Open-carry is legal in VA. Was anyone “on the right” prosecuted for carrying weapons?
I use scare quotes because the entire rally was organized by OWS leftists that nobody on the right had ever heard of. There were no good guys attending, just Antifa and White Supremacists. Proud Boys told their people to stay away, didn’t come close to the rally, yet somehow still became the face of the event.
There is a difference between legal carry and brandishing. Dwayne Dixon admitted he brandished a firearm at James Fields. This was ignored by law enforcement.
