Laws Won't Make Us Safer

Mike Bloomberg has set his sights on Virginia.  He wants to push his own socialist agenda down our throats and his checkbook has bought him support from Democrats far and wide.  

This is a fight they shouldn't start.  Over 90% of Virginia counties have declared themselves Second Amendment Sanctuaries (see map below).  It is clear the vast majority of Virginians do not want more gun control.  As I mentioned before, gun control is not about guns or making us safer, it is about control.  Those pushing gun control just want control of the citizens.  They don't like us to be able to protect ourselves and our families.  

A friend and I took part in the VCDL gun rights rally this week.   It was amazing to see so many people from all walks of life united in one thing - our love for freedom.  There we people shoulder-to-shoulder for three blocks around the Capital!  The news coverage of this event was a joke.  They called it a rally of white supremacists and expected violence.  What actually happened was an enormous number of gun owners showed-up for a peaceful rally to remind our Governor and Legislature that they are supposed to represent us. 

The Senate already has passed a number of bad bills including Universal Background check, One Handgun a Month and the worst of the all: Red Flag Gun Confiscation.  These are an assault on our liberty and should not be tolerated.  I'm sure any of these that make it into law will be challenged in court but that doesn't mean we should depend on the court to throw them out.  Let's get really active in the political process and try to stop them from becoming law.
