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.

Exactly!
And do any research into how totalitarian regimes were able to oppress and terrorize their people- it was through the police going along with the regime, and doing the dirty work.
It's not meant to offend, but this is why police, along with Congress, should be required to complete and pass a mandatory course on our Constitution, every 2 years, in order to continue in their jobs.
LEO'S do good work, but, Constitutional principles are not taught with any competence, (and haven't been for a long time), in our educational system.
I imagine most people couldn't pass a basic test on them. And this could leave the door open for potential Marxists or Democrats to start taking people's rights away.
That is cool. I bet you have a great time. It sounds like it couldn’t be put on by better guys. Thanks and good luck on going if you can.
Blue helmets at 300 yards....very fun.
As far as I know, the only way that they could coerce them to do it would be with warrants. That would be an expensive, slow and legally difficult process.
It’s becoming increasingly more obvious that Democrats are working for foreign interests, especially corrupt foreign oligarchs and communist parties.
Could the president nationalize the Va. Guard,and then order them to stand down?
CC
A governor can call the Guard out for state active duty, but he cannot nationalize it.
_______________________________________
I seriously doubt the guard can perform LE duties. Remember the Posse Comitatus Act prohibits the military from performing arrests, searches and seizure and other critical LE activities. I am quite sure this Act applies to the national guard. The guard is relegated to working in a support role to LE. The State Police generally are confined to the roadways. That leaves the political appointed urban hacks - the police departments to run roughshod over their domain. The only LE force that matters in the county is the sheriff, at least those sheriff departments that were smart enough to retain their full Constitutional LE powers.
The best "What is Coming" series of books.
“But when your State AG and Governor start having Guard troops point guns at you”
Point back. It worked in 1776.
The audiobook versions are awesome as well. I highly recommend them.
“If they mean to have a war, let it begin here.”
There will be no war. Neither the sherrifs, nor the national guard will obey the governor in large numbers outside of N VA. The state police may, for a while.
Northam, having failed to resign in disgrace when he should have, is going to get another chance if he chooses to enact and enforce this law.
Yes.
Eisenhower did it when the governor of Arkansas tried to use the NG to enforce segregation in Little Rock.
But wait, the law’s not the law when it comes to illegals...
Either way, their plan to prosecute officers is laughable; not only do they have a zillion little immunities that protect them from it, they also have some solid SCOTUS decisions stating that law enforcement is optional for an officer.
WTF !!! is this dipstick New guber for REAL !?!?!?
Who does he think is going to hop into
jackboots and do this ?
And BTW Who has the list of where all that AMMO that WE PAID FOR A FEW YEARS AGO UNDER THE zer0 ?
Did the nutcase weather screwup’$ stash their supply in the NEXTRAD Huts ?
I’m really sick of these grabberscum even opening their mouths. If they think their ball or ovaries are big enough to disarm law abiding Citizen’s then let’s see their eyes at the door knocking. All alone, away from the bodyguards sucking like leeches on their a$$$. Just come on up to the door and knock like a civilized person (or EBE) if possible.
But they won’t because they’re chickensheets.
I spat in your direction ralphypunk !!!
SWEET Graphics !!!!
The frog pot is getting warmer and warmer.
The problem is that those L.P. Tanks Are about outta fuel and the frogs will be exiting the Spa Bathhouse.
Are You and Yours doing OK ?
In some cases, Guard members are “deputized” and given limited law enforcement authority.
My unit was mobilized as part of the Inaugural security in 2009, and we were all “sworn” and deputized for a 72-hour period
With the demonratcommiescumbaginfantileantifathugs, all Our side has to do is whittle out some AR looking Pine and spray some Light Grey Primer on it and then hang it above the Door or lean it against the front porch or a tree in the yard.
Let them come and GET IT...
Just like showing a hungry Dog a Pizza or Hamburger, Doggies gonna go for it.
Bonus points if we tape a Paper Towel Tube under the front there for scaring them REALLY BAD because that means we have 40mm Grenade Tubes. (but don’t let them see the Rounds are really Dog Turds.)
And beware the crooked wall pics...
This is gonna be a whole 'nuther animal though.
Pack a bag... The Watch is not yet done. III%.
The Law is the Law until it’s overruled. By SCOTUS and/or We The People.
