'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.

So if a city doesn’t want to enforce immigration laws, that’s okay. But if they refuse to enforce unconstitutional laws, it’s a problem.

Yep, it will include any semiautomatic rifle that can accept a detachable magazine. Including your old M1 carbine.

Because you don’t engage the storm troopers. You go after the politicians who made the unconstitutional laws. If a few of them are hanged from lamp posts, the rest will quickly get the message that they overplayed their hands and tyranny will not be tolerated.

But the governor does have the power to call up the NG in his state.

If I were these sanctuary counties at the instance of the first raid in the state and especially if they arrested any local law enforcement or elected county official for failure to comply I would have my law enforcement find the Virginia State Police officers stationed in that county and detain them indefinitely until all local sheriff’s, leo’s or detained county leaders were released by gov. blackface.

If they began calling up the Guard I would also let it be known if they fire on Virginia citizens they will be arrested in that county, held in jail and prosecuted. If the Virginia Commonwealth attorneys refuse to cooperate arrest them and hold them as well. I would also let gov. blackface know, do not set foot in our county ever again.

These people are wanting to force a war upon law abiding, peaceful people, at some point you just have to say no to the tyrants. This could get really messy, really fast.
