Which is why they should call off the rally.
Agree. If I had planned to go I would not be going because of Antifas involvement.
No, they need to rally in disparate locations with many smaller flash mobs, malls, Walmart parking lots, other parks, etc., demonstrate for 15 minutes and move to another spot.
Stay out of the kill box set up by the state.
That would be a defeat because the liberals would crow that no one cared enough to show up for the pro 2A rally. What MUST be done is that everyone show up with cameras running and PREVENT the bad actors from starting trouble by refusing to be baited. If their is to be violence, let it be started by the liberal plants and then STOPPED by the pro 2A people who hold them for the police. Get everything on video and get a photo of the ID of everyone who starts trouble.
NSA let it go on. Just don’t show up. Let ANTIFA burn Richmond down to the ground. Either that or get 20 well armed people to intercept the buses. Rope-a-dope!
I'm afraid it is too late for that. People are already arriving in Richmond today.
Some won't get the word.
All we can do, as patriotic Americans, is pray to the Lord and ask for a peaceful protest.
Another thing activists can do publicize this now, BEFORE it happens, so the Deep State DNCMedia can't say it was a spontaneous act of right-wing violence.
Declare your commitment to both gun rights and non-violence. Keep talking about it. Sunlight is the best disinfectant.
False flag will happen anyway. Hitler used the shooting of a Nazi official in Paris for Kristallanacht. He used prison inmates to play the part of marauders attacking the town of Gleiwitz as an excuse to invade Poland. Challenging tyrants is an iffy business, especially when the media works hand in hand with them.
No, but the pro 2nd amendment people should shift their tactics. They can send a carefully selected delegation to the state house. That delegation should consist of politicians, members of law enforcement, and lawyers.
Everyone else should plan on multiple demonstrations at locations all around Richmond and the rest of the state. Places like highway overpasses, shopping center entrances, police stations, and other visible public locations. Those demonstrations should be planned today, and not publicly announced to avoid counter protests and disruptions.
Groups of planned protests all over that are moving and maneuvering are more effective at getting the message out.
A few thousand demonstrators could just decide to visit every Starbucks in the area in groups of twenty or thirty, or converge on a few major points of interest at selected times. Use mobility, surprise, and lots of flags and signs.
THEY WANT THAT TOO!
