No justice, no peace, right?
Surprised that it didn't make the bigger news. "Pro-gun White Racists attack Bloomberg Rally".
The Second Amendment ACKNOWLEDGES our right to own and bear arms that are in common use that can be used for lawful purposes. The arms can be restricted ONLY if subject to historical analogue from the founding era or is dangerous (unsafe) AND unusual.
It's that simple.

The RKBA predates the Second Amendment and it wasn't smallarms the Redcoats were after when the revolution began.

That we manage to kill the bill? Probably not great, but that won't stop many of us from trying.

Just to update this thread. The AWB bill died in the VA Senate Judiciary Committee this morning.
Hats off to the Virginia Citizens Defense League and Philip Van Cleave for managing a very difficult situation from the myriad of bills, to the rally which could have gone south very quickly, to organizing folks to be at the capital lobbing and sitting in on debates and day of votes. Thank you for your tireless work!

It’s not dead, just tabled to be studied. It can be reintroduced in a year. Hopefully they will realize it could effect there chances of re-election in 2021. I think they would be desperate to vote that through that close to the VA election in 2021.

The bill in its current form is dead (politically speaking). The magazine limit to 12 rounds was a nonstarter.

The bill isn't dead. It has been shelved for a year while they get a committee to "study" the issue. I'm sure it will be brought back up later as it is an issue they will never give up on. Either way, they got some of their anti-gun agenda through and into law. And there are other anti-gun legislation bills that still have to be voted on. Not a time to get complacent on these issue.
"Other gun control bills have, however, made it through the Virginia House and Senate. These include measures that would ban guns in certain areas and buildings, require universal background checks, limit how frequently people can buy handguns and allow law enforcement to temporarily take guns away from someone they deem dangerous."
