Virginia Is Only the Beginning :: 01/23/2020

Despite smears and scare tactics from the Virginia law enforcement and the corporate press, thousands of protestors have landed in the capital of Old Dominion in response to an anti-gun agenda being pushed by the new solid-blue state government.

Moms Demand Action Spokesperson: Richmond A "Temper Tantrum" :: 01/22/2020

While I vehemently disagree with most gun control proponents, I rarely doubt what they really want. No, it’s not really about control, not for most folks on that side of the fence, anyway.

I’m pro-gun, pro-Second Amendment, and completely opposed to Virginia Democrats’ gun control agenda.
