And we saw what happens when rights become regional. Like, 157 years ago.
NJ and VA residents who value freedom should buy guns and ammo now. Be prepared, whether destructive laws are passed to restrict their freedom on future purchases, or . . .
“Northam, a Dem who has been the Commonwealths lieutenant governor since 2014, has said he would move to reinstate Virginias past one-handgun-a-month policy and is in favor of more regulation on semi-auto firearms.”
Don’t worry, the people that stayed home have a legal protection that will keep these laws from applying to them because the other guy was too wishy-washy, and so it won’t be fair.....right?
This Ping List is for all things pertaining to the 2nd Amendment.

What a dramatic change in New Jersey. Christie was never a passionate supporter of the 2nd Amendment.
I saw this trend beginning a long time ago—I moved from NJ in 2006.
The shame of it is, that NJ is one of the most beautiful states in the country.
The libs and the gibs-me-dat now outnumber the normal folks and it is not a fixable situation.
I have two sons there. One needs 8 more years to retirement from his town job; the other is more flexible.
I live in southern DE, which is still sane and mostly GOP, although the northern DE folks are real libs.
The low property and no sales tax is bringing thousands to our corner of the world every year now.
Northam, a Dem who has been the Commonwealths lieutenant governor since 2014, has said he would move to reinstate Virginias past one-handgun-a-month policy and is in favor of more regulation on semi-auto firearms.
I was once going to shoot up a restaurant but only had one handgun. However, I lived in a state that had a one handgun per month law, so in the 30 days I waited, I reconsidered my plan and now live as a peaceful, upstanding citizen.
LOLOL!!!!
I’ve heard about DE being favorable for taxes, but I could never move to any Democrat-run state for such an incentive as I know it’ll last only as long as necessary to get people in the door and not a more permanent matter of governing philosophy.
One good thing about DE is that the lawmakers are only in session six months out of the year.
Another is that one third of our revenues comes from corporations paying a franchise tax to be domiciled here.
Both have helped to modulate the normal Dem insanity.
Been a Police Officer and Corrections Officer and worked various Security positions for decades. I have never witnessed “gun violence”. I have witnessed tons of human violence with and with out the use of a firearm as a tool in that violence!
One night I opened my gun safe and two of my handguns were trying to pistol whip each other. That’s the last time I buy separate brands and lock the up together.
Two Dim antigun govs do not a national trend make.
If Constitution-hating Obama couldn’t send the flying monkeys of BATFE to beat down peoples’ doors in eight years, it’s not going to be `Mr & Mrs America turn ‘em all in’ anytime soon.
This election may however accelerate the ongoing process of states becoming much bluer or much redder.
"...Two Dim antigun govs do not a national trend make..."
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh No.
Guadagno lost in Jersey because the public was angered over the arrogance of Prince Christy and since she was his lieutenant, she was incorrectly perceived as the reason for his despicable behavior. Christy had a golden opportunity to resurrect New Jersey’s economy but he viewed it merely as a milch cow for a Presidential run. Besides, New Jersey is as red as any state could possibly be. Internal dissention in the Democrat pack allowed to Christy to win his first time around.
Virginia has been trending Democrat for a long time - mainly due to the slew of northern invaders in the north of the state and the sprawling gigantic Federal Government workforce which lives there. Also, Gillespie ran before, lost before and was part of the GOP establishment anyway.
Those are the REAL reasons the two lost.
Too late for NJ, even their Republicans back gun control.
Virginians are already well armed.
Americans need to stand up for the Bill of Rights. “States rights” do not trump the Second Amendment of the Bill of Rights.
