Several thousand gun owners turned out at the temporary General Assembly Building on Monday, January 13! The hearing room was divided into two areas - the larger area for gun-rights supporters and the other was a smaller area for gun-control supporters.

Gun owners filled up their side of the room quickly, while the gun controllers side was still pretty empty. To make it looked like they had more people and not look so pitiful, a search for gun-controllers in the waiting line outside the meeting room doors was conducted.

Countless gun owners in the line were skipped over in the search for more gun-controllers. Whenever a gun controller was found, they were allowed to go into the meeting room, but no more gun owners were allowed in.

Just remember, the reason we have gun crime is politicans failing to protect law abiding people that obey gun laws. Not the fact free people have a right to use deadly force to defend themselves from criminals.

Push it back on every gun grabbing apologist tyrant, whetehr they are in office or just a common lackey. Its libtard soft on crime governments failure, not law abiding gun owners.

Deja Vu, just like it was here in Nevada.

Every pro-RKBA person needs to be active in the next election to make sure the seditionist lose their majority.
Then repeal this feculence.

Anyone interested in attending the VCDL rally on the 20th should read the thread by Matt Bracken (Freeper Travis McGee):

https://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3806318/posts

The script for that rally has already been written by the MSM.

The MSM is guaranteed to exploit that rally for anti-Second Amendment propaganda. They are salivating at the prospect.

People who attend that rally should behave accordingly.

Just long enough to pass laws infringing gun rights that will be very hard to undo.

When will stupid Americans realize that at some point it's too late to voice concern about state politics? Virginians allowed a communist supermajority to wrest control, just like that dump kalifornia.

It's a roller coaster ride straight into the abyss from here on out.

Sounds like what happened in Colorado in 2013.
We outnumbered the pro gun control crowd by about 200 to one.
Legislators ignored it. Passed it anyway.

The Times Dispatch reported the long lines were caused by having to scan for weapons under the new rule. But the capitol police have had metal detectors and X-ray machines at the legislative office building since before 1989 when I started going over there.

No, it was the size of the crowd.

Same in Maryland. Over 1200 people testified against the gun grab. Less than ten were in favor. My delegate told me he’d never seen such a turnout. Of course, the rats passed it overwhelmingly. Politicians and especially democrats could care less about the people they supposedly represent.

There should be repercussions.
Lawful, of course.

Agreed. Running and hiding is the old way of being “conservative”.
