Virginia Gov. Terry McAuliffe (D.) announced on Monday that he will seek to reinstate a restriction on gun sales that limits individuals in the state to one handgun purchase a month.
The law was repealed during the previous administration of Gov. Bob McDonnell (R.).
McAuliffe’s request for the Republican-dominated legislature to reinstate the law is likely to fall on deaf ears, according to a report by Reuters.

Geez! One handgun purchase a month would really cut in to my boating activities.
Notice how these politicians never run on a campaign to ban guns and magazines. It’s only after they get elected that these subjects come up...
If McAuliffe had his way, gun ownership in VA would be restricted to his security detail.
Well, THAT didn’t take long for him to show his true colors, did it?
Because Northern Virginia, NoVa to locals, has become a part of the Northeast Corridor. The area is now Yankee Country, this coming from a native NYer now living in Central VA. They brought with them their crazy Liberal politics.
this guy is a Democrat; did anyone really expect him to pro-2nd amendment?
And, of course, VA is so damn close to DC, no doubt a lot of taxpayer leeches, oops, I mean public servants (ahem) live there.
Once again, NOTHING surprises me.
Let me see, starting in January 2015, buying one hand gun a month would only leave me with 12 by December. Better get started early so I can make my “quota”. (sarc)
What a bunch of BULL CRAP!
You should pay a visit to NoVa. In that area it is “Recession what recession”. Since Sept 11 nothing but good times courtesy of the rest of US.
WE DIDN’T ELECT HIM! All his Marxist buddies nursing the federal teat in the D.C. subburbs elected him.
We desperately need to cut off North Virginia and let it be it’s own state and it can elect all the Marxists it wants......
Northern Virginia and Easter VA (Richmond, Hampton, etc.)
His "base."

LIBs are termites undermining sanity and civilization wherever they infest.
Will the gov. simply write an executive order?
Too far. If I want to experience a reasonable facsimile, I'll drive down to Sacramento or San Francisco.
Arlington and Alexandria were originally part of the District of Columbia. Perhaps those areas should be given back to DC. It would be a start.
You had to expect is sooner or later. He’s a Dem.
Clinton’s boy wants to be able to wave the bloody shirt if anything happens.
“You should pay a visit to NoVa. In that area it is “Recession what recession”.”
There is only one corridor, I-95 and two cities, Manhattan NY and Washington DC.
Those I know in DC think everything is wonderfully prosperous and peaceful under the Flying Fop.
Hey, Virginia, it’s what you get for putting this Clymer in office. He belongs in prison after that Global Crossing insider trading crap!
