Well of course it is. They want a war, whether at home or abroad. They realize they can't goad POTUS into a war so now they are trying to goad the American public.
My question is how many people the National Guard and how many police will go through with an unconstitutional order to confiscate guns. They took and oath. To violate that oath by obeying the governor's order is an act of TREASON. Every officer and guardsman should stand down and refuse the order. Then, march up and arrest Northam and all those who helped him. Charge them all with TREASON.
