    Wow. When you think it can't be crazier?

    The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has not only issued temporary flight restrictions for Richmond, Virginia for Monday, but has designated the airspaces are “National Defense Airspace” until after Lobby Day, where tens of thousands of people who support the Second Amendment will gather on the Capitol grounds.

    Every single day, Indiana's low housing prices attract more and more people here who don't think like us.

    Virginia did not used to be a blue state.

    This! It can happen here too. Colorado used to be a red state too. Now the Denver-Ft Collins corridor is overrun with people like my inlaws.

    Yeah I read that VA has reports that armed drones may be used?

    Does Antifa have airborne capabilities?

    Making them a guided cruise missile isn't that easy either. You've got to get them in the air with the extra weight and be able to control them. Arming the weapon while in flight? If it's hot from take off it'll be the guy who blew up his garage.

    ANTIFA? I'd say no. They'd blow themselves up. It would take some skills to do this. A team with serious engineering skills.

    Pick a color in VA that should be considering this quote.

    Yes, every day I go through town and see more more houses sold with Illinois tags on the vehicles.

    Actually talk to the CIA. They taught ISIS troops how to turn propane tanks into rockets, AKA Hell cannons.
