...suing to get the unconstitutional law over turned...
_______________________________________________

AFAIK, there is, as yet, no actual, enacted law. The clowns have drafted the bills and they are waiting until the new legislature is in office in January 2020. However, they are crowing publicly about the entire operation prior to the fact, so the citizens are petitioning and positioning themselves legally to respond if/once the laws are actually voted into existence.

I understand that recall petitions are also being circulated.

This sanctuary movement has also spread to other states threatening/promising gun grabs.

There have been no successful violations/pre-emptions of 2A that I’m aware of. Municipal ordinances have been ignored and resulted in non-compliance.

They haven’t passed anything yet, these are shots across the bow as a warning not to do it.

“Moreover, neither Attorney General Herring nor Governor Northam can credibly demand
that local governments must implement every Act of the General Assembly, because that view
directly contradicts the positions they have taken in the past. Indeed, on three recent occasions,
AG Herring and Governor Northam have taken exactly the opposite legal position, with respect
to: (i) the defense of the Virginia Marriage Amendment to the Virginia Constitution; (ii) the
General Assembly’s refusal to assist the federal government with the arrest and detention of

2

civilians as authorized by the National Defense Appropriations Act of 2012; and (iii) the right of
localities in Virginia to become sanctuary cities with respect to the enforcement of federal
immigration laws.”

Love it that they show them what hypocrites they are with this excerpt...

Hard to sue against a law that is merely proposed, not yet enacted.
