Those of us who value the United States Constitution and its Second Amendment, which guarantees the right to keep and bear arms, were profoundly depressed, earlier this year, to see the speed and efficiency with which left-wing and progressive forces in Virginia rammed through a swath of anti-gun legislation within weeks of taking office there. They ignored the wishes of almost half the electorate, dismissed out of hand protests, declarations of "Second Amendment sanctuaries" and other objections, and shoved through a series of laws that emasculated important parts of the right to keep and bear arms. They haven't finished yet, either - expect more such laws to come down the pike within the next year or two.
I have friends who are in a position to follow developments there "behind the scenes". They informed me this week that Michael Bloomberg (who bankrolled the Democrat electoral victory in Virginia) and his anti-gun organizations have taken their victory in that state to heart. They told me that, according to their sources, anti-gun lawyers are drafting national legislation that's intended to be rushed through Congress and the Senate as soon as Democrats have (they hope) taken control of both houses early next year. Basically, they'll reshape US federal law concerning firearms in the image and likeness of what's already been done in Virginia - and just as quickly, if not faster.

Good luck with that! LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL!
ReplyDeleteI live in Virginia. Virginia has no one to blame but themselves. There were over 12 seats that ran UNOPPOSED in the last election. The Liberals do not hold that big of an edge in the legislature. Dems hold 55 seats and Rep hold 45 in the House of Delegates. In the senate is 21 and 19 respectively. The last election was a wake up call to many in this state about the fact that elections have consequences.
ReplyDeleteBloomberg money talks loudly in a precuneus society. Once under Socialist control you'll never vote your way out despite your illusions to the contrary.
DeleteLeft-leaning big businesses with government contracts in NoVa have also spent the past thirty years importing millions of "diverse" minimum-wage Indian IT scabs under the H1B visa program, many of whom have gotten citizenship and moved their entire extended families in via "chain migration."
DeleteIndians hate, Hate, HATE guns and the Second Amendment, and they couldn't give less of a damn about the law or the Constitution. They openly despise the culture and the people of the region they're illegally colonizing. The Chinese are worse on all counts.
Canada is also pushing through a bill to ban AR-15's in th wake of the mass shooting in Nova Scotia a couple weeks ago. "Never let a crisis go to waste."

Of course the shooter in NS was banned from owning guns anyways, so its not like he followed gun laws anyways.

I can see a lot of decorated lamp posts if enforcement even thinks about starting.
ReplyDelete"If"? Aside from an obstacle or two, it's well underway. Decorating lamp posts would be scenic but some unfortunate will have to do cleanup. Regressives are in need of an object lesson...may not buck city hall but their collective doorstep can be crapped on.
