chrislhayes If they try to take them then yea probably...

chrislhayes Never in my life, and I've lived through the sixties, would I imagine our society would sink to this low.

chrislhayes The implicit and explicit message of the second amendment is this: 'Don't you dare enact policies that bar a person from their rights, if you do we will use these guns to defend our rights from you.'

chrislhayes Jasu Cristy is this America when did we transition from ballot to bullets? Shame on those yahoos

JamesRusso2d3d chrislhayes All I see? NRA-fed paranoia with a huge side-order of Toxic Masculinity, served with a fetishized Military cosplay.

chrislhayes and yet, nobody burns anything, nothing is destroyed, there are no wounded or fights or dead. How different it is from when these leftists make demonstrations.

MalcolmNance chrislhayes It defineately looks like a threat.

chrislhayes That is kind of the point of the 2A. Also kind of the point of the rally. The 1A is first for a reason, the 2nd is there in case the 1st doesn’t work out. Don’t infringe upon the rights of free people. Infringe = to limit or restrict. “...shall not be infringed.”

carlosalazraqui chrislhayes So this is their America? Guns against the voters? The Nazis are on the march!

MalcolmNance chrislhayes

MalcolmNance chrislhayes We should be thankful they have shown their weaponry. Now after the laws are enacted, law enforcement knows what they will need to neutralize the threat they pose.

MalcolmNance chrislhayes Exactly!

chrislhayes Viagra should be having a selling spree with these guys.

chrislhayes The intent of the founders are simple the government shall not infringe upon your right to keep and bear arms PERIOD Don’t even try it!!

chrislhayes

chrislhayes Strong people scare you dong they? Peaceful. Non destructive. No hate chants. No cars on fire. No looting. Defending a constitutional right. You couldn't possibly understand.

chrislhayes Gee. There are so many lies here.

chrislhayes Seems to be embellishing on what they think they mean. It's almost repadamschiff ery.

chrislhayes That’s exactly the message they are sending. Will we stand for rule by unelected armed thugs? Is this what we’ve become?

chrislhayes im sure you meant to say 'everyday law abiding citizens showed up in mass with guns, and nothing happened'?

chrislhayes

chrislhayes That’s an incredibly moronic statement but thank you for the back to work laugh you goofball.

chrislhayes That’s just a bold face lie by Hayes!!!

chrislhayes I guess it's alright for these people to show up like this, let a bunch of card carrying black folks show up like this, I bet the situation will turn out real different!

chrislhayes

chrislhayes Word of caution for the GOP: you should know liberals own guns too, and taking an eye for any eye will only lead to an epidemic of blindness.

chrislhayes LMFAO 1,000s of guns at pro 2A rally no one gets shot....yet you can’t walk into a club in Chicago where guns are banned without getting shot. P.S. Hayes is a woman

chrislhayes If that were the case then they would be doing exactly what our for fathers intended the 2nd A to be about. Where's the problem?

chrislhayes Where were all the Antifa members? Oh that's right they are only brave when they are assaulting innocent, unarmed people.

chrislhayes Meal Team Six.

chrislhayes Sounds like the ANTIFA thugs you support but one big MAJOR difference sheepherder! There was an absence of VIOLENCE! You and are a lying deceitfully lot!

chrislhayes White supremacy in the full view of the many. Yuma Arizona

chrislhayes Not really... they just believe in the Constitution. Unfortunately politicians and the left do not.

chrislhayes Haha yeah I'm pretty sure that's what they all said. Enough with the Communist propaganda get a real job.

chrislhayes

chrislhayes That’s true chrislhayes . That is exactly why we have the 2nd Amendment. Glad you finally understood the US Constitution and Bill of Rights.

chrislhayes 'Pursue peace with all men, and holiness, without which no one will see the Lord: looking diligently lest anyone fall short of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up cause trouble, and by this many become defiled.' Hebrews 12.14, 15

chrislhayes Thank you low rated Chris

chrislhayes A lawless and corrupt society in our midst is taking place right in front of us speak out rule of law and freedom loving people bettervhurry before the impeached president trump’s gang totally takes over.

chrislhayes

sweedypy chrislhayes Yikes

chrislhayes It did look intimidating assault rifles in an American Street , scary

chrislhayes Anyone who thinks this is people simply showing their support for the 2A, you are falling for the ruse. This is intimidation, plain and simple.

