    Virginia To Stop Recognizing CCW From 25 Other States

    Wow. Virginia is taking the dive now. They used to be a pretty friendly state to gun owners, but the Dims are taking over.

    Yeah this pisses me off. This is what happens when people sit out elections. This Democrat AG we got only won the election by 165 votes. The Republicans control our state houses so they've been able to block any anti-gun legislation but this kind of abuse of power is more difficult to counteract. They are putting forth a bill to make it a law that VA has reciprocity with all states which would take this kind of action out of the AG and governors hands. Let's see if it will pass, it should. I love living here but told my wife just the other day I doubt we will retire here. Too many libs in the NOVA area and over on the shore. We're another state where nearly everything is red except a few larger cities which are mostly civil service folks and they vote federal unions every time.

    I hope your VA legislators get the reciprocity thing passed. Fucking democraps going around the law to do things they way they want to in their leftist minds. Ref. Obama and his BS as well.

    This is one of those areas where our law allows this type of action however, it was never intended to allow taking action to correct an issue that doesn't exist. Kind of like a Governor declaring a state of emergency. Perfectly legal however to declare a state of emergency when there isn't one in order to accomplish something else isn't what the law was designated for.

    Barack Insane Obama has been doing it ever since he became Pres. AND no one has tried to stop him, so why not? They're just following the example set by him hoping for the same results.

    This really pisses me off, I loved traveling to Virginia Beach for summer vacation and being able to carry my firearm for self defense. Until this issue is corrected, I will never spend any of my tourist dollars in that state.

    This is so true, but remember, many republican voters refuse to hold their nose and vote for a candidate that is not 100% perfect, while the demos don't care and just vote their party. In doing so, we get King Barack who is definately against us instead of a rino that might be on our side. Would be nice to have a perfect candidate, but in all of history only one perfect human has ever existed.
