McAuliffe Signs Executive Order on Gun Control Measures

[jimbobborg]

Wake up Virginia! Send this POS packing in 3yrs!

Governors in Virginia are limited to one term. That's it. And since we're going back to paper ballots, no more electronic shenanigans.

ETA For some reason, Virginia allows out of state college students to vote in elections here. We need to get rid of that.

No electronic shenanigans will just be replaced with paper shenanigans.

Can't stop democrats from being democrats.

Food for thought whenever a politician orders "common sense" measures in response to a crisis:

If it's "common sense," why didn't you and the legislature enact it in normal times, even years ago, instead of when you need a crisis to exploit?

Chances are high that with all the myriad laws on the books at the federal, state, and local levels, every "common sense" law has already been enacted, or at least considered and rejected -- for common sense reasons.

This has never stopped liberals in the past.

If only McAwful actually were a Liberal, like me, then he wouldn't be doing this nonsense. Unfortunately, he's a Democrat, so he does it.

You are absolutely correct my friend. However, I will say that VCDL is pretty vicious when it comes to this type of nonsense.

Yes, we are. Any time our 2A rights are threatened in Virginia, we are there. That's our job.

I hope they rip him a new ventral slit. Maybe that will make Bloomberg's money (and the Hildebeast's patronage) less attractive.

Hillary Rotten Clinton would love nothing more than for us to do nothing. Same with Bloom-boy. But they, as usual, are WRONG. I assure you, the VCDL is already watching and reviewing, with legal team examining options.

You all think McAwful wants to stop there? 99% chance he's going to try to follow in Warner's and Kaine's steps and run for Senator. Or he's buckin' to be Hillary Rotten Clinton's running mate.

some agendas are pushed no matter what by persons who are unable to think rationally...

I wonder how much Bloomberg paid for this.

Officially to the DNC or in an unmarked envelope to McAwful ?

Not that ...

Hot on the heels of her Benghazi hearings, he first has to deliver VA for The HildeBeast in 2016, then he'll will be offered quid pro quo for a Senate bid.

Hillary Clinton to rally supporters with McAuliffe in Northern Virginia

The stakes are high for McAuliffe, too, as he raises money and rallies voters in hopes of winning control of the state Senate from Republicans, who have a 21 to 19 advantage in the upper chamber. One vote separates the parties, because Lt. Gov. Ralph Northam (D) is the tiebreaker.

“Hillary Clinton will help show Virginians what’s at stake this November on issues like women’s health and preventing gun violence. While Republicans race to the extreme right, Virginia Democrats are building a new Virginia economy for everyone to succeed,” said Brian Zuzenak, executive director of McAuliffe’s PAC, Common Good VA.

Why do I have a feeling that will involve ... TAX INCREASES?

Can't run from these libtards - they will find you, destroy your environment, then move on, leaving a legacy of government dependents.

Blame it all on the 'rich' liberals who abandoned O'Malley's liberal 'tax & spend' paradise to the other side of the Potomac, only to elect the same in VA.

You can almost track the shift from red to blue, and freedom to overt gun-control on those number of 'migrants' who fled tyranny only to start all over against an unsuspecting citizenry.

Oh, wait ... where have I heard THAT before.

Close, Govs in VA are limited to 2 terms, but they cannot serve those terms consecutively.

OK, I'm pissed. My co-worker sent me a text this AM warning me that there was a new gun busters sign at the entrance to our parking garage. AFAIK our building is NOT occupied by an Executive Branch agency and the building itself is NOT owned by the Commonwealth. I emailed the building manager and she said that she received several signs recently and a copy of this:

I asked for alternate parking accommodations, but won't hold my breath. Everyone I work with is an anti. Freaking pissed!!!

VCDL-ILA will be receiving a nice donation from this guy.

Hi, everyone. Long time lurker, first time poster. This regulation is now open to public comments. Check out the VCDL update below. If you live, work or even remotely think of Virginia, please considering chiming in. Right now there are 1950 comments and I've only seen two saying anything remotely positive.

