Thank goodness they held a rally! Bet it made them feel real good, anyhow.
Hope that happens here in Colorado!
Hopefully this will result in a giant lawsuit against the state.
Yes, Gov. Coonman...you and your treasonous ilk take that first step. Right into the landmine.
Texas got it right in 1836.
“It has demanded us to deliver up our arms, which are essential to our defence, the rightful property of freemen, and formidable only to tyrannical governments.”
“...TYRANNICAL GOVERNMENTS.”
Going to ban suppressors?
They have no idea who owns those, I know several of my products are in VA, and it was not the ‘Po Folk’ who bought them at around $3K each!
They may just find that their next round of fundraising does not go well.
And the suppressor owners will have Standing for their suit as the law robs them of the value of their property.
Just another example of knee-jerk extremism, ONE known example of a suppressor being used in a crime, out of tens of thousands legally owned, and here comes another ‘Ban’.
I won’t call them Idiots, that would be insulting to real Idiots, these drones are not smart enough to be Idiots!
Suppressors? Sorry, Federal law trumps State law. Suppressors are legal...with the proper BATFE paperwork. Or does Virginia think the 10th amendment gives them the power to ban suppressors? I know if you go up the Bill of Rights by 8 amendments, you’ll find one that has “shall not be infringed” in its language.
I refuse to comply.
Wait, you’re telling me in VA if you own an AR-15 you must turn it in? or is it now illegal, what does that even mean to ban AR-15’s?
Have the sanctuary counties meet somewhere friendly in far western Virginia like Lynchburg. Draft articles of secession to either form another state or to join WV or TN. Article’s should state that Richmond no longer represents the culture and interests of the sanctuary counties and that said counties respectively ask to form a government or join another state that is more representative of their culture and their needs. Send formal letters of interest to those two states & to Congress as well as the VA state house. Make the Rat Va government react! It will generate a ton of negative PR on the Northam Richmond government in particular & on Rats in general. It will be beautiful if the PR gets the Rat debates to talk about it. Its a PR battle! If there’s violence Va (all of us!) lose! Anyone who wants to parade around & wave guns like they’re a modern a P G T Beauregard is not helping! That’s what the left expects! The need to go home & cool their jets! Make the media interview women & children asking why the state of Va wants to imprison, kill their fathers & grandpas to take their guns.
effective July 1.
Going hard....
Buy your AR15s before July 1!
(And also, "The Second Amendment protects an individual right to possess a firearm unconnected with service in a militia, and to use that arm for traditionally lawful purposes".) They'll pass the law, and Governor Coonman will sign it, and lawsuits will immediately be filed.)
Guns are only the tip of the iceberg for Virginians. Once Democrats are in control they are not afraid to use their power to abuse the general populace. Step one is to start with guns since a good portion of the state population is uninformed about their use and its a feel good issue. If this issue doesnt meet enough resistance for repeal, they will move on to voter registration, union favoritism (already in the works), growth of government to create a large voting block, growth of welfare, etc.. All of these items are designed to ensure they will remain in power at the ballot box. Once their base is secure, look for higher taxes, loss of personal rights, unchecked immigration, and further modeling of the state into another New York or California.
The next election is critical. Get out the vote to oust these Democrats or prepare to vote with your feet.
It might be popcorn time but I think it’ll go into popcorn sounds of gunfire.
“I will fight ‘till your death to keep my assault rifle with a suppressor and all my 100 round magazines”
“Gun advocates flooded the committee hearing room and were cleared out after the vote when there were some angry reactions.”
Tyrants like to steal your rights in secrecy.
Right! Don’t cede an inch to the bastards.
These bills may well be unconstitutional. But not in the way you think. The Virginia Bill of Rights has broader protections of individual liberty than the US Constitution.
There may well be relief there that cannot be won with a federal challenge.
That’s exactly the kind of legislation that Brett Kavanaugh argued against. Offending some women by repeatedly posting information about his opinions and information about his opposition was worth it.
