Emboldened by a new Republican majority in Richmond, some 200 people rallied on Capitol Square Monday to push gun-friendly legislation, hours before a crowd occupied the same space to commemorate victims of gun violence. [More]200? Hell, I found 1,250 firearms-related businesses alone in VA. Why the hell weren't there 200,000?
I remember we got about 200 gun owners to show up at a demonstration in LA--the weekend after 40,000 of them managed to drag themselves to the big area gun show back when it was still allowed at the LA County Fairgrounds. Most didn't lift a finger to stop its expulsion from happening, either.
Pathetic, the number of do-nothing welfare parasites in "our" ranks. Yeah, let someone else do it. Profiles in Apathy, that is, the gungrabbers' best friends, strike again.
On the plus side, it looks like the cud-chewers did a lot worse.And here's a wonderful illustration of how they operate:
“We think that the laws on the books in Virginia are reasonable,” [Lori Haas] said.Followed immediately by:
Sen. A. Donald McEachin, Henrico Democrat, said at the afternoon vigil that he planned to introduce legislation calling for universal background checks for gun purchases.Gee, they're so "reasonable," we must have more!
Not that the frickin' Republicans will do anything beyond the bare minimum needed to exploit gun owner desperation...
And they can get away with it because, as we observed, only 200 showed up.
