Sad News from Virginia

Well it didn’t take them long after being sworn in, the tyrannical Democrat’s in Virginia’s House of Delegates passed legislation Tuesday to ban suppressors, “high capacity” magazines, and “assault weapons.” This is really bad news. The democrat’s amended the bill to grandfather in those people that already own AR-15s, AK-47s, and similar rifles. However, all high capacity magazines over 12 rounds must be surrendered.

The NRA gave a statement regarding HB 961:

HB961 will turn law-abiding Virginians into criminals overnight. Under this bill, anyone who owns a standard capacity magazine must submit to mandatory confiscation or face one year in jail for each magazine they own. No law-abiding Virginian will be able to buy an AR-15 – America’s most popular all-purpose sporting rifle. After receiving money from Michael Bloomberg, House leaders have their hands out for more and clearly have no regard for the will of their constituents.

This situation is going to continue. At some point it will come to a head when compliance is poor and they then try and enforce their tyrannical laws.
