A Guy In A Trump Shirt Carried A Gun Outside Of A Virginia Polling Place

[Danascot]

WASHINGTON ― A man wearing a Donald Trump shirt and carrying a weapon stood outside a voting location in Loudoun County, Virginia, on Friday. Authorities in the nation’s richest county are apparently OK with that.

Erika Cotti encountered the man when she went to vote at the county’s registrar’s office, she told The Huffington Post. Virginia doesn’t have early voting per se, but voters can cast in-person absentee ballots for a host of reasons, like if they’re going to be out of the county or city on Election Day.

“I had my 9-year-old son with me. I felt intimidated,” Cotti said. “And I had to explain to my 9-year-old why a man with a 357 magnum is standing outside the polling station.”

5. If enough people complained -- and not just to the police, but to local elected officials. . .

and made a demand each time that LEOs had to come out and escort them into the polling place, because they didn't feel safe, I believe law enforcement would find a pretext for moving this guy along.
