Title: Congrats Virginia - McAuliffe wants to reinstate handgun restrictions
Post by: Pandora on December 17, 2014, 07:00:00 AM
... McAuliffe (D.) announced on Monday that he will seek to reinstate a restriction on gun sales that limits individuals in the state to one handgun purchase a month. (http://freebeacon.com/issues/mcauliffe-wants-to-bring-back-handgun-restriction-in-virginia/)

The law was repealed during the previous administration of Gov. Bob McDonnell (R.).

McAuliffe’s request for the Republican-dominated legislature to reinstate the law is likely to fall on deaf ears, according to a report by Reuters.

McAuliffe announced plans for multiple other restrictions on gun owners, such as a requirement for private vendors at gun shows to run background checks, and to revoke concealed carry permits from parents who are delinquent on child support payments, according to the report.

WTF!  How about for littering?!

Yeah...figures...once a national socialist...

IIRC the control of the VA Senate is dicey no matter who is in charge...I think the Pubbies are but by slim margin, I believe they have a larger majority in the House of Delegates, so hopefully they hold firm and tell Terry the Tyrant what he can go do to himself!

And yeah, littering...or how about being a registered voter who isn't a left-wing stooge while he's at it?

Fricken national socialists!

"Permit." That right there is the problem. As you can see here the state acts like it can grant and deny at its own prerogative.

Part of why yours truly still does not have a CCW. I'm not exactly venturing into the world unheeled either, IYKWIMAITYD.
