I personally know Gary Settle who is the VSP superintendent. He's a Northam appointee and generally a pos. He was caught banging the HS vice principals wife (who was the elementary schools vp) by a student and her mom.

I figured this is where the VSP were headed. They just became the enforcers of shitty laws and most will willing break their oath's to uphold the Constitution for their paycheck and benefits. I equated them to Hitler's henchmen yesterday on Facebook and I stand by that assertion. They'll claim they're just following orders just like they did yesterday when they kicked everyone out of the committee meeting.

We need to think real hard about not paying our taxes this year so the idiots in Richmond are forced to reduce operations and reflect on their poor choices. If one or two of us do it, we'll just be hit with fines. If EVERYONE with a gun does it, they'll get the point!

Silencers/suppressors

469 § 18.2-308.11. Import, sale, transfer, etc., of silencers; penalty.
470 A. For purposes of this section, "silencer" means any device for silencing, muffling, or diminishing
471 the report of a firearm, including any part or combination of parts designed or intended for use in
472 assembling or fabricating such a device.
473 B. It is unlawful for any person to import, sell, transfer, manufacture, or purchase a silencer,
474 provided that a person may transfer a silencer in accordance with the provisions of the National Firearms
475 Act (26 U.S.C. § 5801 et seq.). A violation of this section is punishable as a Class 6 felony.
476 C. The provisions of this section shall not apply to (i) any government officer, agent, or employee,
477 or member of the Armed Forces of the United States, to the extent that such person is otherwise authorized
478 to acquire a silencer and does so while acting within the scope of his duties; (ii) the manufacture of a
479 silencer by a firearms manufacturer for the purpose of sale to any branch of the Armed Forces of the
480 United States or to a law-enforcement agency in the Commonwealth for use by that agency or its
481 employees, provided that the manufacturer is properly licensed under federal, state, and local laws;
or (iii) 482 the sale or transfer of a silencer to any branch of the Armed Forces of the United States or to a law-
483 enforcement agency in the Commonwealth for use by that agency or its employees.

Can somebody please explain this section? Possession is OK, everything else is illegal, but transfer per NFA is legal. That has ALWAYS been the only legal way to transfer a Supressor! My head hurts reading that....

They are too lazy or stupid to get involved now but they’ll wish they had.

I am mildly encouraged right now. HB961 passed along a strict party vote, 12-9. That means the Republicans are staying strong. All it's going to take is a few Democrat legislators to look out the window and see that most of Virginia is rejecting the blatant anti-constitutional behavior exhibited by their party. A very impressive interactive map of Virginia shows that nearly the entire state has declared these actions null and void (as of 1/28/2020, 91 counties, 16 cities and 34 towns).

We need to keep the pressure on. There is hope.

I was there Friday. I was also there on the 13th and the 20th. I have asked a whole bunch of people to go with me. Friday I had two people go with me. On the 20th, I had one go with me. On the 13th I went with a group and we had 3 car loads. I have asked numerous people in person and thru various gun club email lists to go. It is damned hard to get them to go. I have talked to people that say the only way the govt. will get their guns is to kill them. I have talked to people that are going to hide or bury their guns. I have talked to people that are going to move out of state. I have talked to people that are too busy to go. I talked to one guy that was composing a letter. All of the people that I have talked too would be negatively effected by these laws. If you could tell me how to get twice the number of people to go, I would be delighted.

And from what I understand, there are 4 democratic senators that has stated they will not support an assault weapons ban. AFAIK, the AWB that was introduced into the senate died in committee. I also understand that there are enough dem senators set against it that an AWB cannot make it to Gov Killem Young's desk. You can bet these dem senators will come under immense pressure from the other Bloomberg-purchased politicians.
