When Democrats took the majority in Virginia the last election, they quickly put on the table a package of radical laws that were set to limit Virginians’ Second Amendment rights, including closing down every shooting range not owned by the government, hindering their ability to form militias, severely limiting gun sale transfers, as well as fresh registration bills.
Within the first 48 hours of taking over the Virginia legislature in 2020, Democrats passed their first of many proposed gun laws and banned the carry of firearms on the property of the state capitol and other government offices.
The people of Virginia spoke up and declared it would be their last term in office. The government responded with a motion to eliminate voter ID laws.
Virginia decided then that they wouldn’t wait for another election. A petition to remove Governor Northam began circulating as well as other petitions to remove delegates from office. When the petition received almost a third of the signatures needed to recall the governor, a new bill was introduced to raise the amount of signatures needed from 10% of the prevailing vote, to 25%.
Oh, but it doesn’t stop there! Other bills in session in the 2020 legislature:
SJ 6 – Which changes the governor’s term from 4 to 8 years. SB 399 – Virginia’s electoral votes for president will go to the candidate who has won the national popular vote. It will no longer matter who many Virginians vote for in presidential races. SJ 9 and SJ 14 – Restores felons’ abilities to vote. SJ 29 – Changes how Governors, Lieutenant Governor and Attorney General are elected. Previously, the candidate receiving the most votes statewide would be elected. Proposed: change to who wins the majority in Congressional districts. In case of a tie, the General Assembly...

First move of tyrants, disarm the people.
“VA has way more Republicans then Democrats.”
Only if you subtract NOVA.
WVA has offered to take us Western VA counties in as part of West Virginia. I hope my county takes them up on the offer. I live 7 miles from the border as it is.
I hope they revolt and overthrow this obvious tyrant to constitutional republics and free people.
Remember a revolt is the people dealing with an unlawful tyrant/government. A rebellion is unlawful uprising against a proper government.
Revolt - people are on the side of right
Rebellion - government is on the side of right
Often the wrong side tries to portray itself as right, when it clearly isn’t
And try to cement their power in.

My Mammy song by Joe Young and Sam M. Lewis (Al Jolson sang in blackface but was actually introduced in 1918 by William Frawley who was Fred Mertz in I Love Lucy)
Mammy, Mammy, I'm comin',
I'm so sorry that I made you wait!
Mammy, Mammy, I'm comin'!
Oh God, I hope I'm not late!
Look at me, Mammy! Don't you know me?
I'm your little baby!
I'd walk a million miles
For one of your smiles,
My Mammy!
Dad use to say we go overseas to fight the enemy so we don’t have to fight them in our back yard. How did they get in our back yard?
Great NRA ad has a Venezuelan woman who said the government told us it was better for us and safer to collect all the guns. But the gangs, the druglords and the officials andthe corrupt police still have all the guns they want. We live in terror and are helpless without weapons against them.
As they say a government takes all the guns if it's about to do something terrible and doesn't want you armed to defend yourself.
Great lines. We should remember this.
Certainly.
Winning!
Being in Virginia you will excuse me for saying only that we are fighting a valiant defensive battle for the moment, winning not so much.
sorry if I seem a touch pessimistic.
Good gravy, what do you think the word "Trump" means anyway? /ba-dum t'sssh>
not yet but it will. Article 1 Section 10 will be violated when it does. It is the definition of ex post facto.
they didn’t vote because of RINO’s put up by the RINO GOP here. The party chairman is a Democrat hiding in our party and the entire leadership needs to go. but, county chairmen are appointed by the state chairman so there is no way to remove them.
“There are four boxes to be used in the defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo. Please use in that order.”

I’m saying “at this point” because we are now at your judge and jury box. If the courts fail us on protecting our rights by refusing to affirm those rights under the supreme law of the Constitution, then all bets are off. Q says “trust the plan,” but that plan to not get in the way of the enemy when he’s destroying himself is severely testing the patience of the American people. I willing put my trust in God every day, but being asked to place it in the hands of mortal men is fine for awhile, but it has limits. You can only bake a cake so long before you ruin it. In my opinion, ‘the plan’ needs to come out of the oven now, put some frosting on it and serve it up for the November election.
There are more registered Republicans than Democrats in Virginia.
