Gun-toting Second Amendment rights advocates descended on Virginia’s Capitol Square on Monday for the state’s annual Lobby Day.
In recent years, the annual tradition has seen large swaths of gun rights activists gather at the Capitol in Richmond, Virginia to demand that the state government repeal gun control laws.
But on Monday, the crowds were less impressive as just dozens of pro-gun group members, many wearing camo and bulletproof vests and carrying assault rifles, gathered across the street from the Capitol. Some stood close to signs proclaiming that firearms are prohibited beyond a certain point.
The gun activists chanted about their freedoms and at one point, were seen walking towards the Capitol with their weapons, before they were promptly stopped by Richmond police who calmly let them know where guns are and are not allowed on the premises.
No arrests were reported, and by the end of the work day, the protesters gathered up their things and left.
Black Lives Matter activists were also on the scene, as were others protesting vaccine mandates.
