Contributing sentiments towards policy:

44% : By early 2020, concerned that Virginia's newly "blue" state legislature would pass gun regulations, Rhodes announced that the Oath Keepers would "deploy" to Virginia to help sheriffs "raise and train an official armed posse in each county" to resist the allegedly unconstitutional actions of the Democratic governor.
41% : Never mind that private, unsanctioned militias have no authority to engage in law enforcement functions, or that, in Ferguson, local authorities were forced to intervene and demand that the Oath Keepers stop their operations after they began "walking the rooftops of businesses" with "semi-automatic rifles," in violation of county ordinances.
35% : He should get no credit for founding the very organization that has repeatedly taken up arms against the government and threatened law enforcement authorities.