chrislhayes FakeNews

chrislhayes Wouldn't big decorated codpieces be cheaper?

chrislhayes The implicit message from the government is that we don’t care about your constitutional rights, we are coming for your guns. You also failed to mention to was a peaceful rally.

chrislhayes And nobody was hurt no shots fired so I think a state of emergency was a bit of a stretch by the snowflake governor

chrislhayes Quick question. What’s the color of the Virginia militia? I hear rumors that it’s to be voted a hot camp pink by law. That’ll show them

chrislhayes No They are exercising there 2A rights.

chrislhayes LIAR, why misrepresent? Because you don’t know what you’re talking about. “We will use these guns against you.” “We The People” NEED protection from a radical government in a free societ.

chrislhayes 22,000 gun activists from all of the states around Virginia. This is not a majority of the voting state of Virginia or any of the surrounding states. This is a loud minority who thinks that the majority who want reasonable gun restrictions don't have guns also.

chrislhayes When did Hayes learn to read minds? And why is it he can only read the rights minds? BSNBC pissed, because this didn't turn into the riot they were so giddy for!

chrislhayes So what's the message. We don't need your laws ,we have the guns hence we are correct this is Trump way to make America great

chrislhayes Or it could be ..these rights are granted to us not by man but by God. They exist to prevent Gov from becoming too powerful...

chrislhayes its what george washington said himself!!!!!!

chrislhayes “Yo, man, do these cargo pants make my dick look bigger?”

SmokeyStafford chrislhayes I had some tool say to me that these men, dressed in cammo and slinging AR-15s, didn't mean to look in anyway threatening. Seriously?

chrislhayes Conservatives rally for their constitutional rights. Liberals rally for their rights to kill the unborn. See the difference?

chrislhayes America under Trump and NRA is slowly turning into a dangerous anarchy where the rule of politics, law and public debate are replaced by the rule of fear and hate.

chrislhayes Dont you dare take our rights, if you do , we will use these guns against you.

chrislhayes

chrislhayes where are the photos of the gun owning black people or African Americans who attended with their guns

chrislhayes Stupid white nationalist.

chrislhayes They just like dressing up and acting like they are somebody. Morons.

chrislhayes Toy town wack jobs

chrislhayes It’s ALWAYS been about intimidation. Armed Teabaggers outside venue where, then, President Obama was giving an address. Out-of-shape Ammosexual freaks, Open Carrying& staring ‘cause they’re so tough, yards away from Mothers Against Gun Violence protesters. Intimidation

chrislhayes You mean Unconstitutional policies!

chrislhayes Try again you dam left wing lying commies

chrislhayes Trump’s brown shirts.

chrislhayes I suppose you're highly disappointed that no one caused any incidents and there was no violence, which completely ruined your narrative. Writing real news is extremely hard, but that's why you took up the mantle of the 4th Estate. Not, dare I say it, to make up news.

chrislhayes 'why don't people like us anymore?' - MSNBC

chrislhayes So many anti America and anti constitutional traitors in this post. If y’all have no respect for the constitution, don’t enjoy your god given rights and want to live in a dictatorship. Why don’t you all just leave America post haste? Move to the UK, Canada etc. 🤡

chrislhayes We invade countries where men are armed with weapons of war and suicide vest. These guys are clueless. I do however support their right to bare arms.

chrislhayes 😂😂😂that shit is hilarious Oh no thats not the definetion of police state Or the definetion of intimidation These guys are flat out telling politicians if you vote or draft a certain bill we will shoot you Wtf

chrislhayes Chris Hayes is one of the biggest buffoons in the history of our media.

chrislhayes Every state has these wing nuts. They don’t understand that everybody has a gun, whether they make a fool of themselves or not. Rule of law has to survive or we become a bunch of lawless, murdering thugs.

chrislhayes Imagine if it was the black community that had marched in the state's capital, the law enforcement would have lost their minds and put Virginia state under Marshall law with curfew to keep all blacks under lock and key.

chrislhayes Wusses

chrislhayes Wtf!

chrislhayes No they were protecting all the other rights. If we give up any one of our rights the rest will be taken away without a fight.

chrislhayes And yet, more peaceful than the womens' March screaming profanities and actually protesting for the right to kill their own children. Yah, lawful gun owners are not the problem.

