A 49-year-old Las Vegas man was arrested near former President Donald Trump’s rally in Coachella on Saturday with a loaded firearm and a high-capacity magazine, the Riverside County Sheriff’s Department said Sunday.
Deputies assigned to the rally contacted the driver of a black SUV at a checkpoint near the intersection of Avenue 52 and Celebration Drive just before 5 p.m. Saturday, sheriff’s officials said.
They allegedly found the driver in possession of a shotgun, a loaded handgun and a high-capacity magazine. The driver was identified as Vem Miller, and was taken into custody and later booked at the John J. Benoit Detention Center on suspicion of possessing a loaded firearm and possessing a high-capacity magazine.
Why can’t 2nd amendment advocates open carry at Trump’s rallies? Does he not support gun rights?
Does Donald “take the guns first, due process later” Trump support gun rights? You tell me.
I guess he doesn’t have many teachers in the audience?
No, he actually doesn’t. He has been very vocal and clear about it.
Stop infringing on my 2A rights Donnie!!
The Black rights movement clearly showed that gun ownership is supposedly segregated too.
Rallies are considered private events. You can regulate firearms at private events even in states with permissive firearm laws. Firearms were disallowed at the NRA conference during the leadership event.
