Pledge all at once!
Northam and his crowd fled Richmond...the Governor nor any democratic representatives were actually in Richmond.
The Republican representatives were there...including mine and they let it be know publically were they were located so people could go meet with them.
Cell phone service was jammed and there were snipers on the roof of the office buildings around the capital and on the capital roof as well...they were spotted and photographed by people in the crowd.
Will try to post some pictures if I can figure out how...no estimate on crowd numbers yet. Waiting for a reliable source to post some.
Sic Semper Tyrannis!

People are comparing this to The Road Runner and the coyote...coyote Northam lost again.
Most people, carrying or not, stayed outside what we called the "kill pen," the chain fence erected around the Captial Grounds...it was shoulder to shoulder, the crowds outside the fence...
What a great day for Virginia Patriots!!!

Estimates are over 300,000 came from Virginia and from all over the country. There were no injuries, no violence, no arrest, and the crowd left no trash.
We are conservative patriots...not liberal trash.
Have talked to friends who were there. It was a good crowd and patriotic...
Am very proud of my state right now...we will fight back and take Virginia back.

Virginia's Capitol flooded with gun rights activists for Second Amendment rallyRICHMOND, Va. — Thousands of Second Amendment supporters carrying long firearms and wearing stickers reading “Guns Save Lives" descended upon Virginia's Capitol in Richmond Monday for a widely publicized rally to protest a recent push by state Democrats for comprehensive gun control. The rally comes as the city has been on high alert for days following threats of violence, leading to road closures as well as a ban on firearms in the Capitol and on its grounds. Yet as of midday Monday, the demonstrations were peaceful. www.foxnews.com/us/virginia-capitol-gun-rights-rally?fbclid=IwAR068D4zLGYt9yyX2H8GfhD2tGDgQIh_GzGpUwqRQxLLdJ6h8cd_MhwCsBMMost photos show the crowd inside the pens but not the thousands and thousands of people outside the pen...linning the streets around the Capital. People inside the pens couldn't carry...people outside could. Most people stayed outside the pens...

I'm so glad that stayed peaceful, in spite of opposition attempts to stir trouble!

Thanks Lori...we aren't nearly thru yet.
There is a big push to contact our congressmen and the occupant of the Governor's office...voicing our opposition to the gun laws and our support for 2A.

I'm not really familiar with the laws they are trying to pass but the rally was big news here with lots of concerns a head of it.

There are about 7 laws that are being considered...none of them necessary and if passed will bring lawsuits. They go against our 2A right. We are going to challenge them.

I hope you win all challenges Marilyn - I'm afraid they are going to continue to try to whittle away at Constitutional rights; it's getting crazier all the time.
