Remember, nothing has been passed yet. They can add language to the laws to put maximum torque on uncooperative jurisdictions (loss of state funds, state takeover of responsibilities, even criminal action against local government officials who resist, etc.).

You guys have a little war going on down there, and right now the enemy has the high ground (the ability to pass any state law they want.)

He is correct. We have a very big family and we know our history.

And the family is a lot bigger than a city, county, or even the entire state of Virginia. These crooked bastards are messing with the wrong peoples rights.

Looks like Rockingham County is poised to join the resistance. I’m told the sheriff is behind us but he’s still not saying anything publicly. I’ll be at the BoS meeting tomorrow night.

You got a link? This one says they didn’t vote for it. Same thing but different language?

https://www.13newsnow.com/amp/...a4-8959-8202d8b78a75

Just curious because my brother in law is a Marine stationed there/living in Williamsburg.

I’m not familiar with VA, but I’m just staying up on the news for him.

I'm really heartened by this movement. I hope those of us in other states that are under attack can muster similar strength and follow this example.

You can't truly call yourself "peaceful" unless you are capable of great violence. If you're not capable of great violence, you're not peaceful, you're harmless.

So...whatever they voted for in that article means they’re technically a sanctuary city?

That's certainly the take I got from it and the reaction of the crowd, yes.
It took us 2 hours standing outside to even make it into the lobby. Huge crowd.

I got me an idea, tell me if you guys think it makes sense. What if we at set our VA withholding to zero on 1/1/20, put it in a savings account, and pay the taxes on 4/15/21. Zero tax penalty for that. Call/email/write our BoS, and state Reps and tell them if they want our money, affirm the Bill of Rights and VA Constitution.

quote:

Article I, § 13 of the Virginia Constitution:

That a well regulated militia, composed of the body of the people, trained to arms, is the proper, natural, and safe defense of a free state, therefore, the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed;


Could the state fund everything if they were without a quarter million people paying taxes for a year and four months? How much would lack of funding affect the 'kick the door in and snatch the guns fund'?

Could they vote to issue bonds quickly to offset the year of no gun owner taxes? Not sure how quickly they could react to a sudden shortfall of revenue or if it would actually affect budget/reserves.

What do you all think?

They wouldn't care. Since when did a democrat care about fiscal responsibility ? I've haven't seen that in a long time from a democrat.

So, used to be- and not anymore, I am certain- kids in grade school memorized at least part of the Declaration of Independence. All Americans my age are familiar with the part that says:

"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.

...and that's about all your average Fourth Grader could memorize. But, immediately after that part comes something which all Virginians- and all Americans for that matter- need to be thinking about these days:

"That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, — That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security."

Food for thought

"...their right..."

"...their duty..."
