The Proud Boys took to organizing a rally in the honor of Rittenhouse and his victory. ‘Kyle Rittenhouse Appreciation Rally,’ was held on Saturday afternoon at Washington Square Park in Salt Lake City.

A Facebook flyer asked the rallygoers to arrive armed, though the two-hour rally did not have any apparent armed members, according to Twitter photos. The event was also lorded as a celebration of 2nd amendment rights.

The rally was sponsored by conservative groups such as Stand Up For Your Constitutional Rights as well as other local groups from the area. The event asked their attendees to bring “bring banners, 2A flags, and freedom flags.” It was an event to celebrate “your rights to defend your cities.”
