Uprising: 90% of Virginia counties become gun ‘sanctuaries,’ expanding movement to nine states

WaEx: Stirred awake by Democratic proposals to take, register, and possibly seize their legally obtained weapons, Virginia gun owners in just 43 days have pushed 90% of the state’s counties to become gun “sanctuaries,” the latest three on Monday night.

Since the Nov. 5 election that gave Democrats control of Richmond, an “organic,” pro-gun movement has prompted the governments of 86 of Virginia’s 95 counties, as well as 15 towns and cities, to adopt some type of sanctuary language, putting Gov. Ralph Northam and other liberals on notice that their gun control plans aren’t welcome.

“I did not think it would be that high of a number,” said sanctuary advocate and Culpeper County Sheriff Scott Jenkins.

“It’s an organic thing that just took off after Election Day. Elections have consequences, and this is the result. This has truly rocked the conservative, libertarian group’s core. It has really shook a lot of them awake. They are fully awake,” he told Secrets.

Remarkably, the effort has not seen a big push from the National Rifle Association. Local groups, notably the Virginia Citizens Defense League, have led the campaign that has brought thousands of gun-rights advocates to county board meetings. read more

  1. Wont it be a hoot when Northam actually mobilizes the Guard and he finds out most of the Guard are children of the people he’s trying to intimidate?

    Just try it, Ralphie. You’re likely to see a Kent State in reverse. They’re gonna turn around and point the guns at you. At that point you’ll have to put on blackface just to escape

  2. I think this is good – there is going to be a second Civil War after November 2020. When President Trump wins again, Antifa and the Democrat party are going to go “ape-wild”. If the Democrat party wins (probably through fraud), the country will not sit quietly back.

  3. And that, y’all, is how we Virginians began to redeem ourselves and reclaim our way of life from the carpetbaggers –most of whom live in the cities, not the counties.

  4. We’ve known what the communists are after for many years. We were thought to be radicals in the past and now the communists have brought us into the mainstream. Resist the communist with non violent means until the communist brings violence into the contest.

  5. I can’t help but think the democrats and rinos are goading us into a civil war and will use that as a pretext to confiscate our weapons.

    they will take us out one at a time in the middle of the night.
    your neighbors won’t even know it is happening until it too late.
    the feds will claim you are a threat.

    they will slowly eliminate private gun ownership that way.

    Who are they going to get to actually do it? Not even the military will obey those orders, especially the married ones with children who don’t want to leave a widow behind.

  7. What country ever existed a century and a half without a rebellion? And what country can preserve it’s liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants. It is it’s natural manure.

  8. I would like to know where all these “citizens” were in November….. WTF!
    Considering the location of the swamp, it just makes sense that they would want a gun free buffer around them.
    I suggested after the “passage” of obamacare, that 1,000,000 angry people each armed with a railroad spike and a three # maul should march on capital hill and nail some fucking heads to desks (a la Vlad) just to start over…… but NOOOOOOOOO…..
    Couldn’t get anyone on board then.
