So they're saying that armed Right-wing militias could storm the State Capitol and kick off a "second Civil War..."
Do you believe that will happen? I can't see it getting that far.
To what end would that benefit the cause of the pro-gun attendees? A monster shoot-em-up rally where the Capitol gets stormed and folks get shot and killed works against the pro-gun crowd.
This is in no way "right wing militias"!
This is every day normal folks of Virginia being classified as such to create condemnation.
Here is one of the many leaders most recent post.
"I proposed Captain Parker's orders.
Stand your ground. Do not fire unless fired upon, but if they mean to have a war, let it begin here."
Sound familiar?
gun owners back is against the wall.
If these laws pass, they become instant felons.
So they have had enough.
They are still trying legal means but it is an unlikely conclusion.
coonman is pushing this hard and has doubled down(fencing, emergency proclamation)
This will not end well.

Sic Semper Tyrannis is being repeated often and freely
OK, so for those of you playing along at home, here are the main issues under consideration by Virginia's Democratic leadership:
1. Background checks for gun owners
2. Enactment of "Red Flag" laws.
3. Limits of one firearm purchase per month.
#2 is probably the most contentious as it opens a Pandora's Box that could enable law enforcement to revoke your guns for almost no reason whatsoever.
What did I miss?
biggest--AWB^^^^^^
They can't even describe one so ban would be all encompassing.
Red flag is huge as well
It's all an infringement that will have little to no effect on crime.
This is about power.
This is about bloomberg

To the left--the catch phrase, "reasonable" really means comply.
Lesson learned - 2A rallies should be held at the southern border.

I'm sure that everyone has now heard that Governor Northam has declared a state of emergency and banned the carrying & possession of weapons on Capitol Square in Richmond from 5:00 pm Friday, January 17 to 5:00 pm on Tuesday, January 21.
VCDL believes that this gun ban is illegal. Our legal team is looking at our options and we will keep you advised as soon as we have a definitive plan. As it stands now, you can carry on 9th Street, or other nearby streets, as long as you don't go into the fenced-in Capitol grounds area (or into any of the government buildings). There will be 17 magnetometers to speed up security for those wishing to be on the Capitol grounds, which puts you near the stage. You CAN have a knife with a blade LESS THAN 3 inches. Again, wait for final word on the Capitol grounds gun-ban situation over the weekend.
Every year since 2002, VCDL has come to the General Assembly to peacefully assemble and lobby our elected officials on Martin Luther King Day. The only difference this year is that the crowd size is expected to be significantly larger due to the Democrat leadership's promise to pass draconian gun control laws that would adversely affect law-abiding citizens while having minimal impact on criminals.
The Governor claimed in his Executive Order that there has been credible intelligence gathered suggesting that the purpose of many of the participants in VCDL's Lobby Day is not to peacefully assemble but instead is to foment "violence, rioting, and insurrection." Yet, neither the Governor nor any of his law enforcement has informed VCDL of any of these alleged threats.
The inflammatory rhetoric from Democrats (including the Governor, Attorney General, Congressman McEachin, Delegate Levine, and many others) regarding the Second Amendment Sanctuary movement and VCDL's Lobby Day leads us to wonder if they really want Lobby Day to go peacefully.
The Democrats are afraid of the voters and want to portray this peaceful assembly of law-abiding gun owners in the worst possible way. They would love for it to degenerate to "violence, rioting, and insurrection" in order to smear gun owners. Has the Democrat leadership actually invited violent groups to attend for the purpose of disrupting our peaceful assembly?
SITUATIONAL AWARENESS: There have been many rumors, videos, and articles flying around the internet. We cannot stress enough that this is a peaceful day to assemble and address our Legislature about protecting our right to keep and bear arms. Lobby Day is NOT about statues, flags, racism, sexism, or anything other than protecting the right to keep and bear arms for ALL law-abiding citizens.
Yes, we hold a rally, but the point of the day is communication with our legislators. (Note that a rally is not the same thing as a protest.)
To our knowledge there are no credible threats of violence. That being said, please practice appropriate situational awareness. IF YOU SEE A BAD ACTOR flag down a police officer and point it out. If someone tries to provoke you, smile and walk away. There is probably someone secretly recording the interaction, with the intent of capturing some kind of inappropriate reaction on your part. Don't take the bait. It's not worth the bad press. Again, you might want to notify law enforcement of such bad actors.
The eyes of the nation and the world are on Virginia and VCDL right now and we must show them that gun owners are not the problem. Lead by example. We have been, and continue to be, in close contact with several law enforcement agencies and will keep them informed of all potential threats that we become aware of. Law enforcement will be in abundance at the event, both uniformed and plain clothes, to provide security and we are sincerely appreciative of their efforts to keep everyone as safe as possible.
Hey Ralph N- so, you ban guns from the capital for this rally, and then your going to heavily guard it with armed guards. So, you’re admitting that your gun ban isn’t going to work, and you need firearms for protection??? :ne_nau:
Also, I thought walls don’t work.:nono:
Sorry @Sombeech - this includes no drones, so no filming CW2.

Seeing lots of rumors and reports of ANTIFA thugs being bused in dressed as fake MAGA supporting with the intention of starting fights with “anti-gun” supporters to make the 2A crowd look bad.

“Does the Patriot Act ring a bell?
Does the National Defense Authorization Act ring a bell?
If people show up wearing any kind of uniform, patch or other symbol on their clothing signifying they belong to a militia and something goes wrong, you could/will be held as a domestic terrorist.”
“They have gone out of their way since the Obama years to insure they had us labeled, but it didn't start with Obama. It started with the Patriot Act under the Bush administration.”

“This incident occurred on Saturday, 01.18.2020 at 8:57 in the morning. My husband became a target of the pending Red Flag Law in VA. The reason the police came is due to a visit George made to the Capitol in order to become situationally aware of his surroundings on Lobby Day. His observations and the pictures he took made Capitol police concerned. George was not the only person on Capitol grounds that day. He was not the only person taking pictures either. But George’s size and stature coupled with his purposeful actions made him a target for a dry run on Red Flag laws on a citizen of Virginia. Red Flag Laws have not been legalized in VA at this point.
The police told us they had a tip about George but what we soon discovered was the tip to the police came from the Capitol police itself. The Capitol police saw my husband a threat and then tagged him as a danger. Ten days later the Capitol police, escorted with a State trooper came to our home. We had been rousted at our home on a quiet Saturday morning. Our home which is over a hundred miles from the Capitol and located at a 2nd amendment Sanctuary County.
At this point you should know that one of them was a Capitol police officer and the other was a State Trooper, homicide division. The two officers had their hand on their weapons when my husband stepped out the door to greet them. And the rest you can see on this video. Please share this with anyone who has questions about the Red Flag Laws being proposed. Trump was correct when he said, “they are not after me. They are after you”.”
