The day after a massive gathering of gun-rights activists at the Virginia Capitol, the state Senate on Tuesday advanced legislation that would allow authorities to take guns away from people deemed dangerous to themselves or others.The Democratic-led Senate gave preliminary approval to approved the so-called “red flag” law. The measure is set for a final vote in the Senate, likely Wednesday, before going to the House. Republicans blasted the bill as an assault on gun rights and civil liberties. Democrats said the bill was a thoughtful measure that would preserve due process while also protecting people against potential gun violence.

Just as I thought the Democrats learned nothing from the Rally and will continue to ignore the voters. The next rally will double in size.

Of course they will keep moving forward. Why wouldn’t they? They have no fear of gun owners.

The next rally should be in November 2021 and all of these leftists turned out of office.
If we could get the 60% that did not bother to vote in the last election to wake up, we could save our state.
The Democrats may be doing that for us.

The Socialist/Democrat party has an agenda, and there is nothing you, or I can say that will cause them to alter their course. They want our guns, they want our obedience, they want to destroy our nation, and break us to their bidding all for their perceived new World order.

That stubborn little eunuch Blackface Northam has an agenda as big as all outdoors.

Virtue signaling to cover his white racism to the Dem crowd.

Stupid people in US (”what can it hurt to vote in the Dems in the House to balance stuff out?” and Virginia “We have to do something or other somehow to protect children from school shooters-—let’s vote Dem and grab guns. Rosie and Alyssa Milano said it’s smart to do.” )

Now we have to fight our way back from those elections.

We had a 40% turnout of eligible voters.
We ran the election on maps drawn by a UC Irvine professor at the direction of a federal judge, despite Chief Justice Roberts saying in another case that courts have no role in redistricting.
Some seats were uncontested by the GOP.
That’s why we lost.

‘ Where are the lawsuits and Trump judges?’

For what? Why? Nothing has been passed YET. Not until the Gov signs it.
A lot can happen between now and when anything that’s passed becomes a consequence, like an election.

It does not matter how they got voted in. Totalitarians can be voted in but they can’t be voted out.
