The rally took place in Woodbury, Minnesota, on August 8, 2020, organized to show support for law enforcement. A "Thin Blue Line" flag, a common symbol of pro-police solidarity, was mounted on a motorcycle near the gathering. Nearby, a "Police Lives Matter" message appeared alongside it, echoing the same theme. The event drew counter-demonstrators carrying "Black Lives Matter" signs, reflecting the broader tension between the two movements that summer.
