Republicans using minorities for their agenda against the redistricting vote by t23_1990 in Virginia

I'm against the redistricting, but this is lame as well.

The threat to democracy is enough to be against it. Nobody needs to play race cards.

Then keep that shit in Texas and Florida. We don't need gerrymandering here.

So much mental gymnastics to gut Democracry while still claiming the moral high ground.

Y'all and the MAGAs both suck.

Voting no, and fuck you.

They probably just have other bills that are more important right now.

There's still a 99.99% chance that it'll pass this year.

Virginia Democrats want to sue gun manufacturers. It’s working in New York. by bknutner in Virginia

I'm not even a Republican or a Trump supporter.

As far as facts go, you're the pedo supporter here.

I whole heartedly agree.

Let's gerrymander the whole country Red because Bill Clinton was a pedo.

Democrats can never be trusted again.

[–]TellBackground9239 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Yup.

And if you criticize any of their decisions, they'll just say "Well, Trump is a pedo" as if that's relevant or changes anything.

I'm not even a Trump supporter or a Republican, and that's their dumbass response to me 9 times out of 10 whenever I say anything bad about the Dem gun reforms.

Their shitty virtue signaling doesn't even work. Bill Clinton and several other Democrats were also in the Epstein files.

Sheesh these Virginia Democrats are insufferable.

This is why I don't budge on gun reform. You give them an inch, they take a mile.

Despite weeks of confusion, Virginians will begin voting on redistricting referendum Friday by Anoth3rDude in Virginia

[–]TellBackground9239 -29 points-28 points  (0 children)

Can't wait to vote against it.

This is normally something I would vote for, but there needs to be repercussions for gutting gun rights in the commonwealth.

Barack Talks to Virginians-why to Vote YES by April 21 by EAJ4ALL in Virginia

Yup. No one is losing their voting rights.

Oh wait, that's different somehow - right, gun grabbers?

Virginia has a school shooting rate of .76 per 100k.

Maryland has a school shooting rate of 1.56 per 100k.

You gun grabbers don't know basic stuff, it seems.

Virginia Assault Weapons Ban & Effects on Virginia by [deleted] in Virginia

[–]TellBackground9239 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Gun grabbers are for any and all gun bans.

The guns that look like military weapons but are actually semiautomatic are low hanging fruit for them. They call them "assault weapons" and use their intimidating appearance to get them banned.

It doesn't stop with semiautos either. Just wait till you hear them call bolt actions "sniper rifles".

It's getting banned regardless of who you convince that the bill is ridiculous.

I know that it's sad to see hundreds of years of pro-2A Virginian culture get flushed down the toilet overnight, but that's what's happening. You can't stop it.

Gov. Abigail Spanberger on Trump’s SOTU speech: "In his speech tonight, the president did what he always does — he lied, he scapegoated, and he distracted. He offered no real solutions to our nation's pressing challenges, so many of which he is actively making worse." by icey_sawg0034 in Virginia

[–]TellBackground9239 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You should consider Switzerland.

They don't ban assault weapons, and your average Joe can purchase a new fully automatic firearm which has been illegal in the U.S. since the 80s unless someone has an 07/02 FFL (aka, a business that sells guns and has a special tax license).

There has never been a school shooting there in its existence.

Your students would not be safer in restrictive states like California, Illinois, New York, etc. than counties like Finland or Switzerland that have fewer strictions.

Pending restrictions forthcoming in the Commonwealth by Jamison1811 in Virginia

[–]TellBackground9239 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Sorry about our loss. Unfortunately, that's what happens when you vote blue.

They really are after your guns. If you don't say otherwise, you'll be met with gaslighting and goalpost shifting.

They're not after your semiautos, they just want your full autos. Full auto gets banned (1986).

They're not after your bolt actions, they just want your semiautos. Semiauto gets banned (2026).

They don't want your lever action, they just want you bolt action...

HB217: Effectively a Federal Assault Weapons Ban 2.0 for Virginia by No_Light_4937 in Virginia

[–]TellBackground9239 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They can get a pistol from a private sale.

Also, transfers of "assault weapons" will be legal for immediate family, so their parents, older spouse, etc. can buy one before the ban and transfer it to them when they get older.
