Love that map every time I see it!!!
My city is that tiny green speck southwest of where the James River meets the city of Richmond. Chesterfield County to our north and west (lots of good 2A people; but, the Richmond ‘burbs outvote them!); Hopewell to our east and Petersburg to our south. (The latter two cities are both strongholds for U.S. Congressman Donald McEachin, the author of the, now infamous, quote about the Va governor “nationalizing” the Va. National Guard.)
In the immortal words of the late Lt.Gen. Lewis B. “Chesty” Puller, “We’re surrounded; that simplifies the problem!” (Chosin Reservoir)
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.
