Or, more succinctly:

Mr. Herring, how do you propose to find as may useful idiots willing to die for your political ambitions as there are those willing to die protecting their Constitutional rights?

VA’s motto has become either the most prophetic or ironic state motto, ever.

Fun is not the point.
When it starts the point will be to exterminate liberals and Democrats wherever they are found.

"If the democrats are this brazen while Americans are armed to the teeth, think of how they would be if we were unarmed."

So true. The Marxist Rats are trying to provoke an incident that they can then crush as a message that opposition will be met with lethal force. We need to make sure that we win the coming civil war however we do it.

Notice that I modified my comment. I was employing a bit of sarcasm.

Kinda hard to drive to a Red Flag op on somebody when everyone is firing on the procession from their front porch on both sides of the roads. These people don’t know what they are getting into

This will turnout to be a border war. NC, TN, WV, are conservative states and the citizens will gladly act by providing logistical and manpower. If the revolution is to start, let it begin here.

So do ‘sanctuary cities’ that ignore federal law have ‘no force’ either?

The President may have to step in and arrest the Governor of Virginia.

Do you honestly believe that has even the slightest nonzero probability of happening?

Trump can federalize the VA Nat’l Guard in the event that Northam tries to use them to enforce his gun BS.

As soon as the first weapon affected by this law is seized by law enforcement, the dynamics change dramatically and a line is crossed that is not easily crossed back over.

The first LEO to participate in that seizure makes all LEOs, irrespective of their Constitutional leaning, a combatant for however long they remain with the LE agency conducting the seizure(s).

At that point, the LEO “us versus them” mentality becomes manifest reality. They’ll have to worry whether or not that welfare check they’re sent to is not in reality a well planned ambush. Is it a traffic stop, or an assassination? How safe is their family as they stack up outside the door of the next seizure op? Makes one wonder how one can live an entire life in up-armored mode.....

According to the article, so far 86 out of 95 Virginia counties have declared themselves 2nd Amendment sanctuaries. That is 91% of Virginia counties, plus about 20 independent cities. I imagine the only counties which haven't done so are the cluster of counties closest to DC.

I say if CW2 is ready to begin, then let's get it on.

States must apply all aspects of the constitution equally, otherwise the federal government can act on the state. Anyone remember the civil war?
