No one wants to take your guns away. But the majority in Virginia have spoken. They are tired of the gun violence in their state. Can you blame them?
Then THIS is the problem they need to address:
"Between 2007 and 2018, 72% of all homicides involved guns in Virginia, and black males ages 20-24 had the highest rates of gun-relate homicide."
"Petersburg City had the highest gun-related homicide rates between 2013 and 2017, followed by Richmond City, Danville City, Emporia City and Norfolk City."

People in Virginia need to start a recall of the governor. Districts need to start a recall of their Democrat representatives.
It takes a petition signed by 10% of the voters in the last election to start a recall there. One of the first bills this newly elected group introduced is to raise that to 25% and to put a 60 day time limit on it.
It's related mostly to semi-automatic rifles and not guns in general. Most people have no clue that this is 11 yrs in the making dating back to the altercation and death of Tahliek Taliaferro and injury of three others. This was the foundation and numerous the other occurrences that happened afterwards.

The NRA pushing laws, which allow for the unlimited purchase of firearms, is being shown to not fulfil the result the NRA claimed would happen.
More guns do not mean less crime. In fact they show more violent crime occurs.
Screw the NRA, a gun purchase needs no justification. And certainly no permission from from politicians and their violent govt
