A chaotic scene erupted at Capitol Square on Saturday when competing rallies drew a few hundred people on opposite sides of the political spectrum.
An End Sanctuary Cities Rally, organized by the Corey Stewart for Governor campaign this week, was quickly countered by one organized by ICE Out of RVA, a local group committed to keeping federal immigration authorities out of the city.
The afternoon protest was noisy, but not violent, as the ICE out of RVA protesters tried to drown out the speeches of the Stewart rally.
Some supporters of Stewart carried guns and got close to the line of Capitol police officers separating the two groups. And some protesters shouted in the faces of the other side, banging drums, hurling expletives at Stewart and chanting racists, go home and immigrants are welcome here.

Thanks Roberts SCOTUS for the Heller decision. I am certain that this is exactly what the framers intended.

To quote Pelosi, "It's almost pathetic."

(42,641 posts)6. It is pathetic that some feel carrying a gun is a way to win an argument.
The Brownshirts felt that way also.
As does the KKK. Just ask Jefferson Beauregard Robert E Lee Sessions the 3rd.

(841 posts)8. Is there a reason to come heavily armed to a political rally?
I guess you could be worried about violence but showing up brandishing weapons seems outlandishly provocative to me.

I mean, seriously. These knuckle-draggers woke up thrilled that they were going to go out flashing their guns, only to realize they're just as impotent as ever.
Sad!
She, however, is empowered by truth and morality.
