Virginia Governor Sets a Trap for Lobby Day, 20 January, 2020

Second Amendment supporters face a daunting challenge in Virginia for Lobby day, at the Virginia Capitol in Richmond, on 20 January 2020.  Those who wish to disarm Virginians have created a trap to frame Second Amendment Supporters as violent white supremacists, going to Richmond to destroy duly elected government.

Do not take the bait.

Armed Virginians have been going to the State Capitol in Richmond to lobby to restore Second Amendment rights since 2002. The Virginia Citizens Defense League (VCDL) has been very successful in these efforts. VCDL was instrumental in moving Virginia from a may issue to a shall-issue state in 1995. It has made the shall-issue law better and better by such things as eliminating many gun-free zones and eliminating the requirement for fingerprints to obtain a permit to carry. It has kept improving the state preemption law, to prevent local governments from chipping away at Second Amendment rights.  It has been one of the most effective of the state organizations working to restore Second Amendment rights.

In 2019, a combination of a lawsuit used to gerrymander Virginia voting districts in favor of Democrats, millions of dollars of money spent by billionaires aimed at destroying Second Amendment rights, the influx of immigrants to areas next to the District of Columbia, the successful get out to vote campaign by supporters of Communist China for new immigrants, and the restoration of voting rights, but not the right to arms, to convicted felons, has resulted in the Democrat takeover of the Virginia General Assembly and the Senate, by Democrats who have vowed to impose severe restrictions on the exercise of Second Amendment

A very large crowd with lots of coverage is a win for us, regardless of it being boring, or not. The deep state need to know we will stand up for our rights, and They must back down or suffer consequences on Their part too, not just on us.

VCU’s campus is several miles west.
MCV is north of the Capitol and not many students live in the vicinity.

Our election was run on maps drawn by a UC Irvine professor at the direction of a federal judge, AFTER Chief Justice Roberts said in another case that courts have no role in redistricting.

I also hope and pray you are correct.
But from a few articles I’ve read, Antifa, KKK, Nazis, BLM & co have chartered buses to come and disrupt the event with violence.
I hope I’m wrong.

Agreed.

If (or when) Northams “soros/bloomberg/DNC” paid thug trap is executed, it will involve organized and violent “ANTIFA”, or other left-wing groups, dressed as fake 2-A “Trump” supporters, fighting with left-wing groups, so the media can lay the entire thing at 2-A “Trump” supporters feet, and on President Trump himself.

Guaranteed, the anti-American anti-God left really wants this additional footage (framing) of “Trump” supporters and President Trump, going into their highly orchestrated unlawful “impeachment” Senate show trial COUP effort, of an innocent President Trump.

It is also very possible Northams paid left-wing thugs go after real and innocent 2-A supporters.

At this point however, the anti-American left is so immoral and bad, and unaccountably violent, even if not one single true 2-A supporter shows up at Richmond, the busloads of paid/organized FAKE “2-A” dressed thugs would still provide the footage the mass left-wing globalist socialist media wants against 2-A and President Trump.

The mass media likely already have elements and crews in known locations of “conflict”, or staged conflict. Or the “protesters” know locations where the media will be heavy.

Of course, this would not happen if the anti-American global socialists thugs knew they would get shot by authorities, or legally shot, out of self defense all across the country. But apparently, dealing with the unaccountable paid violence, from anti-American leftist thugs is not in the calculus yet.

The left will make it happen at some point. Historically, they always have.

It is so obvious, the global socialist badly want American society disarmed. And no one pushed this hard, and this long, to make a society defenseless, unless they intend to bring a real bloodbath and slavery.

Question.
Are there going to be any sheriffs of 2A sanctuary counties attending tomorrow?
If yes, one might think that they’d be able to watch and document any antifa shenanigans, while having the backs of the good guys attending.

well well Debbie Downer, You certainly seem paranoid. I do not believe that the State is going to “open fire” on their citizens (I truly hope I’m right), but, I think that the State has planted rabble rousers to try to stir up Charlottesville type trouble. Numbers count here. If our side has 10,000 and theirs has 100 I don’t see any real trouble happening. If on the other hand the State decides to mow down law abiding lobbyists then truly CWWII has started. I just don’t see that happening. I see this as the first step in the nationwide gun confiscation plan. They want this to go easily and the rest will fall like dominoes.

And their media in ABCNNBCBS don’t care: “If the democrat media doesn’t say it, it doesn’t matter, it didn’t happen.”

Stay home. Fight it in the courts.

Like Roe v Wade. Eventually, after 50 million dead so far, 50,000-100,00000 wounded, we’ll hopefully finally start honoring God and standing up in time.

That’s what Jesus did....stayed home and suited.

Because of a couple hurtful wackos, you don’t protest a greater wrong? That’s why you don’t offer help to a woman outside an abortion clinic? Because someone else there is a jerk? She needs YOUR presence. God does.

But you assume that they want a boring, peaceful protest. It is their intentions to seed the crowd with bad actors who will try to start a riot so that the anti-gun crowd can portray them as insurgents.

I didn’t say don’t protest, but safeguards must be taken not to let the leftist filth pervert the demonstration.

Guy that went to Richmond to check out the location, got a visit from the authorities.

Gut lives 100 miles from Richmond.

” It is a fun idea to contemplate.

It would only take a Constitutional Amendment or two, or maybe an Article V convention...”


The Constitution only prohibits the formation of new states from the territory of another state without the assent of the state legislature, it is silent regarding the transfer of territory between already existing states.

I’m sure the attempt would end up before SCOTUS but it is worth trying it.

The Virginia attack on the Second Amendment is showing the nation exactly what Democrats are all about. They want to scrap the Constitution, take away our rights (guns, free speech, and more) for their Socialist agenda. This is what the United States will get if the vote for any Democrat.
