Writing the governor of Virginia is a total wast of time.

You can not reason with a liberal.

In some manner, conservatives in VA need to get the legislature back in session and force his hand through legislation.

I live in NC and travel VA quite a bit. This is very bad news for me.

As for reciprocity, I thought that the legislature set the conditions, not the governor nor his lackey.

In the meantime, VA still has open carry. I have never liked to open carry, but where I go , I go armed.

Liberals are such jerks. They must ruin everyone else’s pleasure to get any pleasures of their own.

They do. The problem, as I understand it, is that one of the conditions set by the legislature is that the reciprocal state must have requirements that are as strict or stricter than Virginia's in other words, if the other state would grant a permit to someone to whom Virginia would not, that state is not eligible for reciprocity). Of course, because different states structure their laws differently, determining whether another state's laws are as strict as Virginia's is entirely subjective, which gives the governor plenty of latitude to do what he did here.

With a sane governor, it's not really a problem. But now....
