    This is a test. This is only a test. If this were a real emergency you will be instructed to dig up your guns from the back yard and lock n load then wait for further instructions.
    But....
    But I....
    Oh dang.

    And we have a Democrat in the governor’s office. Conservative Edwards or not, still Democrat.
    Just sayin’

    It was and I agree. NOVA / Fairfax counties maybe; the rest not happening.


    Assuming that was directed at me. I don't think they will be able to force the police to start enforcing laws that they deem unconstitutional. Sure, some counties might, but I imagine that by and large, most will not use the new laws unless someone is doing something stupid already and needs an additional charge added.

    At this point no one can say it WON'T happen in Virginia. They have all the ingredients for something very bad to happen. A lot of chest beating and threats are being thrown out. I do not believe it would take much to light the fuse.

    I do not believe all out civil war is about to happen, but you have 2 armed opponents staring at each other waiting to see who will flinch or cross that line.

    Virginia will show the rest of the country how this CAN happen in your back yard if you do not show up at the ballot box.

    Not certain about exactly what I believe will transpire but I really don’t see any good coming from this.
    There are a lot of folks just waiting to start something and this looks like as good an excuse as any.
    Whatever pans out I hope that people on both sides will play it safe.
    Last thing we need is more shootings to shape our current political landscape regarding guns.
    And if law enforcement officers are engaged by civilians the ramifications are quite dire for both sides.

    If the shooting does start can u imagine what it will do the the price and the availability of .22 again? Everyone who pre ordered the new Glock .22 will be pissed! I think just for this reason it will never happen.

    Fixing to get real!! Gov. Threatens to shut off electricity, cell phones and internet to raid houses to confiscate guns. If he does this it will be a blood bath, who does he think he is? Hitler??
    What I’m thinking is, a tyrannical governor who attempts to tear the ass out of the bill of rights needs to be removed from office. If these are indeed his plans, they might as well call in whomever will remove him from office and get it done.
    I just hope they don’t catch too many people standing there in disbelief. Anyone who can watch a situation unfold in front of their eyes and continue to deny it is not any good to themselves or their family, except that they make good shields if the shooting starts. Just standing there saying, not gonna happen, not gonna happen, not gonna...

    So this is just a proposal to be voted on? It’s not actually law yet or am I reading it wrong?

    Does anyone have this from a source that isn’t a crazy dude with a long criminal record and a history of conspiracy theories, holocaust denial, and threats of violence?

    I think it's just another example of power-drunk "Dims" believing their hatred of private gun ownership is a majority opinion- and they outkicked the coverage.

    Even democrats have a problem with door to door search and seizure.

    They will have to back down and they know it.

    I Googled it and it's out there. Just no main stream media coverage? I know this is big on Sniper's Hide, been reading up on it as much as I can?

    https://forum.snipershide.com/threads/va-gun-confiscation-looming.6969376/

    Maybe I stopped reading too soon in recent and not so recent past I’ve found Snipershide to have plenty of good reading concerning precision marksmanship, but now I’m not sure I’m interested in their political opinions. It seemed to me they were all but waiting with bated breath for the second revolution.

    Now I would love nothing more than to see freedom restored and as I’m sure many realize I’m an ‘originalist’ when it comes to the constitution and freedom, but it churns my stomach at the thought of a violent overthrow of any domestic government, and I pray we find a way back to our founding principles without widespread violence.

    I think there have been talks, due to the backlash, that the bill will be changed to grandfather the affected firearms and ban the sale of new ones. Of course, grandfathering would require registration. From what I remember, it was originally an outright ban.
