A diverse gathering of pro-gun protestors set to descend upon Virginia’s capital on Monday could include an unlikely ally, a local antifa group.

In what Vice called a “bizarre meeting of the minds,” Richmond-based Antifa Seven Hills also strongly opposes the gun measures now likely to become law since Democrats won control of both Virginia houses last year, and they too want Democratic leaders in Richmond to know.

“I think it’s been pretty important for us to focus on the fact that gun control in America has a legacy of racist enforcement,” an Antifa Seven Hills spokesperson called James, a self-identified anarchist who withheld his real name for fear of getting doxxed, told Vice. “Like taking guns away from black people, because black people were perceived as a threat to property and the sanctity of the state.”

This should end well. I'm not sure Antifa has correctly judged the mood of their intended target.

Yep...  Millenial basement pajama boys whose joys in life revolve around video game releases vs. angry hardened gun owners.

Seems a little one sided to me too.

Pretty clearly the left is trying to create another Charlottesville narrative here. Perfidious b*stards.

DING! DING! DING!

We have a Winner!

Exactly. Totalitarians don't want ordinary people to be armed. It's highly likely that this bunch (ANTIFA) will create an incident, include some nut in their ranks to cause one, or start some sht with the gun owners there.

At the very best, it's bad optics.

Surely the Governor will amend his state of emergency to ban going masked and open carry of milkshakes

Especially concrete ones, with or without plastic straws.

Lacking in imagination of any sort, the left always uses something that worked for them in the past as a model.

...and will continue to do so until it doesn't work (usually on more than one occasion, not being given to changing tactics).

IMHO the only reason the ANTIFA thugs are gonna show up is because Gov. Coonman declared a state of emergency and there won't be any guns allowed at the capitol.

That won't stop them from bringing any.

Gun owners are going to have to be on their toes and ready to deal with any problems as quickly and peacefully as possible.

You're right.  I expect more than a few to bring their legally owned weapons anyway...and just not advertise the fact they are carrying.

And that will be bad news for any ANTIFA thug that decides to milkshake a Pro 2A person.

The pro-gun protestors will undoubtedly have no illusions about the ulterior motives and intentions of the Antifa thugs and will, I'm confident, act accordingly.  But just in case, stock up on popcorn.

If ten antifa thugs are beating a grandmother to death, and one gets shot, you know what the headlines will be.

VIOLENCE AT GUN RALLY LEAVES 2 WOUNDED/DEAD!

Please pray for the safety off all that are going to be there Monday.

I would expect ANTIFA to be greatly outnumbered, and as long as they aren't allowed to intermingle, that would hopefully keep them in check.

Mix a little whisky,and that should make or a fun after-party.

"Possibility"? More like a certainty. Northam and the rest of the gun grabbers are far left radicals,and the Antifa are far left radicals. My money is on Northam using his contacts with the radical left to have them there to pull hidden guns and start shooting in order to get more support for his gun grabs.

Once the shooting starts,the only chance the gun owners that are there can hope to survive is to march on the Capitol and arrest the governor and his cabinet. They will have nothing to lose once ANTIFA starts shooting people at random and blames it on the NRA. Northam will declare martial law,call out the NG,and start using the military and local deputies to seize guns.

You may be right, especially since Northam & Co. will have set up the legit protesters to be unarmed. We all know how "gun free" zones work out. There needs to be some strategy about interfaces between Gun groups and ANTIFA, best to have people who have vests in there.

And to think I was worried about getting bored in my old age!

Nothing but questions,like "Which of my 30 cals should I be checking over?"

Yeah, time to start working my upper body to get back the strength I lost when I dislocated my shoulders. My .30s are heavy critters, at least the very best are.

@txradioguy @Smokin Joe @sneakypete
Let’s just say:  having a vested interest, I am planning on being there.  The tenor of everything I’m seeing and hearing is that pretty much everyone is still planning on being armed.  Especially because Northam’s Emerg Declaration is in violation of a 2012 Va Law expressly forbidding govt from infringing on the 2A when an emergency declaration is issued. (He’s skirting that by declaring Capitol Square a shelter)

The scuttlebutt says that the gov is limiting access to Capitol Square to one gate with a metal detector.   They’ve already surrounded the rest of the square with fencing/barricades. 

I’m betting that the lone access point and/or multiple sections of the barricade will be breached inside of about 15mins.

People here are pissed...like I have never seen.
Whole lot of folks are about to put the “I will not comply” to the test.

@txradioguy

And when a otherwise legal CCW carrier pulls out his concealed handgun and puts the ANTIFA clown down,Northam and the press will be screaming "SEE! THIS is why we need to confiscate guns! We need to do this before more innocent citizens are gunned down at peaceful marches by some NRA gunnut!

Any way it comes down,it is going to be turned into a lose-lose situation by Northam and the press. The vast majority only know what they see on their teebee 6 oclock news,and we ALL know  how CBS,ABC,and NBC will report it,don't we?
