Second Amendment Sanctuary Cities For The Win
Townhall.com ^ | Decembember 26, 2019 | Kurt Schlichter

It’s glorious how the normal people of Virginia are rising up to reject Governor Blackface … or is it Governor KKK-klothes? He can’t seem to remember which one he was in the photo, meaning he had probably donned both creepy get-ups at some point. Yay, our Democrat betters! In any case, the people are telling him, “No, we’re not letting you goose-stepping Bloomberg bots take our guns,” and it is especially glorious that the means to make this righteous commitment is a new, and not garbage, sanctuary movement.

I’ve always been an advocate of playing by the left’s new rules, and this is a great opportunity to new rules the libs good and hard. We got your sanctuary right here, pinkos.

See, the left decided that Virginia, whose northern reaches are now full of government workers and other garbage people, needed to turn blue. With tons of lib donor money and the aid of a typically inept state GOP (I know those feel here in California), they managed to just barely grab control of both houses of the legislature. With Governor Byrd-Jolson in charge, they immediately promised to do away with the Second Amendment. They announced that they were going to confiscate the citizens’ scary guns and do all sorts of other things to show those disobedient, probably Jesus-loving rubes who was boss.

Except, as Chairman Mao – who you think these dorks would appreciate more – pointed out, power grows from the barrel of a gun, not out of a mean tweet.

Instantly, everyone outside the garbage counties locked and loaded their freedom and so the Second Amendment sanctuary movement began. County after county, and many cities, all committed to resisting if the state tried enforcing unconstitutional gun laws against normal citizens. And it was beautiful. The Dems wet themselves.

Remember, these normals won’t hurt anyone who doesn’t mess with them. They work, raise children, pray, and they keep guns for the defense of themselves, their families, their communities and their Constitution. They didn’t get the memo that said they were supposed to just roll over and become subjects instead of citizens.

After all, Virginians aren’t Canadians.

The Democrats freaked out, stunned that normal people responded to their diktats with middle fingers instead of abject submission. One lib threatened to turn the National Guard on the people of Virginia, which is a neat trick since the National Guard is made up of the people of Virginia. As a colonel who served for years in the National Guard (Remember the Rodney King riots? My time in them on the good guy’s side reaffirmed why I believe every able-bodied, healthy American adult should have a real assault rifle in his/her/xir house), I can safely say this would be a poor idea. Sure, some bootlickers might participate in such manifestly illegal warfare on free Americans, but most soldiers would – as is their obligation – refuse to commit such crimes. In fact, if Governor Duke Trudeau ever did consider the mass oppression of American citizens by military forces as his fellow Democrat threatened, the President should federalize the Virginia Guard and use it to restore a republican form of government in the state.

In any case, the Democrats have finally found a kind of sanctuary city they won’t goo goo over – one that protects the constitutional rights of American citizens instead of one that undermines and breaks the duly-enacted laws passed by the American people’s representatives for the benefit of foreigners who shouldn’t be here in the first place.

This kind of civil disobedience is absolutely justified in the face of manifestly unconstitutional threats to the Bill of Rights. The liberals think the Constitution is some sort of cafeteria, where they get to pick and chose the rights they will enforce – usually rights that aren’t even in the Constitution in the first place. But this only works if American citizens go along with it, and they are not going to.

As much fun as it is to humiliate their garbage governor, the people of Virginia are doing something more important. They are getting woke. This urban lib attack on regular folks – an attack totally unprovoked and being executed solely for the sheer lefty joy of making normal people bend to their will – has roused a sleeping giant. Many of those uncool people, most of whom don’t eat kale or have unusual pronouns, did not bother to vote in recent elections. Then they found that the Democrats were planning to send people with weapons to their homes to steal the tools that keep them safe and free.

The people got woke.

