PleaseBlitz Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 I'm sure a fair number of them are going to bring their guns in violation of the law, and then also claim to all be "law abiding gun owners" because the law, to these people, is whatever they want it to be. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Springfield Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 I feel like Northam has drawn undue attention to this rally by declaring a state of emergency. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, there is a REALLY high probability of violence on Monday. There have already been arrests of people that were planing on going and intentionally inciting violence, the dumb**** in the White House is egging them on, a significant number of people that have announced they'll be going are literally banned from Charlottesville, so they have a history of being involved in violence at similar events, and the main organizers of the rally (the Virginia Citizens Defense League) are already saying they have no control over anything that happens and the blame should go to law enforcement if they [ law enforcement] aren't able to prevent violence: Quote “The frustrating thing to me is, if something does happen, that’ll be all people talk about,” Van Cleave said. “My view is, we have no control. We’re telling police everything we know about and trusting them to do their job.” So basically, the VCDL organizes an event that is going to bring several thousand armed gun nuts to Richmond, and now they are claiming, in advance, that they are not responsible for whatever happens. That doesn't sound too good. If Northam didn't declare a SOE and then there is violence, he'd get (rightfully) pilloried. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully this gives him the resources to lock down any embarrassing tragedies before they happen. biggest mistake was not taking the Charlottesville protests seriously enough.

Larry Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 Kinda hard to argue that a declaration is wrong, for an event at which multiple gun nut militias, and Antifa, have announced in advance that they will be there, armed. How extreme would they have to be, to be clearly excessive? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larry Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 Well, the good news is, I think history says things will be peaceful. The impression I have is that violence at these things, while certainly possible, is the exception. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmirOfShmo Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 As a longtime RVA resident (DC born & raised) I'm not looking forward to this. If you've never been to downtown RVA, it's really not built for large numbers of people (especially around the capital building). Which probably means people spread out all over downtown. It will also cause police to be spread out all over, too. I haven't seen a map of where the various groups plan to go (if there's even some kind of a plan). If people stray into the wrong areas, it could get very, very ugly. There are some rough areas around there where outsiders could find a very unpleasant welcome.

Just fantasizing, but it would be OK with me if the "take away" from this thing would be the locals telling a bunch of "militia" to go back to Wisconsin or wherever they're from, and take over a wildlife refuge. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe the guard or police Northam called up can give them a attitude adjustment while taking out the trash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stoshuaj Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 Friend of ours just got here from Richmond for a couple day “vacation” at her company’s advisement and blessing for all their employees. Potential for more to follow which is ok by us. Plenty of room for a proverbial Richmond refugee camp. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGreatBuzz Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 I think we need to rename this thread. Maybe an all inclusive white nationalist thread. Or at least a generic white nationalist gathering thread. Something besides just Charlottesville. Thoughts? @No Excuses Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
