Cheers and applause break out in the Virginia Senate Judiciary Committee as they vote to not move forward with HB961, otherwise known as @GovernorVA's "assault firearms" ban.

The Progressive Democrats and their socialist friends won’t give up. It’s just a minor setback for them and soon they’ll be scheming a midnight vote on another bill sneaked in when no one is looking.
The conniving b*st*rds could care less about the constitutionality of their retroactive laws or denial of due process to the law abiding public because it’s YOUR money and YOUR property they’re after.
Unfortunately, they’re asking to have their asses kicked and in time, it’s coming.
Absolutely correct, the Left/Deep State (VA gun control heavily funded by Bloomberg) will not ever stop. But let the record show that getting out in the streets, turning 92% of the counties into 2A sanctuaries, discussing leaving VA and joining WVA…….well it had a big impact. Matt Bracken was not correct on this though he has been correct on many things.
So when I see folks saying we can’t do a damn thing…..remember VA.
We own our lives and we have the inherent rights of free people but those rights must be vigorously defended, peacefully if possible but defended nonetheless.
Don’t worry the Left Fucksticks will be back.
Yep…I upvoted you Hammertime…they will be back and so will we!
Progressives use the “silent artillery of time” to get their agenda through. It will come up again and again until they get it passed, just like everything else they go after.
TN,
I can’t disagree…having fought tooth and nail and still seen the ‘Long March’ move ‘Forward’.
I’m just one man, but by the Triune God I will bite their knee caps off if I have to.
Mark – It’s good to know there are a lot of people like you out there, still standing on the wall. I have thought for quite some time that we had until ’24 before SHTF time, but this beer flu may move the start date up.
Keep you larder full, powder dry and Bible well read.
TN,
I have many neighbors and people in my church with the same attitude. I have probably been more outspoken and active than most, both about God and the lost Republic, but you can tell by the increased traffic in my small town gun store, and the increasing sounds of gunfire on weekends (everyone around me has land and their own gun ranges) people are arming up, and seriously practicing.
There is one Mexican restaurant in town and I have gotten to know the owner, he has 4 kids, works about 80 hours a week…anyway we have been talking over the years, and I’m going to teach him how to shoot soon…he wants to be able to defend his family, and has never been around guns.
Sure, does look like the long drum roll is turning into Wipe Out…stay frosty TN.
Unfortunately? Can you imagine an America without government debt, without a gravy train? I–ca-aa-a–a-a-an. Not necessarily stoned to death, but beautifully gone.
Guess I’m not a felon on July 1 after all…let’s see about next year.
Yup, you have been given a reprieve. I am not a resident of VA but, I have some close ties there. They just postponed the passing of the bill. Now lets all hope that the good citizens of VA don’t forget or think things are fixed. Now is the time for citizens of VA to push back. Go on the offensive rather than fight a defense. It would not hurt to recall all those ass-hats in your state government at this time. One thing for sure, don’t underestimate them or forgive them. As I see it they are all cowards looking for ways to knife you in the back.
many of them were elected w/help/$ from bloomberg,soros,and affiliated groups–
Laura Ingraham had the former Loudon Co., VA district Attorney on as a guest last night and she said her opponent spent over $1 MILLION on the race that normally sees $25 – 50,000 per candidate. They are trying to buy our government and place their minions into power at the local level.
Some on these threads do not believe in voting, but when you stay at home, it gives the other side an advantage.
Don’t turn your backs on these bastards, or any of the freedom-hating parasites that infect EVERY state house in America.
Hurray for a several tens of thousands of well armed peaceful protesters! The politicians must have imagined what might happen if they were not so peaceful.
llpoh,
Being there was exhilarating! (It was also freezing).
The defiant determination was palpable, contagious, and infectious!
The type of communicable in your face LIBERTY virus we all need to catch and spread.
Piss and shit on the governemnt.
You’re the man, Mark.
guys,
this link from goa is about the atf,not virginia,but i hope you’ll all read this,fire off a message,and then post it to your personal email lists–
the atf is trying to build a gunowners database by copying the records of gun dealers,which they are not supposed to do–
https://gunowners.org/na02152020/
What they are doing we can’t imagine. There is no peaceful way your life has value. Enough Exhibits of Corruption. We know. Circle jerk same time tomorrow then?
Tampa,
I like Rex…

Many patriot gun store owners should decide to make lunch with one of those counter top burners and oops the damn file of all purchases went up in flames, bitches. Oops
I used the Hunger games TV marathon to show my kids the unarmed citizens being told how to live by the armed gov. I also talked of Their grampa watching the armed German soldiers walking unarmed Jews to the death train in holland. Tyrants love an unarmed populace.
Congrats to the citizens of Virginia and those outside the state who helped financially/logistically ect.,that said,while a win tis just one of many battles moving forward.Keep after pols who want to disarm you/perhaps while you still can get a tool of freedom if you have not already/as mentioned here teach new folks how to shoot/push for recall elections/sanctuaries ect.
This is good news but to quote the Alice Cooper song”We still have a long way to go!”
I think the subtlety of 100,000 armed citizens showing up from all over the country, peacefully showing off their willingness to bring arms and march in solidarity, and afterward cleaning up the streets was missed by these immature treasonous politicians.
They continue to move in the wrong and deadly direction of banning guns. They are trying to goad them iNto making a martyr of their cause and no bait will be tasted. For there seems only one time they shall react and that is when, the red line has been crossed. The shoving match and word play is all narrative building within their constituency to rally donations. The left think this is a political game and donation opportunity. They are dead wrong.
They are playing stick your head in the gator and there is no coming back from that…..they did not learn in Vietnam or Afghanistan that small arms in the hands of a justified, pissed off, capable, and nothing to lose, people are truly unbeatable. Like a bully getting up bloodied and walking away saying he won the fight and did not want to really get mad and harm the kid was the same as the usa declaring victory by walking away in those and many other wars.
The only wars that are winnable is when a dictator is paying or forcing his military to fight. When people are fighting for their very existence or a free existence, they have rarely lost. History shows that has not happened in modern warfare because those are exceptionally bloody on both sides and things are done that are truly atrocious. (Native American was the last I recall). Rhodesia was dictatorial/opportunistic. When this one u leashes there will be a tall order to make sure a lesson is learned for the next millennium to make sure it does not happen again. When future generations and all their new laser weapons hundreds of years from now realize a few small arms beat (Bidens) f18 jets, drones, (Swallows well) nuclear weapons they too will think twice before getting all stupid.
We are the only nation on earth, that has allowed it’s citizens to remain armed, after the revolution that created it. Sure, some countries allow firearms, but not like the US.
Think about that, and compare your life to other citizens of the world, and then ask your self, why do they all want to immigrate to this country? why do they emulate our culture?
It is certainly not our govt. that people around the world love. It is the citizens that continue to fight against the evil nature of power. And the 2nd Amendment gives us the right to fight against that evil nature.
The 2nd,a reaffirmation of a birth right.
merely postponed on account of rain. whether in 5 years or 10 or whenever there will be too many blacks and beaners to stop it. unless
