Virginians are in lockdown until June 10th. And to further reduce the loss of life, no one is permitted to gather for religious worship. But if you’d like to end a life terminate a pregnancy, even after the fact, by all means, gather and make those sacrifices at will.
This: Meanwhile Scott Gottlieb, whose recommendations apparently are driving the federal government’s response, is talking about August as when we can expect to return to “some elements” of our “normal lives”: If we keep this country on lockdown until July or August, there will be no “normal” to come back to.

Now that the Virginia Gun rally is over, we have to acknowledge that it was indeed a noble, valiant effort. But it was also wasted – too little, too late.

It’s not so much secession as a realignment of interests. And it’s not the first time. West Virginia exists because of disagreements with the folks in Richmond a while back. Culture, war, slavery, and 150 plus years after that, it’s the right to keep and bear arms.
The same day Virginia elected Democrats into power in every corner of government; Democrats did what they do. They overreached. Rootin-Tootin, Maoist Gun grabbing Yahoos! The response from Virginian’s suggests they forgot to vote because the blowback is epic.
Kudos for refusing to back down on your gun confiscation promises. And hey, the tone-deafness is impressive.

The incoming Democrat majority in the Virginia State legislature has stated intentions to pass gun control confiscation in January to address the Governor’s call for “common-sense public safety laws” — including universal background checks and bans on assault-style weapons and bump stocks. 75 Virginia counties pushed back and preemptively declared themselves Second Amendment sanctuaries in … Read more
The States as laboratories narrative is getting a test drive in Virginia. With no one to stop them, Democrats have put the accelerator on the left-win agenda to the floor.
