On Martin Luther King day, 2nd amendment defenders, many of them armed, marched on the Capitol in Richmond, Virginia. They wanted to let Governor Ralph Northam and the Democrat majority legislature know that they would not comply with the gun-control laws they consider unconstitutional.
Democrats cause the problem
After the Democrat election victories in November in Virginia, one draconian bill, SB16, was introduced which will designate shotguns that hold more than seven shells and other long guns with certain features as assault weapons.
Handguns that meet certain criteria would be considered assault weapons, too. If the bill becomes law, it will be illegal to own or possess these weapons. Many Virginians will become criminals when and if this bill passes.
In response, the majority of Virginia’s counties have become 2nd Amendment sanctuaries where the sheriff’s say they won’t enforce unconstitutional gun laws.
Senate Bill 16 was struck from consideration and “died” in committee last week, but three more gun-control laws just passed the Virginia Senate last Thursday.
Governor declares a state of emergency
Governor Northam, in anticipation of violence at the rally, declared a state of emergency and banned guns around the Capitol. Thousands of armed citizens remained outside the cordons.
Fearmongering MSNBC and CNN
The mainstream media spent a lot of on-air time trying to portray the rally as a racist event. They all but told their viewers that the rally would turn into another “Charlottesville,” with armed violence.
MSNBC and CNN ran many stories asserting that there were thousands of white nationalists, militias, extremists, far-right extremists and white supremacists “swarming” the state capitol.
But at the end of the day, their fearmongering fell flat as the armed protestors were not violent. In fact, the whole rally was law-abiding and peaceful. Was the media really worried or were they hoping for violence?

No violence at the rally, Democrats disappointed
The Associated Press reported: “that the rally concluded uneventfully and the mood was largely festive. An estimated 22,000 people attended, authorities told AP, and one woman was arrested on a felony charge of wearing a mask in public.”
According to the Washington Post, there was almost no sign of counter-protests, and no appearance of Antifa was reported.

if you are not eating much fiber, then you will always get indigestion. so eat lots of dietary fibers**

Hi there, I think your web site could be having web browser compatibility problems. When I take a look at your web site in Safari, it looks fine however, if opening in IE, it’s got some overlapping issues. I simply wanted to give you a quick heads up! Besides that, excellent blog!
I’m impressed, I must say. Rarely do I encounter a blog that’s both equally educative and interesting, and let me tell you, you have hit the nail on the head. The issue is something that too few people are speaking intelligently about. I’m very happy I stumbled across this in my search for something concerning this.
very easy to understand explanation. fits me perfectly. from now on I will be your fan
You really make it seem so easy with your presentation but I find this matter to be really something which I think I would never understand. It seems too complicated and very broad for me. I’m looking forward for your next post, I will try to get the hang of it!
your writing really helped me I know what steps to take.
you can get some free catalogs over the internet easily if you just search on google**
The subsequent time I read a weblog, I hope that it doesnt disappoint me as a lot as this one. I imply, I know it was my option to read, but I really thought youd have one thing interesting to say. All I hear is a bunch of whining about one thing that you might fix when you werent too busy on the lookout for attention.
I love reading your site.
This is a great blog.
I noticed one of your pages have a 404 error.
Great news once again!
