https://www.cnn.com/2020/01/20/politics/virginia-gun-rights-rally-richmond/index.htmlA large gun-rights rally in Virginia's state capital unfolded peacefully Monday despite earlier fears of the kind of violence that took place in nearby Charlottesville three years ago.
Security was tight as gun-rights advocates descended on Richmond for "Lobby Day" to oppose legislation that would restrict access to firearms in the state. The commonwealth braced for the potential of extremist and white nationalist groups to disrupt the peaceful demonstrations with violence and riots, and the state's Democratic governor, Ralph Northam, declared a temporary state of emergency last week to ban open and concealed firearms and other weapons from the state capitol grounds.The crowd, however, was peaceful, with no immediate reports of violence. One person was arrested with one felony count of wearing a mask in public. A 21-year-old woman was arrested and charged after having been warned two times not to wear a bandana over her face and then arrested when an officer saw her wearing it a third time, police said.About 22,000 people attended the rally, according to the Virginia Division of Capitol Police. That includes about 6,000 people in the official rally area and 16,000 outside.Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam, a Democrat, welcomed the fact that the day passed without serious incident."Thousands of people came to Richmond to make their voices heard. Today showed that when people disagree, they can do so peacefully," Northam said in a statement. "The issues before us evoke strong emotions, and progress is often difficult. I will continue to listen to the voices of Virginians, and I will continue to do everything in my power to keep our Commonwealth safe."In addition to the people on the capitol grounds, there was a large group outside the fenced area, which was not under the ban on weapons and is an open carry area. They were chanting "Northam out" and outnumbered the group on the capitol grounds. There was a heavy police presence among this crowd, and law enforcement could also be seen on the rooftops, providing extra security to the area.Several protesters brandished rifles and held signs extolling gun rights."We came unarmed ... this time," one read. "Patriots unite! They ban, we fight," read another.petition was circulating calling for Northam's recall, an effort unlikely to succeed given that it would require the signatures of hundreds of thousands of registered Virginia voters to trigger a court process.Manny Vega of Richmond, who was outside the secured area, said he and his fellow protesters were "here to represent every citizen here that wants to keep the right to bear arms."Authorities would not immediately give estimates on the crowd size. But some streets surrounding the capitol grounds, several of which were closed ahead of the event, were packed with protesters.Speakers at the event concluded their remarks around noon, and crowds began dispersing shortly afterwards.09/15/1998 & 09/16/1998, Mansfield, MA; 08/29/00 08/30/00, Mansfield, MA; 07/02/03, 07/03/03, Mansfield, MA; 09/28/04, 09/29/04, Boston, MA; 09/22/05, Halifax, NS; 05/24/06, 05/25/06, Boston, MA; 07/22/06, 07/23/06, Gorge, WA; 06/27/2008, Hartford; 06/28/08, 06/30/08, Mansfield; 08/18/2009, O2, London, UK; 10/30/09, 10/31/09, Philadelphia, PA; 05/15/10, Hartford, CT; 05/17/10, Boston, MA; 05/20/10, 05/21/10, NY, NY; 06/22/10, Dublin, IRE; 06/23/10, Northern Ireland; 09/03/11, 09/04/11, Alpine Valley, WI; 09/11/11, 09/12/11, Toronto, Ont; 09/14/11, Ottawa, Ont; 09/15/11, Hamilton, Ont; 07/02/2012, Prague, Czech Republic; 07/04/2012 & 07/05/2012, Berlin, Germany; 07/07/2012, Stockholm, Sweden; 09/30/2012, Missoula, MT; 07/16/2013, London, Ont; 07/19/2013, Chicago, IL; 10/15/2013 & 10/16/2013, Worcester, MA; 10/21/2013 & 10/22/2013, Philadelphia, PA; 10/25/2013, Hartford, CT; 11/29/2013, Portland, OR; 11/30/2013, Spokane, WA; 12/04/2013, Vancouver, BC; 12/06/2013, Seattle, WA; 10/03/2014, St. Louis.

I don’t think I said they are the same...Just because you don’t like answers doesn’t mean they weren’t provided. Why don’t you go out there and ask one of them next time? They seem very peaceful and environmentally friendly. They actually were picking up trash instead of trashing the city...like “some”.Halifax2TheMax said:

Do you walk around all tricked out? Do you feel it’s necessary to prove you support the 2A? I’m just trying to understand why gun nutters feel the need to dress as if they’re invading Faluja to get their point across that they support the 2A. Is that the kind of society you want to live in where a significant part of the population feels like they have to strap an AR15 across their chest to go to the supermarket?PJPOWER said:

https://www.cnn.com/2020/01/20/politics/virginia-gun-rights-rally-richmond/index.htmlA large gun-rights rally in Virginia's state capital unfolded peacefully Monday despite earlier fears of the kind of violence that took place in nearby Charlottesville three years ago.
Security was tight as gun-rights advocates descended on Richmond for "Lobby Day" to oppose legislation that would restrict access to firearms in the state. The commonwealth braced for the potential of extremist and white nationalist groups to disrupt the peaceful demonstrations with violence and riots, and the state's Democratic governor, Ralph Northam, declared a temporary state of emergency last week to ban open and concealed firearms and other weapons from the state capitol grounds.The crowd, however, was peaceful, with no immediate reports of violence. One person was arrested with one felony count of wearing a mask in public. A 21-year-old woman was arrested and charged after having been warned two times not to wear a bandana over her face and then arrested when an officer saw her wearing it a third time, police said.About 22,000 people attended the rally, according to the Virginia Division of Capitol Police. That includes about 6,000 people in the official rally area and 16,000 outside.Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam, a Democrat, welcomed the fact that the day passed without serious incident."Thousands of people came to Richmond to make their voices heard. Today showed that when people disagree, they can do so peacefully," Northam said in a statement. "The issues before us evoke strong emotions, and progress is often difficult. I will continue to listen to the voices of Virginians, and I will continue to do everything in my power to keep our Commonwealth safe."In addition to the people on the capitol grounds, there was a large group outside the fenced area, which was not under the ban on weapons and is an open carry area. They were chanting "Northam out" and outnumbered the group on the capitol grounds. There was a heavy police presence among this crowd, and law enforcement could also be seen on the rooftops, providing extra security to the area.Several protesters brandished rifles and held signs extolling gun rights."We came unarmed ... this time," one read. "Patriots unite! They ban, we fight," read another.petition was circulating calling for Northam's recall, an effort unlikely to succeed given that it would require the signatures of hundreds of thousands of registered Virginia voters to trigger a court process.Manny Vega of Richmond, who was outside the secured area, said he and his fellow protesters were "here to represent every citizen here that wants to keep the right to bear arms."Authorities would not immediately give estimates on the crowd size. But some streets surrounding the capitol grounds, several of which were closed ahead of the event, were packed with protesters.Speakers at the event concluded their remarks around noon, and crowds began dispersing shortly afterwards.
And no, but you did make a comparison. Apples and oranges. “Guns save lives.”

There's the gun lobby for you, helping to make "responsible" gun owners even more "responsible." Either that or you have gun nutter legislators in the show me state.
Court records show that Swift had two weapons charges in 2016 and 2017. The 2016 charge was for for unlawful use of a weapon and marijuana possession, according to court records. Swift was charged in 2017 with unlawful concealed carry, which could have revoked his probation on the previous charge and increased his chances of going to prison, Mike Mansur, Jackson County Prosecutor spokesman told CNN.
However, the second charge came as Missouri legislators approved measures that permitted concealed weapons being carried without a permit.
