This is what the true Left does when it gains power. The first step is to disarm the populace.

After that, all bets are off.

And don't think it can't happen here.

Western Virginia is largely descended from the Scots-Irish that in a title of a book, Born Fighting, have been very willing to resist authority, from the British Crown in Ulster and colonial America to the Union Army in 1861 to the “revenuers” in the 20th Century. Interestingly, other liberal states have not been too aggressive in mass gun confiscation.

It remains to be seen whether the Virginia Legislature will be more aggressive than their counterparts in other liberal states. As long as Trump controls the military and National Guard, the State government will not get Federal military assistance. However, it appears he has minimal control over Federal law enforcement.

I wonder how many of the NRA members, 2nd Amendment advocates and other “patriots” stayed home on election day? The real patriots are those who go out and vote against the tyranny of the left.

It will happen here. When I can’t say, but as the number of snowflakes increase and the others decrease....

Yep. They don’t want citizens, they want subjects, and yes, it can happen. I am pretty sure that white Christian men will be the first ones lined up against the wall. 👎
