'The law is the law': Virginia Democrats float prosecution and National Guard for police who fail to enforce gun control legislation
Washington Examiner ^ | 11 December 2019 | Kerry Picket

Posted on 12/12/2019 3:44:33 AM PST by Erik Latranyi

Democratic lawmakers on Capitol Hill say local police who do not enforce gun control measures likely to pass in Virginia should face prosecution and even threats of the National Guard.

After November's Virginia Legislature elections that led to Democrats taking control of both chambers, the gun control legislation proposed by some Democrats moved forward, including universal background checks, an “assault weapons” ban, and a red flag law.

Legal firearm owners in the state, however, joined with their sheriffs to form Second Amendment sanctuary counties, which declare the authorities in these municipalities uphold the Second Amendment in the face of any gun control measure passed by Richmond.

If the fur does start to fly in Virginia how do the rest of us support and aid?

Any ideas.

Democrats do not crack down on real criminals or gangs....they go soft on criminals and gangs so they multiply and harass citizens....in the hopes that citizens beg the Democrats for salvation from the criminals by giving up their money and power.

Oh they understand it perfectly. They hope the sheep don’t. And up to now, they have been proven right.

So they are going to prove lawful gun owners correct by using the threat of government gun violence to steal away the Constitutional rights of citizens.

Perhaps the government should have no right to threaten citizens by pointing guns at them. Take the guns away from crazy politicians.

Yes. They will need intel on the inside the most, followed by comms, ammo, meds, and safe sanctuary, maybe smuggling for them.

Gotta find out the where the Feds are keeping safehouses with the remaining traitors.

Gotta find them. Nits make lice.

Good thing about deputizing the citzenry is Title 2 (NFA) guns on LEO ATF Form 10s for everyone! Yippee! (I'll pay for an M240 please, Sheriff).

Supply ammo, food and give sanctuary across state lines where Virginia cannot reach them.

Help arm them and for those who are able-bodied, go to their side and fight with them.

Virginia residents who cannot fight, join the other side and provide useful intel. They will spy on us, we can do the same.

But the key must be to take out the leadership and cut the head of the snake off. Do not get caught up in fighting those sent against the citizenry.

“can’t”

Search on “ governor summons national guard” and see when it has happened.

Also, what will cloud a guard’s decision is the potential dishonorable discharge and loss of benefits, sorta like with LEOs, who have never turned down a red flag raid.

This is why the public needs guns on par with the military.

Day of reckoning for these libtard progressives mofos is fast coming, bet. The Northern Virginia arseholes are utterly driven to wreck this once great state for which I reside in. Sh*t going to get real and get real soon enough....

You’re right, and that approach puts tremendous pressure on them. They face a very tough decision. Try to remain incognito, hoping that friends and neighbors don’t let it out that they are un-American and helped pass un-Constitutional laws...or go conspicuous with a large security detail - that just marks them as someone who knows they’ve done wrong and are trying to hide from the consequences.

They don't necessarily mean to have a war, Laz. But they have full intentions of gaining total and complete control of the population including having the power of life or death of them at their whim. If it takes a war to accomplish that, so be it.

Translation of the above paragraph: We are going to have fight and perhaps die or die without fighting. If we are going to fight, it should be on our terms where there is at least a chance of survival. If we wait and fight on their terms, there will be no chance of survival, only the opportunity to die as men and women. Winston Churchill had a great quote on that in either the late thirties or early forties. He described it to a tee.

If you submit, they will just kill or subjugate you later. The Dems are in an awful hurry; if they just waited, demographics would win it for them, but their rush gives us an opportunity to show them the consequences of their insane lust for power and control.

Many people have been praying that their wrong-doing would be exposed. They are showing their hand by being in too much of a hurry.

A governor can call the Guard out for state active duty, but he cannot “nationalize” it.

I did a number of state missions for hurricanes, blizzards, etc

"They are pushing for a civil war. I wonder which country has pledged its support to the denmocrats? China perhaps?"

Mexico for sure..!! They get the southwest as payment.. That's what the invasion is all about. The left (commies) needs soldiers..

Democrats reveal what happens when they have absolute power...

Agreed. This is a preview, a wake up call. No-one should vote for a democrat for any office/position, not even dog catcher. The entire party has been infiltrated and subverted to un-American and anti-American leftist ideology.