chrislhayes Yet no one fired a shot and the point of having guns to maintain peace and stop tyrannical politicians from taking away rights is upheld. Yeah the gun toting constitution abiding and loving civilians were in the wrong...

chrislhayes Armed citizens threatened our civilized establishment. In times of war or conflict, with a challenge from within, the civilized people will rise and repel the imminent challenges of lawless elements. They too, can show their mettle when they are threatened by anarchists.

chrislhayes No. It's to show that law abiding gun owners are not the problem. So predictable. The lack of violence forces the media to pivot to a lame arguement about how such a peaceful day like today is stiiiil a bad thing. No wonder most people think YOU are the problem.

chrislhayes The face of American Nazis that their forefathers fought against.

chrislhayes The Dumb Squad!

chrislhayes Yes, because those policies are illegal, as in unconstitutional. They hold no water in the first place.

chrislhayes Thousands of heavily armed individuals, and not one violent incident. Anyone stupid enough to fire a weapon at someone, would'v been eliminated immediately by many. Compared to the liberal lefts, so called ' Mostly peaceful protests' by Antifa. 🤔🙄

chrislhayes They passed so what are they going to do?

chrislhayes You and your cronies in Dem cities and the MSM do not understand or wish to understand these people.

chrislhayes The solution? Treat these guys like they were an unarmed 18 year old black kid just pulled over for a faulty tail light. They’ll give up those guns toot sweet

chrislhayes Ha ha ha ! You clowns keep trying to push your own narrative ! A peaceful rally with true Americans is the real headline here ! MAGA

chrislhayes No shit. That’s the point of the 2A. When an overreaching and tyrannical entity threatens your rights, not just the right to self defense, you hold them accountable with the same objects they will use to enforce said human rights violations.

chrislhayes Scary...

chrislhayes Yes.

chrislhayes This is totally insane. Gum rightist are going off the deep end. Why does one man need an arsenal? What are they defending that needs so much fire power? Can you imagine any other civilized society tolerating such a display in the public square by private citizens? Unlikely.

chrislhayes Though I do not think it will come to that and pray that it doesn't... Let's read the Constitution and Bill of Right again together and see what it requires as a responsibility of a free nation. Does it tells us to throw off our Government or modify it under extreme conditions?

chrislhayes Yes. They are good and right to.

chrislhayes That’s what the second amendment guarantees?

chrislhayes

chrislhayes What chance does law enforcement have with people harboring military weapons? Why is it legal to do this in one of the most industrialized countries where more people die from gun violence?

chrislhayes Safe to say if that armed group was majority of color it would be a different rally.

chrislhayes “No free man shall ever be debarred the use of arms.” “I prefer dangerous freedom over peaceful slavery.” “What country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance.

chrislhayes Today was so much more peaceful than you media french ticklers would have the world believe. I was there and I've never felt so safe in my life. City Council members America-wide, you try to disarm police like you did today, people gonna start getting deputized. Be careful!

chrislhayes Out of control!

chrislhayes Chris Hayes....you can always go back to England, douchebag.

chrislhayes A completely peaceful rally, unlike what happens when antifa does their thing. Your 'reporting', literal propaganda. And funny, you've got no problem with hooded white kids that beat up on their political opposition in public spaces. Go ____ yourselves.

chrislhayes Lol way to talk this up like something horrible was going to happen. Bunch of clowns you are.

chrislhayes

chrislhayes Exactly right Chris

chrislhayes It's looking a lot like anarchy in America.

chrislhayes 2nd Amendment insures the right to own and carry weapons for protection. Just proving our.point liars at MSNBC aren't smart enough to figure that out.

chrislhayes You people are annoying, you wouldn’t know how to report the news if your life depended on it-

chrislhayes Like their cause or not, it’s their right to protest. It’s a gross overstatement to say they were heavily armed . You were wrong to portray them as thugs (that’s antifa). And, as jumpy as the governor was they had more to fear from the government than the other way around

chrislhayes Fuck them and their guns.’This is just pathetic. Why don’t they have a banner that says, “My self-esteem is so low that I must carry a gun to prove that I have gonads.” I own guns but don’t feel the need to carry them around in public to prove my masculinity.

chrislhayes Chris Hayes?!!! LOL!!!!

