'The law is the law': Virginia Democrats float prosecution and National Guard for police who fail to enforce gun control legislation
Washington Examiner ^ | 11 December 2019 | Kerry Picket

Democratic lawmakers on Capitol Hill say local police who do not enforce gun control measures likely to pass in Virginia should face prosecution and even threats of the National Guard.

After November's Virginia Legislature elections that led to Democrats taking control of both chambers, the gun control legislation proposed by some Democrats moved forward, including universal background checks, an “assault weapons” ban, and a red flag law.

Legal firearm owners in the state, however, joined with their sheriffs to form Second Amendment sanctuary counties, which declare the authorities in these municipalities uphold the Second Amendment in the face of any gun control measure passed by Richmond.

Bite me.

We’re using their own defiance of the law against them.

Let’s get this boogaloo tee’d up! There’s lampposts begging for hemp. From what I read this morning we have a Senator named Warner who is begging to get his neck stretched.

This is what the true Left does when it gains power. The first step is to disarm the populace.

After that, all bets are off.

And don't think it can't happen here.

This is gonna turn out to involve a hell of a lot more than just AR-15s before she’s all done.

History repeats. Virginia may be the epicenter of CWII, just as it was 150 years ago.

lets see how fast and big a militia became if they try that. I guess they are trying to pour gasoline on the fire.

How about prosecuting the ones who refuse to enforce immigration laws?

Democrats in 2016: No one is going to take your guns away. That just scare mongering by the NRA.

Democrats in 2019: We’re going to take your guns away!

The law is the law except when illegals barge into our country and vote. Then the law doesn’t matter. These rats can now get a taste of their own sanctuary medicine. Spit.

What about police that fail to enforce immigration laws and cooperate with ICE? Hmmm?

Time to ask the DC democrats if sanctuary is proper.

To say sanctuary counties are wrong they must sdmit that sanctuary cites are also wrong.

If sanctuary cities are ok than sanctuary counties are also ok.

mmmm..isn’t this the whole point about the Second Amendment?

If Richmond isn’t careful there’s gonna be a whole lot of Virginia seceding into SouthWest Virgina-leaving NOVA to stew in its own diversity and PC-the conseqiences of which they’re presently attempting to dilute throughout the whole state

You see, that is justifiable defiance.

Here in Pennsylvania, we have pre-emption, which does not allow cities to enact their own gun control laws. The Democrats in our shithole cities constantly pass gun control laws, hoping to get a court to rule against the state....that way, they can create overlapping and conflicting gun laws statewide.

This is a never-ending battle with these fascist Democrats.

The time for the sanctuary counties to create militias is now. Resolutions are paper and mean nothing to a determined enemy. Official county militia, led by an executive and the sheriff with parade, drills, range practice. Put all those privately owned ARs to good use.

If the sanctuary counties don’t do this now they will lose. Perfect, undeniable use of the 2nd.
