Virginia Democrats float prosecution, National Guard deployment if police don't enforce gun control

https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/n...ce-gun-control

Democratic lawmakers on Capitol Hill say local police who do not enforce gun control measures likely to pass in Virginia should face prosecution and even threats of the National Guard.

This is good news guys. It shows the amount of opposition, the extent to which that disturbs the statist anti-2A crowd, the stated willingness of those statists to kill everyone (implied) to get their way, and tells the huge masses of don't-care-much-either-way that the statists are crazy and dangerous. The ban crowd is losing their public support from all but the true believers; Joe Average will go with whichever side sounds less crazy dangerous at a moment in time, and right now the antis sound crazy dangerous.

And for everyone outside VA, it shows the danger of your state being taken hostage by crazy leftists exploiting political-demographic changes in just a handful of highly populated areas. Your state could be next, wherever you live.

Agreed. I posted a devil's advocate post about how this may only empower the left to actually go through with it, but largely, it's showing that the warning about gun confiscation was not tinfoil hat stuff. I remember how after Hurricane Katrina, the mayor basically suspended the constitution and NOPD officers literally went door to door and took everything. The video of the old lady being thrown to the ground so they could get her cap and ball pistol away from her I think sparked new life into our cause.

They turned the fire up on the frog with this. Unfortunately for the left, and fortunately for us, Eric Swalwell and Beto O'Roarke opened their cockholsters and basically told us we were right to worry. So, even though the Dems told us to write those guys off as marginal candidates talking out their ass, we knew better, and so I think the gun community was ready for this.

Something a VA guy at RedState overheard from a couple cops in his gunshop...

I was in a gun store the other day and two county police officers came in just looking around. One of the other patrons said something about the pending legislation and the cops said something derogatory I couldn't make out. The patron asked him what he was planning to do if Richmond planned on taking the guns. The cop said that he'd have to bury them like everybody else. His partner was grinning and nodding as well. I believe this is going to blow up in their faces.

We got some crap about to start in Washington state.

How do we get SCOTUS to take case involving a ban??

It is about time we settle this.

Have you signed the petition for I-1094 (repeal the 1639 bullshit) yet? If not, you need to get on it, they need to be mailed back by the 24th and they need every possible signature they can get.

More worrying is that Klippert down in Benton County has prefiled a bill that would exempt LEO's from 1639. And this guy pretends to be "pro-gun"... what I see there is an encore of when FOP said "hey, get us our Nationwide Carry and then we'll hold the door open for you" and then when we pushed HR218 LEOSA through welshed on the deal with a hearty "we got ours so screw you, suckers."

How do we get SCOTUS to take an AWB case? First, we need to either find whatever blackmail material the Dems have on Roberts and out it, or have one of the Left Five (incl Roberts) stroke out or have an aneurysm or just decide that time's short and they need to spend what they have left with family so we can get Amy Coney Barrett on the bench.

Probably like this. They usually don't take anything unless two circuit courts disagree on something, or if shit is about to go down. And shit is about to go down.
