Anthony Tilghman...
“Trump Supporters came over to the early voting site to protest while people are in line to Vote in FairFax Virginia.
“As you can see here they are blocking the entrance to the voting site.”
”Trump Supporters continue to protest at the #EarlyVoteVA site in Fairfax VA. They have to move voters inside because they are blocking the site for voters.
”Update: Most of the #MAGA Supporters cleared out when extra security came to monitor the voting site.”
There are video’s attached to the tweets showing pushy trump supporters swarming. Clearly meant to try & intimidate the voters.
There comes a point that you really don’t know what to say anymore.

And I wonder what the point was? Are they objecting to early voting itself? Because some of those voters might have been voting for trump, so how did the protestors know who they were disrupting. Yes, Northern Virginia is overwhelmingly blue but we do still have some trumpers.

I’d probably be in jail or at least in some viral cell phone video if I’d been trying to vote. Unbelievable what the USA has become.

Yes, Northern Virginia is overwhelmingly blue but we do still have some trumpers. The goal is to destroy our republic. You will see more voting obstruction and suppression as we get closer to November.

Broadcast their faces everywhere. Identify them and charge them with intimidation of voting rights and jail them for a year.

Can someone please provide a video that shows the entrance being blocked or voters being blocked. The only words I hear are "Four more years" and I don't see anyone being harassed or blocked. That video is of a peaceful demonstration but no entrance or voters are being blocked and it is quite a distance from the front doors of the building.

I get their right to protest. But what exactly are they protesting? Are they protesting people exercising their right to vote?

It appears they were blocking the line of voters who had already been standing in line. This is where the line was.
This is where they blocked the people in line. The large 'planter' seems to be in the same place.
Am I 100% correct? I tried to be correct. IN any case no one is allowed to imped the people trying to get to the polls.

If you follow the link to the Fox video and scroll down, there’s a 2nd video. The Trump supporters were blocking the road, then moved back to the brick area by security. You don’t bring in extra security and move the voting line inside because of peaceful protesters.

Isn't it illegal to have political signs etc within "x" number of feet of voting entrance (and within) in most states?
It is here. Or so I've always thought.
(will google)
quick search says not within 100 feet here and 40 in Virginia.

Such patriots.
I am disgusted that they have co-opted the American flag as their symbol.

They aren't blocking the entrance, they aren't confronting anyone, they aren't being hostile. I don't see the problem. I am disgusted that they have co-opted the American flag as their symbol. They're Americans, it's already their symbol. It's a symbol of all Americans.

Anyone who tries to intimidate Americans on their way to vote or outright stop other Americans from voting have no business carrying the American flag because they are not true Americans. They don’t belong in this country if they are going to pull that crap.

My neighbors were there - Fairfax County Government Center - and said there was a group all set up with tent and Republican Party signs intimidating and yelling at voters. I see all that now on the link.

He and his supporters are not representative of me or the values of this country. Or at least what I thought we valued. And I definitely don’t see them as the patriots they claim to be. I don’t see the flag the same way when it is used by Trump supporters.

It's not that I choose not to see it, it is that these 2 actions absolutely do not exist in the videos posted here. Everyone was roaming by them and there was vast empty space into the building.

It would appear you did not read this post from @justjoan. “My neighbors were there - Fairfax County Government Center - and said there was a group all set up with tent and Republican Party signs intimidating and yelling at voters. I see all that now on the link. ”Notice the words “intimidating “ and “yelling at”.

Apparently you missed the first tweet where they started and blocked the people who were already standing in line!

It says that they were removed, so 🤷♀️ ETA: my bad-they left when extra security showed up.
