It’s going to be interesting to see what happens in Virginia if the new Democratic governor tries to disarm folks. The 2nd amendment calls “A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state” which is what it sounds like soe sheriffs are going to form.

"It’s going to be interesting to see what happens in Virginia if the new Democratic governor tries to disarm folks. The 2nd amendment calls “A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state” which is what it sounds like some sheriffs are going to form." Our history with despots, who tried to disarm us is fairly explicit.

What happened when the Brits try to take away our guns the first time at Lexington April 19, 1775?:

Thomas Jefferson, “I enclose you a list of the killed, wounded, and captives of the enemy from the commencement of hostilities at Lexington in April, 1775, until November, 1777, since which there has been no event of any consequence …

I think that upon the whole it has been about one half the number lost by them, in some instances more, but in others less. This difference is ascribed to our superiority in taking aim when we fire; every soldier in our army having been intimate with his gun from his infancy.” - Thomas Jefferson, letter to Giovanni Fabbroni, June 8, 1778

SECOND AMENDMENT

Right to Bear Arms

Passed by Congress September 25, 1789. Ratified December 15, 1791. The first 10 amendments form the Bill of Rights:

A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.

I’m scared of a BB gun, I’d never even want to pick up one of those guns.
