[Old Yeller]

Recall Governor Jolson.

[Bommer]

He can thank the calendar thst it falls on Easter. Just wondering how much longer hundreds of thousand with weapons start a march on Richmond and demand either immediate resignations or body bags. Sic Sempter Tyrannis! Either live up to the motto, or change it to “Sic Dominus Meus!”

[MSF BU]

Well, perhaps this will turn the tide in November and the GOP can find the 6% necessary to carry the state. They either have to flip or find some.

[DownInFlames]

Shall not be infringed

[ronnie raygun]

Time to throw this fn bum out, what say you virginia

[Regulator]

I vote door #2

We let in millions of people who have nothing in common with us

They now put in power the kind of people who hate us, but never could get elected before

[DarthVader]

Elections are not going to fix what we have too.

[GreyHoundSailor]

Our RINO Governor passed a lot of the same garbage - very few care about breaking the new laws. Live long enough and the government will eventually find a way to declare you a criminal.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

“Did you really think we want those laws observed?" said Dr. Ferris. "We want them to be broken. You'd better get it straight that it's not a bunch of boy scouts you're up against... We're after power and we mean it... There's no way to rule innocent men. The only power any government has is the power to crack down on criminals. Well, when there aren't enough criminals one makes them. One declares so many things to be a crime that it becomes impossible for men to live without breaking laws. Who wants a nation of law-abiding citizens? What's there in that for anyone? But just pass the kind of laws that can neither be observed nor enforced or objectively interpreted – and you create a nation of law-breakers – and then you cash in on guilt. Now that's the system, Mr. Reardon, that's the game, and once you understand it, you'll be much easier to deal with.” ― Ayn Rand, Atlas Shrugged

I just hate those “one-handgun-a-month rules”. I don’t need any more but them requiring me to buy one a month is putting a strain on my budget.

[Sgt_Schultze]

Governor Ralph Northam (D) signed legislation Saturday creating universal background checks (for reporters) in Virginia and limiting law-abiding Virginian (columnists) to one handgun purchase opinion article per month.

[CJ Wolf]

amen to that. the scales of justice will be weighed. #VAmotto

[shanover]

All I can say FU I will NEVER comply and keep the powder dry. It is high time to fertilize that liberty tree. Anything more I say will get me in trouble.

[pierrem15]

If you go to two different gun dealers, how does the state of VA know you are buying a second pistol within a month?

The transfers all go through the Virginia State Police who do the NICS check and also keep a database.

[pierrem15]

OK— it’s like Illinois then. At least you don’t need a FOID (yet).

We can hope, because what ails Virginia will not be fixed at the ballot box. The Left have imported many thousands of illegals and new immigrants and the government employees are a solid voting block for the Rats. The demographics are strongly against taking back the state through the ballot box so other means will be needed.

[MSF BU]

The new changes might be a simple reflection of demography which is destiny. We’ve replaced parts of the population with enough people from cultures hostile to American values that the impact is now being felt in safe GOP areas. Oh well, enough of the immigration fantasy.

[MSF BU]

Bingo regarding the immigration gambit. It’s probably lost unless the rural areas really turn out...or somehow the GOP in liberal areas manages to bump up their turnout.
