Possibly up to 40,000 people tomorrow. I hope you guys brought enough bacon for everyone.

40000 people, damn that'd be awesome to see.

Here's the latest from VCDL. Emphasis is mine. Must be nice to be governor, so you can just make shit up.

Quick notes on Lobby Day:

• Check any parking reservations you have - we've had reports of some garages deciding to close on Monday. We want Lobby Day to be peaceful.
• However, if you see any one either being violent or threatening, find a police officer immediately (there will be a lot of them) and let them nip it in the bud.
• Be sure to bring one or two bottles of water to prevent dehydration.
  You'll be standing in cold, dry air for several hours.
• The Governor modified his executive order on the state of emergency to make it a Class 1 misdemeanor if someone violates the "no weapons" on the Capitol grounds.
  Only significant if someone were to slip a weapon by security, I would guess.
• The rally and Lobby Day will both officially end at 12 noon.
• WRVA will be live-streaming the rally live and the John Fredericks show should be covering Lobby Day all day.

I’m thinking 10K would be huge. I have heard figures up to 100,000 thrown out by the MSM over the last 48 hrs but I’m not buying that. If that were the case half would be in the local area now.

Yeah wouldn’t that be more like the 4th Reich or something along those lines?

NBC News Reporter: Virginia Second Amendment Rally a ‘White Nationalist Rally’

.
On Sunday NBC News reporter Ben Collins let everyone know he will cover the January 20, Virginia Second Amendment rally, and he described it as a “white nationalist rally.”

Collins tweeted:

Reporters covering tomorrow's white nationalist rally in Virginia, I'm absolutely begging you:

Verify information before you send it out tomorrow, even if it's a very sensational rumor you heard from a cop.

Don't become a hero in neo-Nazi propaganda circles with made-up stuff.

— Ben Collins (@oneunderscore__) January 19, 2020

Collins’ claims are very similar to claims and intimations made by the Washington Post, Michael Bloomberg-funded Moms Demand Action, and Gov. Ralph Northam (D).

The Post previewed the rally by focusing on various self-declared militia members who are coming in from other states to attend the rally, carefully noting that the militia members who pledged to never return to Charlottesville while armed made no such pledge regarding Richmond, the location of Monday’s rally.

Moms Demand Action issued a release describing Second Amendment Sanctuary resolutions as “lawless” and describing supporters of such resolutions as “gun extremists.”

Northam claimed “violent rhetoric” has been tied to the rally, although he did not give details about the rhetoric. He did, however, use the claim of “violent rhetoric’ to justify issuing a “state of emergency” and subsequent gun ban on Virginia Capitol grounds.

The rally is part of Lobby Day, which the Virginia Citizens Defense League (VCDL) has sponsored every year since 2oo3. VCDL’s Philip Van Cleave told CNN his group has been coming to the state Capitol every January since 2003 without incident.
