Car Caravans Forming for Historic Protest in Washington
BY IVAN PENTCHOUKOV December 30, 2020 Updated: December 30, 2020
Sixty-year-old Robin, a retail merchandiser in rural Virginia, hasnt visited the nations capital in more than two decades or ever taken part in organizing a political event, although she was quick to volunteer to manage a stop for one of the four vehicle caravans headed to Washington for what many are calling a historic protest on Jan. 6, 2021. ... In an unprecedented request, President Donald Trump asked his supporters to travel to Washington for a big protest on Jan. 6, when a joint session of Congress will be held, during which lawmakers will vet the Electoral College votes cast three weeks prior.

I think everything lays on Vice President Pence, and I think he will do the right thing and not certify those votes of the swing states in question, said Eric, 47, of Richmond, Virginia. ... When theres going to be millions of people descending on our nations capital, he will feel that, I believe, he said. I think hes a good, honest man. And I think hed do whats right no matter what.

Ive never served in the military, but I feel like Im right now in the military, said Shawn, 57, of Knoxville, Tennessee. And Im going into war. Im going to battle for my country. I think we all feel that way. Were going to get boots on the ground.

The four caravan routes start in Boston; Lansing, Michigan; Nashville, Tennessee; and Gadsden, Alabama. The Michigan and Massachusetts caravans plan to converge in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, before heading to Washington via Maryland. The Tennessee and Alabama caravans are to converge in Richmond, Virginia.

(5,266 posts)I am in a central billy hill area (Knoxville). And today I saw a few of the idiotic flags waving.
But this must be their last stand. Not many. Just a few.

(825 posts)What a bunch of wanna be fucks...I hate these fuckers. And this: And Im going into war. Im going to battle for my country. I think we all feel that way. Were going to get boots on the ground. You had the opportunity to go to war for your country you fuck but didn't. Those of us who did can tell you TREASON is not protecting "your" country, signing a contract that forfeits your life if your country requires that is WHAT CONSTITUTES GOING TO WAR. Jesus christ, cammo and an AR do not make you a soldier. I can't even....
You either you did or you didnt.
