MN, TX, FL, CA they are on the hit list make no mistake about it.
The Vast Majority of Virginian's are Very Pro Gun! If we had an Electoral College here, we would not be in this big mess! The Problem is this: Northern Va ( Densely Populated) is VERY Liberal (Government Employees! ) Then you have the Coastal section, Liberals and High population, then you have Richmond, High Population Liberals.
But, 90% of Virginia's Counties are Rural and Conservative.
This past Election, too many Gun Owners did not vote. Sad, but true! We must defeat these bills on a Grassroots level.

No freeman shall be debarred the use of arms.
Thomas Jefferson
“Laws that forbid the carrying of arms...disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes... Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than to prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man.” Thomas Jefferson

My kids both live within a mile of Arlington Cemetery - right in the middle of the swamp. A growing problem is that with the Amazon center they are building in Arlington, gentrification is going to be a huge problem for conservative middle class homeowners as property values skyrocket. The yuppies that are flocking in from Cali don't drive cars or buy houses, they live in high rise apartment buildings and walk to work, and take Uber or the subway whenever they need to go somewhere.
