By their definition, yes.

Sure does sound like it.

.
As mentioned in the article, I too foresee the potential for problems when trying to enforce it especially with the volatility and tensions of the current protests.

"...bans the carrying of guns at any event...."

Maybe this could also be applied to sporting events, shows, etc....anything determined an “event”? This ban will not only be applied at protests! Not sure how this would stand up to a legal challenge. Either way, what Richmond, Alexandria, Fairfax, etc. has done is ban our rights and we must stand together and fight this!

Well, I have to think about my actions for a bit, but I say lets get 50,000 law abiding Armed Citizens to attend Lobby Day, and see what they do about it!!!

We can hope that a Supreme Court with ACB on it will eventually have a say on this.
