Is he purposely trying to get those 18 people killed?? Gun owners do not take kindly to *ANY* property being forcibly taken by anyone.

Yeah, He's asking for 250k for prison housing. I guess he wants to put people in prison for not following his unconstitutional law. Fuck this Governor.

Really?? Just 250k?? Spread that among the millions about to be suddenly incarcerated......................

Yeah, that's going to go far.
Clearly they did not think this all the way through.
I can just see it now..............
Millions suddenly committing a serious felony with jail time all before they even get out of bed!! Can't jail them all because there's not enough room to begin with. If I was one of the ones being jailed simply for owning property, then they wanted to release me because "there's not enough room" would immediately be told tough toe nails! I'm staying and you're going to take care of me like you're supposed to. If everyone did that, the Virginia penal system would be immediately screwed!!

Also, being jailed, too many would lose their jobs. In jail or suddenly out of a job means NO commerce conducted or taxes being paid. Let alone penalties, fines and court costs. (yeah, good luck with that) CPS would suddenly be overloaded with kids and most would be trafficked. Police forces completely eliminated, those in the military, EMS services, (because 99% of those people all have guns) power plants not having enough people to run...................

I could see Virginia coming to a screeching halt unbelievably fast. (think 5th world country)

There's going to be a big rally held on the 20th in Richmond at the Capitol building. I have seen reports that many are coming with ARs and AKs and all the "scary guns to Send a message. Might be interesting to see how this plays out. I don't think either side is just playing.

I know! Right?
I'm thinking too many just aren't comprehending this little fact.
On side 1 of the Virginia arena, you have the gun grabbers making the claim that they're totally serious about their position.
On side 2 of the Virginia arena, you have the freedom loving gun owners also making the claim that they are also totally serious about their position. Both sides are spewing extreme warnings at each other with the gun owners adding that they're really not kidding.

*IF* side 1 makes good on their threats, NOBODY (including the national guard) is coming to back them up.
*IF* side 2 sees that side 1 makes the wrong move, they have all kinds of backup just by picking up the phone.

We over here in Texas are watching all this play out while parked in our lounge chairs on the patio sipping on our home made lemonade with a Texas-sized bucket of hot overly buttered popcorn.
(we're betting on the fine people of Virginia.)

Death by doctors is *FAR* worse than gun violence. Don't see any of you doing anything about that. But I digress.

If the governor wants to do something productive, pass a law requiring everyone to have one OR a weapon of their choice and require everyone to be very proficient at it.

You know. Something like the swiss do?

Pretty sure your tune on that would change in a heartbeat if sniper rifles were not only legalized but handed out. Not just run of the mill ones either. We're talking sniper rifles designed to take out targets from further distances away than what you might normally consider. And then the governor started bringing in sniper training in that and your area specifically.

See my guess is this. Gun owners don't actually put all that much thought into the logical conclusion of their actions in general. Pretty sure most gun owners would start to pet the bed the second cops and in general the government started treating certain groups the same way they treat gun owners who protest.

Can you imagine antifacists being able to protest with guns without the fear of cops shooting them on sight? Black panthers being able to protest with guns? Blacklivesmatter being able to protest with guns? Never trumpers?

Pretty sure it won't happen but imagine feminists protesting with guns. People trying to protect planned parenthood protesting with guns. Anyone protesting for the rights of people of color in general, women, the lgbtq community, americans who aren't traditionally protected, muslims, immigrants an so on did in fact protest with guns.

And not just guns. Sniper rifles. Where there's a very good chance that if they did take out a few people they wouldn't get caught.

I'm very very sure that would very very quickly change your opinions on the subject.

And then the governor started bringing in sniper training in that and your area specifically. Sniper rifles are legal, not hard to make but they're hugely expensive. So no, my tune hasn't changed. If you'll recall that fiasco out in Arizona on that ranch (can't remember the name) the military had snipers pointed at those farmers. But what the military DIDN'T know is that regular people had snipers pointed AT the snipers.

See my guess is this. Gun owners don't actually put all that much thought into the logical conclusion of their actions in general. Oh yes they do. Pretty sure most gun owners would start to pet the bed the second cops and in general the government started treating certain groups the same way they treat gun owners who protest. You watch too much tv.

Can you imagine antifacists being able to protest with guns without the fear of cops shooting them on sight? Black panthers being able to protest with guns? Blacklivesmatter being able to protest with guns? Never trumpers? Oh please! Those people don't even know which bathroom to use!! More to the point, their freedoms are not being threatened.

Pretty sure it won't happen but imagine feminists protesting with guns. People trying to protect planned parenthood protesting with guns. Anyone protesting for the rights of people of color in general, women, the lgbtq community, americans who aren't traditionally protected, muslims, immigrants an so on did in fact protest with guns. Might want to put your ear to the ground a little more or turn up that hearing aid. Check out the Pink Pistols!

NOPE.

Well other than in states like Texas where they have gutted the system under the guise of "tort reform" you can sue for malpractice
