Great seeing so many folks together. There were times where you couldn't move due to amount of people on the streets. I got there about 7:45am and headed out shortly after 12. In all that time there wasn't a single time that someone bumped into me where they didn't ask pardon. Everyone was polite and respectful.
Yes Antifa was definitely there...all protesting against anti-2A laws. I saw exactly one person who was carrying a sign wanting stricter gun laws. Everyone ignored him. I never saw any blatant supremacist groups. I didn't hear one single racist comment. There were men and women of many different backgrounds all protesting in favor of the 2nd amendment.

I like the big sign, seen in the live stream, that said "GOVT and Media run by Organized Crime"

Man, the corrupt media will not cover this crowd - MAGA hats and at a gun rights rally.
Great group of young men and women - listening to their interviews they get it all.

^^^ Love the kid with this group above interviewed wearing the MAGA hat - he jokingly said the MSM announced there'd be tons of white supremacist's at the rally - but since he hadn't seen any, he would self identify as one...

Awesome performance at the rally ladies and gentlemen! Congratulations!
Wished I could have been there but my battle with cancer is a problem.

Someone needs to get a drone up, to get a good, independent read on the actual size of the protest.

y'all sure this happened? I just did a quick check of MSNBC an didn't see a thing... CNN had a small link but had to scan about ten other things to find it. Good Job folks! Utah is with you!

Couldn't hear any of the official speakers outside the pen, but Nick Freitas came out and talked with all the scary gun owners.

um, no. 30k is what I am betting.

That is awesome to see. Americans of all races coming together to stand up for what they believe in that is actually constitutionally correct, not listening to some dictators trying to dissolve our voice and more importantly, our rights.

No problem. Some are my pics, most are pics that i picked up while there off social media.
It was a good day. I have to say, first class effort by our LEO's. Just a prime example of the quality of people we have working in our state.

Of course you didn't see any alphabet entries into this -- there was ZERO FIGHTS, ZERO PROBLEMS, ZERO -- well ya'll get my drift. Had there been anything they would ALL be there filming. Fucking Dems.
