Firearms Are Not Always Prohibited in DC

FOX 5 News Photojournalist Jesse Burkett-Hall posted a photo on Twitter of a notice prohibiting all firearms within 1000 feet of the sign. The sign appears to be located near Freedom Plaza in Washington, DC.

In response to these signs and a corresponding news article, one Reddit user claimed that the “possesion of guns is illegal in DC… It’s always been like this. No change whatsoever for the protests… articles pretending the rule has something to do with any protest on either side are just stirring shit.”
