Good for VA and common sense. Many of those on the left cannot understand anything that doesn't require the government to wipe your butt for you.

I did a quick check and Stevie Wonder doesn't have any concerts scheduled there, so I'm guessing Virginia does have a SYG law. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheMadCap Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 Don't know about the stand your ground laws, but Skittles are regulated. There was some poor schlub pulled over next to the Richmond Colisuem this morning, my friend looked at me and said, "must have had skittles"...

B-Man Posted August 9, 2013 Share Posted August 9, 2013 Democratic anti-gun 'guide' urged using Trayvon Martin's death to hit NRA, guns http://washingtonexaminer.com/democratic-anti-gun-guide-urged-using-trayvon-martins-death-to-hit-nra-guns/article/2533972 This really dishonors the victims of these mass killers. You know who it also dishonors? The guy who was found not guilty in a court of law for the Trayvon Martin shooting. The guide spells out how to talk about gun control and when to press the issue, the best time being in the wake of a publicized shooting. For example, it calls on gun control advocates to speak out, “don’t wait” for the facts, after a shooting like Martin’s heightens awareness of the issue. “The debate over gun violence in America is periodically punctuated by high-profile gun violence incidents including Columbine, Virginia Tech, Tucson, the Trayvon Martin killing, Aurora, and Oak Creek. When an incident such as these attracts sustained media attention, it creates a unique climate for our communications efforts,” said the guide. How about that? Using a tragedy creates a “unique opportunity” to spread your wildly misleading propaganda? Shameless. “A high-profile gun violence incident temporarily draws more people into the conversation about gun violence,” added the talking points. “We should rely on emotionally powerful language, feelings and images to bring home the terrible impact of gun violence,” said the guide, which also urged advocates use images of scary looking guns and shooting scenes to make their point. And by all means avoid the truth at all times. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the guide is like everything else I've ever seen produced for almost any issue (the oil companies make particularly nice ones. As do the environmentalists. Environmental propaganda's always the best.) There's no advice in it that isn't used by damn near everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B-Man Posted August 9, 2013 Share Posted August 9, 2013 (edited) That extremist NRA....................... Majority of Parents with School-Aged Children Would Feel Safer with Armed Guards at School A majority of American parents with grade-school children say they would feel safer if their child attended a school with an armed guard, according to a new Rasmussen poll. Sixty-two percent of those surveyed said they’d feel safer if their child attended such a school, against only 24 percent who say they’d feel safer if their child went to a school where no adult was allowed to own a gun. Fifteen percent weren’t sure. The poll comes a week after Arkansas’s attorney general, Democrat Dustin McDaniel, said school districts in his state can’t employ teachers and staff as armed guards on campus because a state board that licenses private security agencies didn’t have the authority to allow them to do so. He did, however, say his ruling wouldn’t stop schools from contracting with private companies or using law enforcement as school-resource officers.

Tiberius Posted August 14, 2013 Share Posted August 14, 2013 I apologize if this has already been posted but this will be interesting to see if Christie vetoes a ban on .50s. Ok, I'd love to own and shoot one, but they should be banned, imo.
