You could have mentioned that the Virginia Governor is that Clinton ass-kisser POS McAuliffe.
More people die in car acidents than by firearms.
By this fact all these other states should not accept virginia drivers’ licenses.
Start playing by democrat rules. After all these other states have no idea how well virginia is teaching driving. They have a lot of different traffic laws than other states. And these dates cannot guarantee the quality of virginia drivers and the dangers they pose to their states’ citizens.
Writing the governor of Virginia is a total wast of time.
You can not reason with a liberal.
In some manner, conservatives in VA need to get the legislature back in session and force his hand through legislation.
I live in NC and travel VA quite a bit. This is very bad news for me.
As for reciprocity, I thought that the legislature set the conditions, not the governor nor his lackey.
In the meantime, VA still has open carry. I have never liked to open carry, but where I go , I go armed.
Liberals are such jerks. They must ruin everyone else’s pleasure to get any pleasures of their own.
When the governor travels out of state, they should force his armed security detail to disarm.
So, next year when I go to the TransAm race at VIR, I will make my lodging and meals business in Roxboro, NC.
When are these stupid leftists going to try and understand the simple laws of physics?
McAuliff is a Clintonista, and none of this should come as a surprise.
So the question becomes, can you (meaning CCW permit holders and gun lovers in general) generate enough support in the legislature to remove the Punk and his AG?
There was some other BS regarding guns that McAuliff wanted to do last summer, but I have forgotten what it was.
It will likely not only NOT save lives,it places those who carry on their way through Virginia who previously did so legally at risk from all comers, be they criminal or police.
Typical Liberal. The unintended consequences to people who are not a problem far outweigh the likely effects on those who are the problem--assuming that the objective was not to create a whole new group of on-paper, background checked, no previous record, new felony criminals in the first place.
Any state on the list should require his security detail to disarm or place them under arrest the second they cross the border.
States rights are important with many issues but *not* issues like the First Amendment,the Second Amendment or the Fifth Amendment (among other things).
Or so the liberals think.
A day is coming, and possibly quite soon, where freedom loving Americans are going to rise up and throw off this oppressive government......by force.
There won't be enough lamp posts for all the rope needed to purge the country of the 'progressives'.
No matter how wrong, Virginians can no longer get anything right!
I can abbreviate that letter for you:
“Dear Carpetbagging SOB,
FU”
McAwful doesn’t give a rat’s behind for Virginians who legally carry guns. Like his idols, the Clintons and Obola, he is only concerned with the citizens that voted for him.
“with all due respect”
Since no respect whatsoever is due, I don’t know what to think of that phrase.
SO... Since I drive from Florida through the two Carolinas and Georgia to get to my Virginia destination I must now travel unprotected? Guess I won’t be seeing the family there if this decision stands!
I will not vacation in Virginia as there are many safer places to spend my money.
The Govenor replies:
Dear Mr. Hex,
Thank you for your recent support for my decision to bar outsiders from carrying dangerous weapons on Virginian soil.
This is a good first step towards keeping these dangerous weapons off our streets. It is my intention to direct the legislature to enact common sense gun laws that include removing the shall issue provisions of our concealed carry law, and this will allow us to remove even more dangerous handguns from our streets.
Thank you again for your support in this matter.
Signed,
Gov. Terry McAuliffe
This, coming from a state that allows for anyone to apply for a Virginia CCW permit after taking their 1-hour online training class ?? Without even demonstrating basic competency at a real live range ??
Any CCW class in the state of Texas, for example, would be much more thorough than this, and Virginia is not recognizing CCW permit holders from other states that have real live training classes with required range tests ??
Also, Virginia’s background checks for CCW applicants are no different than any other state’s process.
This is a transparently stupid attempt to simply take rights away from lawful gun owners.
