Virgina ...Updated: Circuit court upholds one-gun-a-month law

[livingston]

Update: Thursday, 5:38 p.m. Judge Timothy K. Sanner in Goochland Circuit Court denied the gun lobby’s attempts to block Virginia’s one-handgun-a-month law from going into effect on July 1.

In the ruling, Sanner found that the gun lobby was unlikely to succeed in convincing the court that the law was unconstitutional.

“I am really pleased that the judge agreed with me today and rejected the gun lobby’s attempt to block the one-handgun-a-month law. Currently, Virginia is one of the easiest states in the country for gun traffickers to purchase large numbers of firearms to resell on the street, and we can’t allow that to continue,” Attorney General Mark Herring said. “Virginia had a one-handgun-a-month law in effect for nearly twenty years that was extremely successful in keeping firearms out of our communities and out of the hands of dangerous individuals.

Updated: Circuit court upholds one-gun-a-month law

Attorney General Mark Herring is defending two of Virginia’s gun violence prevention measures, the one-handgun-a-month law and extended background checks.

One gun for me, one for my wife, one for my son and one for my daughter. That's 48 per year. One for my son's girlfriend, that's 60. End run around your stupid law. We're all legal shooters too.

Can we at least start with one riot per month ?

Is this like mother earther Skretny where seven is arbitrary but ten is not? More stupidity from our rulers. If I was a cop I would put those circuit judges in a choke hold and explain the difference between a CITIZEN in a republic and a subject in a gulag.
