The fake news from MSNBC was in full swing today (see below) during the gun rights rally in Richmond, Virginia. The leftist media tried to paint it as a racist and divisive occasion, but it was nothing like that. Thousands of gun rights supporters gathered for the peaceful rally.
One gun-rights supporter was fed up with the fake news from MSNBC. He got into the live shot and yelled out obscenities before he could be pulled away from the shot.

The media was trying to push their agenda, but social media pushed back:
This is who the media was trying to call white supremacists in Richmond for supporting the 2nd amendment. The left's lies didn't work today! #VirginiaRally pic.twitter.com/ZuDPb8duY7

The heckler in the video above had every reason to be upset with MSNBC for their misleading coverage of the rally:
MSNBC anchor Craig Melvin ratcheted up the fear-mongering during an 11:00 a.m. segment where he claimed there were “armed militias” and “white nationalist groups” at the gub right rally in Richmond:
Fake News is bad enough, but this is dangerous rhetoric from MSNBC!
“This is the scene in Richmond. armed militia, white nationalist groups from all over the country taking part on MLK day.”
FAKE NEWS -> @MSNBC's @CraigMelvin who just claimed that "thousands" of "white nationalists" and "militia groups" are "swarming the state capitol in Richmond" (along with "guns rights activists") #2A #LobbyDay2020 #VirginiaRally pic.twitter.com/9cgymITqe4

Melvin was called out on social media for his lies.
A video of an attendee at the rally saying that the media is mischaracterizing those at the gun rally:
Such liars. https://t.co/5ZI3gag8kJ

Democrats claiming President Trump’s supporters are divisive should check out Melvin trying to push a racist false narrative.
More often than not, it’s the fake news from CNN or MSNBC that plants the seeds of discord.
