It would be worth documenting names of LE for future use.

I've been to rallies in Annapolis, MD. No fences. No armored vehicles. No chokepoints.

Here is Matt Bracken's essay on the event as a trap.

“The Richmond Killbox”

Ridiculous. Any violence, if there is any, will occur outside the box, and be instigated by lefties. The VCDL Lobby Day has been pleasant and peaceful in the past, and law enforcement has been friendly towards our attendees. While it’s true Coonman Northam has talked of insurrection, the law knows who to watch for instigating violence. I suspect the biggest violence might be antifa trying to set some busses on fire or breaking the windows out of Starbucks. There might be a few isolated fights, but all this fear of a “buffalo jump” is coming from some people getting the vapors because of media hype hoping for a dramatic news story.

Why's to stop the crowd from tearing their fence down and making another gate ?
It'd be a get time for the cops to have a "Sick-Out" !

There has been rumors of Soros hiring some thugs to cause trouble. Police have arrested a Canadian who was coming down for the rally with his gun. He is part of a group called the Base.

The Gov already listed the targets.

Broad brushes all around.

They need to go to each county commissioner and ask to join WV....

Richmond rally is a waste of time and most likely a trap...

Sound wisdom from Matt!

1. 2nd A. supporters need to control the narrative.

2. 2nd A. supporters will not control the narrative in Richmond.

I don’t get the “10% of the prevailing vote to 25%.” What’s the “prevailing” vote?
