The Rod of Iron Freedom Festival is an anti-government, Christian far-right movement that held a 3 day 2nd Amendment Rally of Freedom, Faith and Family. A few far right politicians were in attendance and the event featured a speech from HJ Sean Moon, the founder of the World Peace and Unification Church in Pennsylvania, who often wears a crown made of bullets. Members take marriage vows to their AR-15 rifles and have blessings for their guns. Many in attendance were seen carrying guns. (Aimee Dilger/SOPA Images/LightRocket via Getty Images)
