Yeah, but what does it say about Virginia that shit-stirrers have to be imported? At least one of the dudes is deportable.
Sh*t stirrers don't have to be imported.
They will, in their quest for attention, (or to get the attention they are paid to get to change the optics of an event) gravitate toward any high profile event, because that's where the cameras and microphones are.
That the MSM would congregate around the most ridiculous of the opposition (to their Master's agenda) is a given, so they can present those opposed to the totalitarian agenda as wacko extremists, rather than ordinary workaday folks who simply have a strong desire to retain their God given (and Constitutionally protected) Rights.
There are a lot of ordinary folks who don't want their Right to own their means to self defense compromised, who don't want things they have already invested 4 figures in stripped from them without compensation, and who do not want to live under the constant threat of being hauled off and imprisoned for something so minor as an empty magazine. The media will go to great lengths to NOT portray these people as ordinary nor sane, but will do all in their power to make them look like crackpots and maniacs--IOW, a threat to the safety of those who don't know anything about firearms.
Reading comments on websites where hand-wringers were asserting Magpul was handing out ammunition, when they were only giving away (empty) magazines indicates the level of ignorance and misinformation already whirling around the issue.
