Virginia governor declares state of emergency following militia threats over gun reforms

Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam issued a state of emergency on Wednesday that bars any weapons from the Richmond’s Capitol Square from Friday to Tuesday, after he received credible intelligence that hate groups and armed militias are planning violence at next Monday’s Lobby Day against gun control legislation.

Northam, who discussed the threats at a news conference, said the state’s law enforcement analysis found that the chatter on the internet and other venues mirrored similar messages seen around the time of the 2017 Charlottesville "Unite the Right" rally, which left three dead and more than 30 injured

The governor declined to give exact details about the threats and the persons making them, but said that these groups, who were coming from outside of the state, talked about storming the Virginia Capitol.

Oh! Oh! He's in BIG trouble now...

The NRA will probably get out of the fetal position and write their typical "bowl-of-mush" article about the situation...

Are you kidding? It would have NEVER gotten that far. Jamestown would have forever been known as Siouxville.

He’s looking to disarm the 2A side so that his Antifa goons can cause pain. Total repeat of Charlottesville. Cops will pull back at the last minute and all the reporters will follow the narrative.

Why do the people always have to converge on the State House.

Northam planned on kicking in the doors of Virginians, perhaps they should pay a visit to his home instead.

Every day until he resigns.

George Soros is probably engineering a false flag shooting as we speak. Will Soros' puppet put Confederate flags and Trump banners in the background of his selfies?

If it’s a well regulated militia their right to bear arms shall not be infringed. I hope they are well regulated.

He has many many guns protecting him and his henchpersons. Don’t forget that.

Northam *wants* a confrontation so he can mobilize his goon squad.

I've been saying the same for years. Forget capitol demonstrations. Gather across the street or down the street and show him who he's facing.

Expect other such absurdities leading into the Senate trial where MSM will have a captive audience since impeachments don’t happen that often.

He should not be given the opportunity to resign.

See post #48.
