Virginia’s Democrat Governor is getting quite alarmed at the fact that militia groups plan to march in Richmond in a few days. Gov. Ralph Northam issued an executive order on Wednesday that declares “a state of emergency due to potential civil unrest at the Virginia state capitol”
The January 20th’s “Lobby Day” protests are a demonstration against the state’s congress expected vote on a number of incredibly unpopular anti-gun laws. The rally had been planned as an open carry event and a massive turnout is expected.
“Credible intelligence gathered by Virginia’s law enforcement agencies indicates that tens of thousands of advocates plan to converge on Capitol Square for events culminating on January 20, 2020,” Northam wrote in the order.
“Available information suggests that a substantial number of these demonstrators are expected to come from outside the Commonwealth, may be armed, and have as their purpose not peaceful assembly but violence, rioting, and insurrection.”

Northam should be nervous.
Thos Nazi tactics.in America.
Very proud that they’re exercising their 2nd Amendment rights. The Right To Bear Arms. This would not even be happening if the Governor wasn’t trying to strip them of Their Rights. Democrats want the control of The People. Here is a good example of the difference between a Republican and Democrat on guns.
REPUBLICAN: I don’t really care for guns. I’m not interested to have one. But, if you like them, that’s fine, but it’s just not for me.
DEMOCRAT: I don’t like guns. I’m not going to have one. So, since I don’t like them, you can’t like or have one. They should all be taken away from everyone.
…and I hope no one comes from the outside in defense of the Governor..
What happen to majority rules..it looks like the majority doesn’t want these Laws..so stop trying to destroy the Constitution and OBEY the People for a change !
I would like to see President Trump have at least one more term. In his second term, there will need to be something done to keep the democrats from blocking the projects he proposes.
I hope they shoot ALL YOU COMMIE BASTARDS
Northam is a commie pig.
The Governor seems a tad paranoid. Or perhaps he is.judging those assembled by liberal protests that turn violent. Conservatives have. not done that. They make their point peacefully, although perhaps noisy, and leave. Nor do they leave the area strewn with trash as the liberals do. MAN UP, GOVERNOR, and meet these people face to face, or are you in fact, chicken s**t?
They planned to do no such thing. But Governor Dumbass declaring a state of emergency has now made it much more likely. And he has also made it likely that outraged Ubuntu’s rights activists from other states will be visiting Richmond. Way to go, dumbass.
The man is a fool! He will be totally responsible for anything that happens with his openly defiant position as it pertains to the 2nd. Amendment of our constitution
Anyone who follows social media knows that antifa will be “storming the capitol”.
They became aware of the second amendment protesters and decided to join them and try to blend in.
The outcome is anybody’s guess. My guess is that antifa will stir up trouble and run…
Leaving the peaceful protesters to be arrested.
