If Trump were actually behind the protesters, he would cancel that FAA declaration.

Hey gasoline can be used to make weapons! How about a law restricting purchases to one gallon a week?

“... and restore local governments’ right to ban weapons from public buildings and other venues.”


Just a quibble over language used. Governments don’t have rights, they have powers. The people have rights.

I've no idea, other than a spidey sense saying this is a fustercluck in the making.

What I DO know is that sooner or later these antifascist @holes have got to be stopped, one way or another.

The rally in Richmond has all the hallmarks of a set-up. Yes, the current government has far overstepped the bounds of the rule of law and are deeply within the current flowing towards full tyranny. Yes, the people have a right to object to and protest this abuse of liberty and freedom. Unfortunately, the state government, the liars in the media, and the paid provocateurs lurking behind the scenes have control of the situation on the ground and will manipulate this situation to manufacture the optics they want to create.

I lived through the Ferguson riots and saw how these despicable people act. Ferguson has not been in the national news for a long time. Why? Because the good guys won. Unlike Baltimore and other places that have been subjected to these attacks on the freedom of the individual, Ferguson is recovering nicely from the assaults of five years ago. Why was Ferguson not destroyed by these Alinskyite attacks? The amount of prayer cover over this city was astronomical.

The evil players in the unfolding Richmond saga are expecting this battle to go according to their script. Their plan is for freedom-loving and defending citizens to walk into a trap that will provide the opportunity for a horrific false-flag attack. Don’t give them that victory. While I am very aware of the overall tactics of Alinsky disciples, I know nothing about the specifics of the city of Richmond. However, I am confident that there are a large number of Bible-believing churches (not liberation theology, SJW fronts) in the Richmond area.

The best, on-the-fly reaction to the steps taken by the unfortunately legally elected government of Virginia is to switch the rally from being held in the Northam-devised kill box to the various churches, coffee shops, hotel lobbies, and other sites in the area. I saw God do things that were impossible for the good citizens of Ferguson to do and the results were amazing. God loves Richmond just as much as He does Ferguson and, if His people will ask, He will provide incredible answers.

Multiple gatherings of Bible-believing, God-trusting patriots, in diverse places away from the pre-planned targeted area, will produce a countermove to Northam’s evil plans in such a way that the country will be astounded. By all means, go to Richmond and make your voices heard. Just don’t walk into a pre-planned kill zone. Join with other believers (Where two or more are gathered in my Name, I am there, too) and ask God to intervene in ways you cannot. You will witness miracles.

Perhaps every group attending should display their CCW permits when they meet up. Then they stick together knowing that they’re among the verified good guys.

Somehow, I doubt antifa has CCW permits being that they’re a bunch of criminals.

Just a thought.

At this point it's fair to surmise the ballot box has been compromised.

Capitol grounds fenced in. One way in and two ways out, all on the same street. I see a killing field.

A well armed society is a polite society

there is no greater truism

Look at all these Democrat hellhole cities, where they ban weapons via the Sullivan law and all kinds of other garbage

Hundreds of murders each year by firearms

Most committed by well-known criminals

Go figure

The leftists need to institute stop, interrogate and frisk in their Urban Utopias to help sop up the illegal guns they continue to allow to flourish.

Just remember if you worry about things like this- that we now live in a world where everybody has a video camera-a high definition one ! connected to the Internet at all times !!!

every single person has this !

therefore the left is not going to be able to get away with anything like they used to , because if anybody tries anything - it will all be on video tape ; any instigation ; anybody playing to any kind of crap or causing trouble which Is all the left knows how to do

A telling example of this is the Covington Catholic incident

Despite there being videotaped to the contrary that was widely available immediately, The left still tried to demonize this kid ! ; still tried to put words in his mouth that he did not speak !! still tried to lie about him for days and days and days on the media!!!

And here we are not even a year later and what do we see?

That excellent attorney has already gotten settlements from CNN in the tens of millions of dollars !!!

so this is what’s going to happen to this leftist media cabal that has had their way for many decades

“I see a killing field”

Nobody will be able to get a rifle within a mile of the place.

“VA DOESN’T DO IMPEACHMENT”

What Virginia doesn’t have is the ability to recall elected state officials.
In Virginia elected officials CAN be impeached. However since the dems control both houses no dem will be impeached.

#8 is particularly important. Identify the Antifa goons early. Get pics and video of them AND the vehicles used. Both will be useful later. If (when) violence breaks out the people who put up the money for them can be sued as accessories.

Or for other reasons.

If the 2A people were smart they would stay outside the box and let Antifa in. Then lock the doors.

Anyone who joins Antifa at this tinderbox is going to get what they deserve.

There are no clean Antifa hands. Don't be foolish. Stay away.
