In a surprise move, a House panel voted Wednesday to repeal a state law that forbids the carrying of handguns on property and buildings owned by state, county and city governments - including parks and playgrounds.
"I think the recent Virginia disaster - or catastrophe or nightmare or whatever you want to call it - has woken up a lot of people to the need for having guns available to law-abiding citizens," said Rep. Frank Niceley, R-Strawberry Plains. "I hope that is what this vote reflects."
As amended, the legislation still wouldn't allow guns on school property, however.
Nicely done, Rep. Nicely. And brilliant amendment, Rep. Briley. But why not finish the job? Why do we leave the most obvious targets still vulnerable? Isn't it time to End the School Grounds Loophole? (Feel free to adopt this slogan.)
And why not challenge that idiot

And why not challenge that idiot Janis Sontany to publicly demonstrate what she would do if a madman started shooting up the place while she was there? Why not challenge antis everywhere to do this? (Feel free to adopt this tactic.)
I notice from her website she's doing a "Tour for Life" for animals. I guess her constituents' lives aren't as important or sacred as cats'.