chrislhayes

chrislhayes This is Trump’s America 😰

chrislhayes Dam Straight. Not just in Virginia

chrislhayes is so full of 💩

chrislhayes If they want to get arrested or even die for their cause: let them.

chrislhayes Drop roach powder on them. It will take care of the problem.

chrislhayes What we saw today was the real Nazi propaganda arm go into full panic mode trying to sell a narrative that no one believes. Listen to MSNBC, compare their propaganda to the Nazis and they are similar. Anyone who disagrees with them deserves no rights and deserve concern. camps!

chrislhayes If they used those weapons in the end they would all die at the hands of our military. Stupid males caressing the extension of their tiny penises

chrislhayes Why is it gun rights? It's the Constitution. Am I missing something? How about reporting HEADLINE Tyrannical overlords failed protecting the Constitution. Tyranny FakeNewsMedia Constitution freedom SecondAmendment

chrislhayes Ya'll Qaeda in action!

chrislhayes We will never let leftist liberals turn our state into California.

chrislhayes You can read it like that...and you rpbably should...

chrislhayes They are American Patriots protesting for their second amendment rights! Descent hard working Americans! No violence and they picked up their trash. God Bless Them and keep them safe!🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

chrislhayes Wow! Do you see all those guns and... not one shooting. Proving once again that it is the criminal and not the law abider who should be limited.

chrislhayes The difference between the patriots in Richmond today is they would fight and die to protect others right to free speech, 2nd Amend or other vital freedoms while those leftist who demonize them are the ones trying to destroy everyone’s rights that disagree with them!

chrislhayes Well, that did seem to be the message.

chrislhayes 'Definition of Terrorism: the use of violence and intimidation, especially against civilians, in the pursuit of political aims'. Is there any difference between the guys above and the guys below?

chrislhayes This is very scary...what is this saying to good American s! We are being warned...! 😔

chrislhayes Assassins

chrislhayes Really and what is Antifa message, you one way mother

chrislhayes From realDonaldTrump with love.

chrislhayes Arrest these individuals before they kill someone

chrislhayes 'Incitement' from ControlledMedia Expected 🥱

chrislhayes chrislhayes = douche

chrislhayes SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED.

chrislhayes They can try. I hope they enjoy their stay in the penitentiary afterwards, though. Assuming they survive.

chrislhayes Hillbilly Con has the *worst* cosplay

chrislhayes home grown terrorists. we have laws to deal with them.

chrislhayes “I like taking the guns early.” “Take the guns first; go through due process second.” —Donald Trump

chrislhayes They are already murdering us with them.

chrislhayes Did anyone catch that rally? I didn't see any ass holes attacking anyone, block traffic or burn shit down did you? They even cleaned up after themselves. The left could learn something from them and find out how a real protest is supposed to be conducted.

chrislhayes F them! Counter arm protest will scare them.

chrislhayes Lololololol.

chrislhayes Ohh that is exactly what we are saying, as is our right, to expel tyranny from the land of the free.

chrislhayes Chris is a dishonest wimp. The message is that some America will fight for rights that you want to take away. That's not the position of violent people. It's the position of principle people. Chris's position on guns is not morally superior.

chrislhayes Really? Your network was saying it was a white supremacist rally! Then you said it was a crisis! After it was just people exercising the right to protest not their second amendment being violated you still have a problem. Pathetic!

chrislhayes The implicit/explicit message of heavily armed people marching in the state’s capital is this: Don’t you dare enact your policies. If you do, we will use these guns against you. & THAT'S THE BEAUTIFUL PURPOSE OF THE 2nd AMENDMENT, STOP BIG BROTHER FROM FUCKING WITH WE THE PEOPLE

chrislhayes Can you imagine what would have happened in the 1960s if civil rights marchers had shown up armed like this?

chrislhayes That is fear mongering propaganda of the worst sort.

chrislhayes These guys just found out the new Gwyneth Paltrow candles don't smell like lotion...and they are pissed...you'll get it later.

chrislhayes Sounds like he is an utter buffoon then.

chrislhayes Hayes triggered by a peaceful protest.

chrislhayes Figures you would tweet this. Not like when the left riots and antifa gets involved. We are just more civilized than the left.

chrislhayes Weird how you surmise that they might use their rights to defend their rights against unconstitutional acts.

chrislhayes They rallied without out guns. So where does this FakeNewsPic come from. They were like fish in a barrel.
