but Fox is ignoring it as well.
they ain't ignoring it locally, was on fox5dc this morning and it didn't seem like they were begrudgingly reporting it either.

There are 95 counties in VA so... 81 counties, 10 cities, and 10 townships arenow 2a sanctuaries. maybe there's the math???
Either way, this is big. And what really pisses me off is that the national media outlets are ignoring it. I'd expect that from CNN and MSNBC, but Fox is ignoring it as well.
So which one of you is using that "New Math" to come up with your numbers?
while wjla (dc channels 7 & 8) and fox5dc pretty much accurately (and actually, excitedly) reported the facts on this phenomena, nbc4dc said 'a few rural counties' have adopted it. i sent eun and aaron a nastygram with the vcdl map showing the vast majority of virginia counties have adopted, absolute bs they won't accurately report the facts. i guess to them, 'freedom of the press' means freedom to skew their reporting to meet their agenda.
...Suggest that only a simple "peasant" would be stupid enough to give up a right as fundamental as 2A.
Point of history here. Those who are saying "civil war" have their calendars set about 86 years too late. What is happening in VA right now is more like 1775 in Lexington and Concord. The tyrants need to be reminded that the last time they tried to take away the people's guns, things ended up rather badly for the tyrants.
We’re not people, citizens, Patriots, veterans or anything else vaguely resembling respectable.Unfortunately we have reached a point where the government no longer fears its people.
