have declared themselves Second Amendment sanctuaries.
Yet the powers that be in Richmond have decided not to back down and plan on enacting unconstitutional gun control laws. Interesting.
There is a protest march scheduled in Richmond for 20 January and from what I have heard the Virginia State Police already estimate that it will be attended by 30,000 people. It is very possible that these figures are low.
For a perspective there are only 7500 people in the Virginia National guard and an inordinate number of them come from the sanctuary counties. It is certain that many of these have no intention of supporting the muckety-mucks running Richmond. An awful lot of these people own guns that are on the proposed ban list.
A number of these will probably call in sick or whatever and it is entirely possible there will be a mutiny. At the very least there will be a lot of foot dragging.
Many plan on attending armed and in full battle kit which should make things interesting. It looks to me like it is more of a show of force than a quiet protest.
Yet the elected officials are probably pretty naive and will likely enact the legislation and we shall see what we shall see.
I have said that a tarring and feathering of a few of these elected officials should make a statement that will get the rest of them to change their minds. I'm not too sure about that anymore.
People in power tend to be insulated and many seem to think they are immune to whatever comes down the pike. Others it has been reported have out and out been bought. They're going to have to drum up an awful lot of cash to pay it back and they are likely scared of what happens if they don't do the bidding for the benefactor.
We may very well be near the time where the people have to revert back to a little Old School persuasion if they want to keep their liberties. I'm sure a lot of people think it's time to dig the pitchfork out of the barn and find a torch of some sort and pay these people a little visit in their homes. Can't say as I blame them.
