Clearing the Board
The Governor vetoed 30 gun-control bills, modified 6 other gun-control bills so that they no longer pose a threat to Virginia’s lawful gun-owners, and he signed 4 bills that had been modified in the General Assembly changing VCDL’s position from Oppose to Neutral. There are no more gun-control bills left. [More]
And making lemonade out of lemons:
Today, the Virginia chapters of Moms Demand Action and Students Demand Action, both part of Everytown for Gun Safety’s grassroots network, issued the following statements applauding Governor Youngkin for signing two gun safety measures into law, including a measure to prohibit auto sears, which are devices that convert semi-automatic firearms into fully automatic weapons, HB 22 (Del. Jones)/SB 210 (Sen. Perry) and a measure to hold gun owners accountable for allowing children under their care with certain dangerous histories to access firearms, HB 36 (Del. Willet)/SB 44 (Sen. Van Valkenburg).
Even though those bills only parrot what are already federal laws, VCDL being “neutral” doesn’t cut it. The federal laws infringe on Virginia gun owners, and as such, both are should be opposed.

RFK Jr Answers on Guns Miss Key Points & Leave Door Open for More Infringements
Nowhere has Kennedy shown that he understands any of this, or of the true purpose and meaning of the Second Amendment. Instead, his “going after people’s guns at this point in history” qualifier is a red flag – it implies there might come another time or set of circumstances where he’ll return to his past hostility to guns and decide the time is right. [More]
The guy’s assurances on guns all come with huge escape clauses. So why are so many gun owners being taken in by equivocal platitudes?

Gun Prohibitionists Show True Colors by What They DON’T Say of Russian Mass Shooting
Plenty of other reports will talk about all this, so let’s look at an aspect of this story not getting any press—and that’s deliberate. Let’s look at what the gun prohibitionists, who are always quick to gin up the mob and demand more infringements before the facts are known, aren’t saying about the Russia concert massacre and why.

In fact, he did not, but that doesn’t stop the ever-subversive Drudge from spreading another election-influencing lie, like last time and the time before.
“Real reporter” Vassia Barba and Mirror UK figure there’s no editorializing in repeatedly prefacing his name with “disgraced former President.” What else would we expect from someone with “a particular interest in social justice issues, which she is chasing with an MA in Race, Media and Social Justice”?
This is foreign election interference.
