Has anyone seen a good discussion of the argument for citizens of other states going, or not going, to Richmond? On one level, this is a state government attacking its people. On another, we all know this is a test on a national issue. Looking for a debate on the topic.

Patriots within a few hundred miles and who can manage the logistics ought to go, but only with the expectation of engaging in Free Speech.
Keep smiles on your faces and engage in simple Speech, only that, operating inside the permitted protest areas. Legal permits I mean, any actions outside the parameters of the issued permits are civil disobedience, crimes/rioting, and we don't want that in any form. Don't block streets you do not have authority to block, don't be a criminal.
Be peaceful and do not let the Enemy instigate or provoke you, do not rise to their taunts and threats.
They will happily gun you down, do not go there angry they hope to make you do 'anything' so they can shoot you down and say, see, we told you they were Bad Guys.
The "let them win" argument. I never understood this one, but it's popular in the States losing ground to the anti-gunners.
No you don't understand, that much is correct.
Okay then, so what will be gained when people are killed or arrested for civil disobedience? If you want to 'let them win', then show up stupid, violate the terms of the legal permits and get arrested or worse, I wish you luck.
But I wouldn't want you anywhere near me. If after we exhaust all other means it is necessary to pick up arms we will, in the millions we will. But we are not there yet, in fact we are on the cusp of our greatest victory, with Trump and Q+ doing the heavy lifting.
But you think violence is better....
What was accomplished when people were killed or arrested for civil disobedience during the Revolutionary War? A free country.
Yeah except we are not calling out the Revolution just yet.
Go Speak, exercise your Right to Speak. In Peace tho, otherwise you are same as the Enemy, same/same as BLM and klantifa, same as the corrupt double damned government and other Evils stalking the land.
If you go get gunned down the Revolution will not come avenge you, it will just be used against the rest of Society.
We are on the edge of winning it all Peacefully, the Enemy seeks to cripple us with this thing.
Go speak, but please obey all the applicable laws and maintain polite dignity. Comport yourself as did the Covington Kids, teenagers who maintained their poise under threat, be a symbol of quiet strength and morality, not a mob.
OK ,you stay home , THE REST OF US ARE GOING TO TRENTON WITH GENERAL WASHINGTON.
Trenton? Been there, no thanks.
Okay, bon voyage, write if you find work. Good luck with that, please comport yourself with quiet dignity, politely explaining matters to the corrupt government/media/reception committees. Be Lawful.
I'll pray for you, and also pray you don't make it worse for us all.

The Left is showing a willingness to ignore the rights which have protected the people from tyrannical government for more than two centuries. They are discussing using force. Do you truly believe smiling from your jail cell (because that's where you'll be if you walk into their pen and protest with no option to resort to force of your own) will change their minds?
The left has overplayed their hand. Look at the map of Virginia of all the people that do not want to give up their guns. This is spreading like wildfire to other states, Florida, Texas even blue strongholds like Illinois and Rhode Island.
This is the beginning in the organization of an actual front against tyranny. Declare publicly what people are not willing to accept. The acting government will eventually lose legitimacy.
Fighting on their ground with their rules is a recipe for disaster.
The Revolutionary war the redcoats were caught off guard because the colonists did not fight using their rules of engagement. Read Sun Zu art of War.
Go in there with 'force', as you put it, and you'll likely be gunned down, and for what utility?
Expect snipers and drones, a kill zone fenced off with controlled access points. Expect searches, you won't be allowed weapons. But the Enemy both inside the kill zone and in the surrounding areas will have weapons.
Are you prepared for mass casualties, you have plans for fire teams using fire and movement to ...do what exactly? You have any means of comms with any fire teams, any means to identify your own forces or the Enemy?
If we have to have a Revolution then so be it, but we are not at that point yet. Go in Peace, if you go looking for violences you will find it, our double damned corrupt government has that almost guaranteed for you.
But we are on the cusp of winning Peacefully, be certain you know what it is you do. Go Peacefully and Speak, yeah sure and of course. But do it all Peacefully, with quiet dignity not with anger.