And the Second Amendment sanctuary movement is only the start. Next election, those people will be out and angry and armed with their ballots. The Dems have backtracked a bit, but it’s too late. They lit the fuse and it will blow up in their smug, goateed faces. As a Republican, it’s always amazing when you see that there’s another party whose leadership is dumber than the one at the helm of your party. For no good reason, simply because of cultural contempt and spite, the Democrats had to antagonize and awaken the somnolent normals of Virginia by posing an existential threat to them. It was so unnecessary – not one of the teachers, cops, insurance salesmen, farmers, housewives and such who mobbed the local meetings and forced local governments to mutiny against tyranny was ever going to hurt anyone with their guns except people who needed to be hurt. But no, the Dems couldn’t resist. They had to show those hicks who were in charge.

Well, we just found out who is really in charge.

I see he’s calling out the Judiciary for not supporting it even thought it is right there in the Constitution plainly worded.

Yes, and Thomas knows the court doesn't want to do its job.

Roberts is a disaster. GW Bush appointed him as Chief Justice, and the Senate tally in his vote was 78-22. Clearly, Deep State Washington D.C. knew they had an ally.

Hope you and your family had a great Christmas.

I got that for years where I voted in S. Florida.

That crooked sumb*tch Alcee Hastings was my rep.

When I went to vote the single GOP voter roll was manilla folder size and the Dems needed several encyclopedia size binders.

Photo ID was frostily refused by the all black Dem “poll workers”, I offered it every time just to twist their shorts.

I was the single white sprinkle on the chocolate cup cake most years.

What’s playing out in Virginia is a harbinger for the rest of the United States. Northam has shown himself to be an amoral despot. He is making a government move against law abiding citizens who could stand against his future tyranny. If Virginians can stand up to him, it bodes well for the country. If Virginians allow themselves to be crushed...

This is what drives me a little bit coo-coo. They did not even bother to show up.

Large numbers of people pay no attention to politics.

It is normalcy bias.

Politicians have not been an active threat, as they have perceived it, for their entire life.

Maybe this will wake them up.

It's my understanding that Petersburg is now a city taken over by "Gibs-me-dats".

If they want to provoke another Civil War let them try to touch Monument Avenue in Richmond.

Sorry to hear you are surrounded by enemies on all sides. Sigh. I used to go through Hopewell and down route 10, through Smithfield and Suffolk to avoid the traffic on i64.

“Even though I don’t live in Virginia, I say, “YAY!” to those who are standing up against a tyrannical state government.”

We here in TN had a similar problem a few years back when the vile RINO POS Sundquist tried to impose a state income tax. We taxpayers, led by our current, great Senator Marsha Blackburn, stopped the turd in his tracks by massive, mostly peaceful, resistance that included repeatedly mobbing the capitol and massive anti-tax rallies, one of which I attended. It reached the point where Sundquist couldn’t even attend a public Republican meeting without being booed off the stage. He’s a nonperson now.

VA FReepers: Follow our example, fight this pure evil, crime promoting horror and WIN.

Sounds like this type of action is what needed nationwide in order to get this country back on track.

Petersburg has been a mess for at least 30 years ...don't know which is worse w/regard to their city government; corruption or ineptness. It is like Richmond (w/o the monuments) on a smaller scale.

I guess if we have to make a “strategic withdrawal;” we still own 20+ acres on Stony Creek in central Dinwiddie County. After that the nearest avenue of escape would be WV! ;^)

That said, I plan to stay and fight as long as possible. Sure hope all the complainers here on FR are supporting VCDL ...they do more for grassroots 2A support than anyone else here in the Old Dominion!

As evidenced by The People’s Choice,A/k/a, barack obama, etal., corruption, treachery, and betrayal is always disguised as ineptness. The sheep accept and adjust to it more willingly and calmly.

It won't fly.

The Supreme Court is taking another 2nd Amendment case now that Kennedy is off the court. Soon Ruth Buzzard will be gone and then the logjam will really break and there will be a flood of precedent setting rulings to crush the various unconstitutional gun grabs in various states.

We must re-elect President Trump and make sure he has as large a majority as possible in the Senate to keep the flow of strict constructionist judges going into the federal judiciary.

Yes, you have nailed it.

We are in the middle of a peaceful revolution.

The Left is pulling out all stops to prevent it.
