Things are going pretty well so far, but it's important to keep on top of things.

I don't think Virginia residents who live outside the Northern Virginia area realize just how bad things are in this state.

I live in NoVA. Believe me, there are highrise apartment buildings going up everywhere around here. I can assure that the people moving into these buildings are not gun loving conservatives.

The bulk of the population has shifted. Virginia is now just a suburb of Washington D.C. just like New Jersey is just a suburb of New York City and New Hampshire is just a suburb of Boston.

And then they spill over to this end of the state... eesh.

All of the gun control bills have been killed. But they'll try again next year.

And we can thank the VCDL for that!

Sadly, all to true! I live just south of Manassas, and every time I go into town I see yet another high rise complex being built! And the somewhat puzzling part is that as soon as they open for occupancy they are filled up! Not to mention that a fairly large portion of those residents seem to be Hispanic. And the fitness place where I work out is over run with them, all day!

$25 for one year and it’s a bargain for how hard they fight for our state level 2nd amendment issues.

I’ve been a member of VCDL for 17 years.

Please consider contributing to their Political Action Committee also.

If you want to know more about them before joining, you can sign up for their e-mail alerts for free. If you decide you don’t like it just opt out and they will quickly remove you.

In addition to be 2A advocates they also privacy advocates. So they aren’t going to sell or mis-use your information.

Of course I the real strength of VCDL isn’t just from the number of members they have but from the activism of its members. So please don’t just join. Become active.

Well said sir. You’re 110% correct.

I need to join also. Thanks for the good info.

Unfortunately, in a lot of ways NOVA has become

the tail that wags the dog for the rest of the

state.

As population density rises, rational thought appears to decline. NOVA, Richmond and Tidewater areas have the numbers to overwhelm the rest of the state, perhaps for the foreseeable future. Yuk!
