What’s one big difference between the left and the right?
Tens of thousands of armed, angry right-wingers hold a political rally, and there’s no violence, just one minor arrest – and they leave the place cleaner than they found it.
Right-wing scum!
A gun-rights rally in Richmond that brought thousands of people from across the country to protest a push by Virginia Democrats for comprehensive gun control ended peacefully without any major incidents.
This is despite the legacy media trying to play up scare-stories of violence and “far-right fascists”, for all they were worth.
Threats of violence had escalated in the days leading up to Monday’s demonstration following reports that white supremacists, armed militia and other extremist groups were planning to attend.
Gov. Ralph Northam, a Democrat, had declared a state of emergency late last week and beefed up security around the Capitol…
The president of the Virginia Citizens Defense League – the nonprofit organizer of the rally – told Fox News that it wasn’t the pro-gun groups who had been stoking fear of potential violence at the event.
“It’s the Democrats,” Philip Van Cleave said. “It’s almost like they want something to happen. It sounds crazy, but they keep doing it and you have to start wondering if that’s intentional.”
Get a few dozen left-wingers like Antifa together and, like all bullies and thugs, they start to feel all big and brave with their mates around them. Violence inevitably follows. Along with dozens of arrests. The sole arrest out of these 20 000 gun-totin’ far-right fascists was for…a bandana.
The Joint Information Center, made up of representatives from the Capitol, Richmond and Virginia State Police, estimated 6,000 people were allowed into a fenced-in area of Capitol Square.
They estimated another 16,000 were outside the gates, though event organizers said many more had turned out. Many of those outside the barrier carried long firearms and wore bright orange stickers that read “Guns Save Lives.”
Capitol Police said a 21-year-old woman had been arrested and charged with one felony count of wearing a mask in public. Law enforcement said they warned the woman twice to remove a bandana covering her face but she had refused.

Even worse than their deliberate, provocative law-abiding peacefulness, these fascists actually picked up their garbage!
Protesters in support of the Second Amendment sought to leave Richmond, Virginia cleaner than they found it this morning.
Video from WSET reporter Caroline Eaker shows demonstrators collecting garbage in plastic bags.
The man called it “a birthday present for Ralph Northam,” the commonwealth’s governor.
That stands in stark contrast to the self-declared environmentalists who take to the streets.