Subject: VA-ALERT: IMPORTANT ACTION ITEM: Comment on permanent state-agency gun ban!

The Governor has an “emergency” state-agency gun ban in place. That emergency ban runs out in 18 months. What will follow it, is a permanent gun ban.

The permanent gun ban is being done following the normal method - it is listed in the Regulatory Town Hall and is required to get comments from the public for about six weeks. I am told by someone who would know that if we can provide an overwhelming number of comments providing good reasons for the regulation not to be implemented, we stand a chance of stopping the regulation if the press picks up on the issue and runs with it.

Simply urging the Governor to drop the idea is a waste of time, as he has already made up his mind. We want to get the attention of the press and others.

As a bonus, with a huge negative response, the Governor cannot point to the Regulatory Town Hall and say that no one responded because they agree with what he is doing!

Unlike letters and email sent to the Governor, which he can hide from disclosure by placing them in his “Governor’s working papers,” your comments in the Regulatory Town Hall are public and visible to all.

Another important note. If at least 25 of us also request that the comment period be extended, it will get another 30 days added to the cut-off date (currently January 27th).


Here is the link where you can enter your comments:

Fill in your name, email address.

Suggested Subject/Title: Something like “This regulation is dangerous to public safety,” or “Why deny Virginia citizens right to self-defense?” or “Government buildings are targets of terrorism, why make it easier for terrorists to succeed?” (Whatever title you decide on, make sure it is clear by just reading the title that you oppose the regulation. Don’t depend on someone reading your message to figure out your position.)

Suggested message:
This proposed regulation will have the opposite of the intended affect by playing into the hands of terrorists, violent criminals, and the criminally insane. We have had no shootings in state agencies and this prohibition on those with a concealed handgun permit, some of whom have active and ongoing threats to their lives, is entirely without any justification and needlessly and recklessly endangers innocent lives.

Disarming good citizens (who are the only ones likely to obey the prohibition) does not make them safer.

Importantly the Governor has no authority for this regulation. If the General Assembly wanted the Governor to have such power, they would have granted it to him explicitly, as is required constitutionally.

This proposed regulation is a solution for which there is no problem. It endangers state employees, law abiding citizens, and the innocent by making state buildings a safe zone for terrorists, criminals, and the criminally insane to conduct their evil and savage actions.

This regulations should not be approved and the emergency regulation withdrawn.

Please extended the comment period for another 30 days.

——————

I encourage you to customize the message, including adding your own talking points. Some points you might wish to integrate (you don’t need to do all of them):

* All but two of the public massacres since 1950 had been committed by criminals and terrorists in “gun-free zones,” which is exactly what this regulation creates
* Off-duty police officers are also prevented from carrying
* Bans in rest stops send a very uninviting message to, and endanger the lives of, interstate travelers
* The cost of providing additional security to protect everyone who has been disarmed by this regulation will be prohibitive
* The ban won’t hold up in court, due to lack of authority by the Governor
* If parking lots are included in the ban, then citizens will be disarmed to and from their residences and everywhere in between

WE NEED TO CREATE A MASSIVE RESPONSE! Cross post this to your friends, family members, fellow employees, church groups, chat groups, etc., etc.

As of 9:33 PM on the first day of the comment period there are a total of only ELEVEN comments. You can check back on the Regulatory Town Hall using the comment link to watch as the comments pour in.

I was floored today! I walked into the liquor store and saw a big sign with a 'no guns' symbol on it. It couldn't have been a few days earlier that there was no sign there. The fine print under the sign, 'Effective October 15, 2015 by emergency executive order of the Governor .....' (paraphrasing). Unbelievable! A state run monopoly (ABC) has now banned guns in its stores. McAwful needs to go!

It's time to bring back tar and feathers.

Isn't this part of what I heard Barry was asking governors to do? Looks like the ass to the south is falling in line. Let him follow Barry to the guillotine.

My whole building is "gun free" because the administration rents a single small, one room office for the Secretary of Technology (which she never uses). What's to stop the administration from having hundreds of "offices" around the Commonwealth?
