I wish is were that simple.

I suspect something far more nefarious in purpose.

Huge amounts of leftist $ have been pouring into the state for a while. In previous campaigns, it tended to support the green agenda.

Lately, some of it has gone to fund radical prosecutors( they are elected in each locality here), mostly in Northern Virginia.

State secession is not unconstitutional. So your example does not apply.

I predict no National Guard Soldiers will participate in this. Your typical guard soldier loves guns, fights for freedom, is joe average. Many are law enforcement. All have sworn an oath to defend the nation against all enemies both foreign and DOMESTIC and they know the constitution better than most.

Might be a few butt kissing officers. But they are smart enough to know that your first confiscation mission would end in death.

Every Sheriff in those 85 counties should issue an arrest warrant for the AG for illegal actions under the color of law.

We don’t really want to revisit this subject, do we?

The result will be the same as last time....

He is a black man and does not know Virginia history. Virginia raised volunteer militias from the earliest days.

I have a feeling he may be surprised by the amount of sudden interest in Virginia by out of state tourists.

I don’t know...there’s been so many absolutely, outrageous actions taken against us, and yet, we sit...waiting for election day. As someone else mentioned, ‘our founders would have been shooting by now’

Our Founders lived in a vastly simpler period of time than we do.

Egging on the 2Aers to pull the trigger first is part of the game plan.

> “This will not happen here.”

Very likely you are correct BUT ... yours is not a 100% certainty. But what is certain is HOW THEY THINK.

There is another scenario that contradicts yours and it’s not completely far-fetched. To agree it’s not impossible one only needs to look at what they’ve already done and what their lawyer princes like Tribe suggest such as let the Senate have a ‘secret’ vote.

Expand your thinking and be aware of HOW THEY THINK:

http://freerepublic.com/focus/chat/3801204/posts?page=37#26

... look what the Governor of Virginia is planning to do. He will call up the National Guard to enforce gun confiscation.

Why are the events in Virginia and the farce of impeachment related?

When the Democrat mafia leans on 20 compromised GOP Senators, they know there will be an assault on DC by smelly American Walmart deplorables.

Leftists are going to disarm Virginia. And Virginia’s National Guard will presumably be waiting for deplorables to hit DC with plans to torch those that sold out America.

This is what Leftists do, it’s what they have done in dozens of other countries and they will do it in the US around the DC area where they will take control of the Army (legally how? See below.). The Army will put down insurrections by American deplorables. They will write history to say they saved the American ‘democracy’ from the hands of a dictator and his fascist followers.

Truth doesn’t matter to these people. Truth never mattered to communists.

Power is all that matters.

They don’t need to control Maryland because Maryland is a suburb of DC populated by people of the federal government. The federal government is Maryland’s first industry.

But Virginia still has red counties populated by deplorables that believe in the ridiculous outdated parchment called the Constitution. So it has to be disarmed and put down.

They will take out Pence in some manner and Nancy Pelosi will be installed as President and Commander in Chief.

They are doing this because otherwise all of their corruption will land them in jail. In their minds they have no other choice other than to overthrow the US Government and call it impeachment and salvation of democracy.

This is not new. It’s happened before this way in other countries. It’s just that Americans cannot believe that it would ever happen here.

"Don’t these phony AGs and LEOs understand what”SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED” means? Or don’t they give a bleep?"

If a couple of the VA State Police goon squads are taken out there will be calls for Trump and F Troop to do their dirty work.

If they go through with this insanity gov. Black face and any member of his administration should be told by these counties you are not welcome in our counties or towns. Our law enforcement will not protect you, you are on your own.

Richmond says they can withhold funding that’s true but these counties can not send in collected taxes and use them to operate and they can start cutting off resources to the blue counties, electrical, water, food etc... it could get nasty real quick. In a revolution the first shot is the hardest, after that the following rounds are easier.

I think this stupid-looking minor royalty of our aristocracy forgot where the authority lies in this country. He needs a refresher course.

There is most definitely a connection between the aim to disarm Virginia and its proximity to DC. Also, a large number of federal employees actually live in VA.

Another interesting fact is how many active and retired military live here.

Hmm, that may be catching...

I’d love that too.

Apparently not. An earlier post claimed he said living where you want is a basic right, not subject to any law, but gun ownership is not. I think I’ll move into his house.

If push comes to shove, every American must support the Americans in Virginia because where we one go, eventually we all go. I used the term “American” over the terms “Resident” or “Citizen” because all that live here are either residents or citizens, but not all are Americans. Americans are a special creature. They come in all colors, sizes, and shapes. Americans are difficult to define, but each one knows the other when they meet.
