(CBS) Virginia State Capitol white supremacist gathering to show what they think of MLK Jr. Day.

I luv guns, guys. I'll say anything to get elected.

The nice people of Virginia are gathering, without guns in the Capitol on their honor, to celebrate beloved African-American historical figure Nobel Peace Prize Laureate Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. It is supposed to be a peaceful demonstration but some gun nuts rights activists, with the conspicuous absence of the NRA, the official gun club of America, may be carrying concealed weapons. Anyone doing open carry for the coming Boogaloo, as they call it, is subject to arrest. But their police friends may be understanding enough to not interfere with their gun rights, regardless of what Virginia Governor Ralph Northam says.
