Today an estimated (by police) 22,000 people demonstrated at the Virginia capitol in Richmond in favor of Second Amendment rights, which are being threatened by the newly-elected Democratic majority in that state’s legislature. Liberal news outlets were hoping the rally would turn violent, and their disappointment when it didn’t was palpable.(Snip for graphics)The Babylon Bee headlines: “Media Offers Thoughts And Prayers That Someone Would Start Some Violence At Gun Rights Rally.”
Somber members of the press offered their thoughts and prayers that someone would start some violence at the gun rights rally in Virginia today.

Some people estimated up to 35000 showed up.
Press really bummed it was peaceful.

Motive is everything.
What was motive for those who peacefully assembled?
What is the motive when an Antifa group get involved in anything?

Question: “Why is it that when Democrats take control of a legislative body, they instinctively move to confiscate legally-owned firearms from law-abiding citizens, in violation of the Second Amendment?”
Answer: So they, who know better than the bitter clingers, will always stay in control, making our lives miserable.

It was delightful to see the TERROR raised by the dems/media completely dispelled. The liberal narrative is that when all these armed people get together, they cannot help themselves but be violent.
The secondary TERRORIST narrative of racism and white supremacy was also blown out of the water by the Blacks in attendance, also armed, and happily walking around to assert THEIR rights and in complete accord with everyone around them.
We can be reasonably assured that THESE people will likely be voting for Trump and Republicans. Thanks dem/media for clearly demonstrating that you are NOT on the side of the People and that you will use TERROR to get your way and attempt to turn the People against each other.
When the groups that dems/media support, BLM, Antifa, ..., gather, they riot, destroy things, and assault people. Their tools are lies, terror, bats, 2x4s, pipes, arson, etc.
When non liberal groups gather, they are peaceful and good natured even though they are passionate about their rights. Our tools are truth, conversation, persuasion, and the ballot box.

I love the Babylon Bee! I was just saying to myself how the leftist MSM must be so disappointed that no violence occurred at the rally-there was even footage of a probable Antifa infiltrator urging violence only to be shouted down and publicly discredited-when I see the article in the Bee! Know who else is massively disappointed there was no violence ? Gov. Northam.

I fully expected some Soros-backed, anti-American idiots would cap off a few rounds and blame it on the patriots. They missed an opportunity or maybe they realized that they would get caught in the hoax like they do every other time.

Time now for a recall election, to get Northam out of office before he does any more damage!

Such a beautiful, peaceful, diverse, and SAFE rally.
Democrats are weeping in their lattes this morning.

The NRA needs to find "Mark from Northern Virginia" and hire him to do some commercials. Well spoken, good on his feet, and sensible. Well done, Mark.
Well done, all you Virginia patriots! You make us all proud, and scared off the antifa thugs. You probably also terrified the Governor and his evil minions, too.

#5, if it is the video I saw I'd say it was more of a misunderstanding from a confused 'libertarian' trying to win some half butt street debate. None of the usual black masked 'warriors' were there. Not one. I did see something about 2 guys attempting to photograph some spent casing one of them threw on the ground, but too many people immediately cell phoned the fiasco for it to go anywhere. Sure would be interested in the whole story about that. Who was it, where was it, when was it and what was the idea behind it. That sure seems like a fake news lie, but no details so who knows?
