There won't be anymore Trayvons that get killed if they don't jump on armed people and try to beat them to death.
This is how you do a protest

And this is a problem? Killing racists in self-defense is fine, just like killing anyone else in self-defense is fine.
Granted, what you define as racist is pretty distorted.
Trayvon did have a right to stand his ground, but that's not what he did. He rushed a guy, knocked him to the ground, and then proceeded to beat him profusely. That's going to get you shot regardless of what state you're in, if the person you're beating is armed.
The optics of the Women's March were pretty ridiculous as well.
How so? It was for people who wanted to show that the barrage of laws that the Virginia legislature are preparing to pass are not acceptable.
I have to admit that I've not encountered many female racial separatists. That's usually more of a male-centric position (regardless of race). I'm not sure exactly why that is, but the numbers generally support this.
Compared to most protests, it wasn't heavily patrolled. And there have been plenty of protests that were heavily patrolled but still had plenty of violence (see various Antifa protests in Oregon).
Police are important, but whether or not a protest becomes violent has the most to do with the mentality of the protesters present. In this particular case, Antifa, 3 percenters, and various other groups of both the left and right found a common cause in supporting gun rights peacefully.
Look at the way these people were dressed. These aren't your typical gun-owners. These are angry Incels who do want violence. Probably against the DEEP STATE. The gun-owners I know wouldn't be caught dead at something like this.
If the gun owners you know don't live in Virginia, they don't have a need to be at a rally like this.
If the state you live in does suddenly look like it will lose its gun rights, then maybe some of those gun owners you know would show up to an equivalent rally. If they wouldn't, then I guess they wouldn't care too much about losing their gun rights.
Because, for most of those years, Republicans blocked Democrats from passing federal gun legislation. Had the Democrats not overplayed their hand early on with the ACA, they might have held onto majorities longer and been able to pass more legislation restricting gun rights.

I doubt it. Republicans fought Obama on everything, no matter what the issue was. But he never made an attempt to take away the guns, anyway. So this fear-mongering is pretty much just based on angry Fox News segments.

Even when I was living in New York, most of the gun-owners I knew had enough sense to know that the Deep State Swamp Never Trumpers Radical Socialist Democrats Nazi Soviets aren't coming to take our guns and stick us in a death panel.
Sure, there were some Conservatards who thought that. But these are the kind of people who also think Obama is a Muslim Communist. I'm fine with people owning guns and I don't think all Conservatives are this bad. But the people who went to the retard rally belong to a very specific branch of the Right.

There actually is a reason behind it.
Most Americans don't really care about the issues, they care about belonging to a team. You're either on the Left or the Right. A major cornerstone of the Right is trying to turn back time. This is why Nationalism is generally a right-wing thing, but so is sexism. Most women side with the Left because of the sexism, but that means they also have to give up Nationalism.
It's too bad, a lot of girls actually are interested in the Alt-Right, but then when they see how sexist and homophobic they are, they go straight back to the Left.
I'm pretty black pilled, but I do think it's possible that one day the Left will embrace Nationalism again. Outside of the West, everyone is Nationalist, regardless of politics. In Europe, because liberal policies have worked so well for so long, right-wing Nationalists tend to also be Social Democrats who support women and LGBT rights. So yeah, mostly black pilled with a little white pill.

Which still is nothing more then you attempting to divert from the OP, regarding a PEACEFUL PROTEST.

If , instead of just blurting out your ignorance (as per usual), you took, say, 30 seconds to research the facts on Google, you would find that Blacks in the US kill a lot of people with guns every year. BUT the overwhelming majority of their fellow Americans that they kill are OTHER BLACKS. You can access the official FBI statistics on line for free.

Yeah, I just had a look at a selection other posts she's written. Many of them are irrational, so it is possible she has some kind of psychiatric condition. I think that on forums like this, if individuals are writing lots of nonsense, I mean regularly posting political commentary that is the linguistic equivalent of 4+2 =9 (metaphorically speaking) the Moderators should give them the chop. It's a freedom of speech issue. It also about serious mental illness; and the way I see it, people with psychosis, or some kind of cognitive or delusional disorder who are detached from rational reality should not be using Internet forums like this. That is ,they ought not be permitted to broadcast madness into the public domain.
