    Talking VA Anti-Gun Governor Allows Felons To Possess Firearms

    It seems that Gov. McAuliffe, in his zeal to put more restrictions on law-abiding Virginians, signed an EO that will , inadvertently, allow convicted felons to have their 2nd Amendment rights back. When questioned on this, the Gov. refused to change the EO.

    Maybe we can get lucky and Obama will write an EO that would allow people to own new machine guns....

    I love how Leftist politicians, who know nothing about firearms or the law, create loopholes that go against their Communist goals, then refuse to back down on it....

    It was probably on purpose in order to appease a certain Democratic voter base, and to help arm their thuggish friends and allies.

    I don't think Governor McAuliffe was thinking that far ahead. He wanted to make sure Clinton would take Virginia and didn't forsee that this would allow felons to regain their Second Amendment rights as well. I am sure that if he could find a way to prevent the felons from getting their SA rights back while allowing them to still vote he would change his executive order tonight. He doesn't want law abiding citizens to own firearms why would he want felons to own them?
