I'm not sure where the protesters will gather. Access is via a very busy and fast but narrow road without shoulders (Waples Mill Road). There is no "greensward" on the NRA's side of the street. The parking lots are offset from the building in such a way that anyone congregating there in addition to breaking the law will not be in front of the building or visible from the road. Furthermore, there is no way to "surround" the building or march around it. It abuts impassible terrain on 3 sides. You could march "through" it and end up in the parking garage, I suppose. But no one could see you there and you would be tresspassing.

It is a very cleverly designed structure.

You, sir have provided an excellent tactical analysis of the NRA HQ complex. Not demonstrator friendly.

I reread the thread & apparently the lefties have targeted the NRA lobbying offices in downtown D.C., not the headquarters in VA. Easier target, IMO.
