So if grand juries in DC will only indict Democrats, Can’t they change venue like they do with other cases? After seeing the jury for Stone, justice cannot be had there.
All cases allowed one change of venue
Three choices given. Defense strike one. Prosecution strike one. The end up wherever is left.
Virginia assault weapon ban fails after moderate Democrats break with party to reject it.
The rejection comes as a loss to Gov. Ralph Northam, who had championed the bill and has made reducing gun violence in the state a top priority. As part of a broad package of gun control measures, Senate Democrats passed three gun control bills that would restrict monthly gun purchases, expand background checks on firearms, and allow localities to ban guns in designated areas in January.
Virginia has thus become a heated epicenter of the nation’s debate over guns. While Northam’s calls have received support from those looking to end gun violence, gun rights activists have accused him of trying to infringe upon their Second Amendment rights. Tens of thousands marched in Richmond last month to protest the bevy of legislation, and more than 80 Virginia counties have declared themselves “Second Amendment sanctuaries.”
