Governor Ralph Northam (D) signed legislation Saturday creating universal background checks in Virginia and limiting law-abiding Virginians to one handgun purchase per month.
Northam’s office announced his signature on Senate Bill 70 / House Bill 2, creating the universal checks and thereby outlawing private gun sales.
He signed Senate Bill 69 / House Bill 812 resurrecting Virginia’s “one-handgun-a-month rule to help curtail stockpiling of firearms and trafficking.â€
Northam used a tweet to refer to these gun controls as “commonsense gun safety measures,†but he did not mention that they would not have prevented the May 31, 2019 Virginia Beach shooting that he used as an impetus for gun control.
He also signed other controls into law, including requirements that gun owners report stolen firearms within 48 hours of the theft or face “civil penalty.†This puts the onus for a gun theft on the gun owner, rather than the individual who stole the firearm.
Democrats won control of Virginia’s legislature in November 2019 and, just days after their victory, Northam made clear there would be a war on guns. That war originally included all-out bans on certain categories of firearms, on ammunition magazines holding more than ten rounds, and on firearm suppressors. However, Democrats reformulated their push after facing widespread public backlash over their gun control agenda.

Too bad there is no opposition party in Virginia.

Easier to pass stuff like this when no one is allowed to protest in the streets, now, ain't it?
The next run should be on tar, feathers, and rope.

Well 23 sets ran unopposed, sadly the Pubbies woke to late.
I really thought he got 5the message on Lobby day but he does not give a shit since he can't run again for four more years.
Quite a few of the Reps and some members of the senate heard it loud and clear, but were out numbered.

Just like Jim Morrison wrote years ago in "Five to One":
"They got the guns, but we got the numbers..."
Do you see that changing in the future...?

I really do. On Lobby day the streets were packed. There are on Easter Sunday he declared that any open business must allow trannies to use the bathroom of the gender they identify as. Two of my Gay friends said this was the last straw for them, they will be voting straight Republican from now on.

That has and is happening from the federal level down to the city level and in some cases there's not a (D) like you'd expect beside the politicians name.

Guess who is planning to run for President as a Dim in 2024.

Virginia being the Mother of Presidents, I had expected Mark Warner to throw his hat in the ring years ago. But black-face Northam doesn't stand a chance. (And Tim Kaine makes Joe Biden look like Albert Einstein).

Hard to believe the state of Washington, Madison, Jefferson, et al., now produces idiots like Northam, Warner and Kaine. A sad thing.

If you want to still be able to protest in the streets elect conservative leadership in your state.
There are protests outside the Ohio Statehouse on a regular basis these days.

@Hoodat
Warner was too moderate to even be considered for the top spot.
But black-face Northam doesn't stand a chance.
(
I strongly disagree. I see him as the front runner in 2024 amongst the Dims. His record on restricting rights and confiscating/restricting the rights to own guns alone will make him a Dim super star.
Granted,his Va accent is going to hurt him in the North and the West,but no so much the party "muscle" can't slap the voters back into place.
And Tim Kaine makes Joe Biden look like Albert Einstein).
Kaine is my worst fear. He would have the same appeal as Northam,but no southern accent.

Kaine couldn't spell C-A-T if you spotted him the C and the A. He challenges Patty Murray for the title of Dumbest US Senator.

Perfect, as long as he can read the script and follow instructions.
The Democrats' leaders are off the radar, they just need an acceptable sockpuppet.
-
Well, looks like ol' Virginny is a blue state now.
Probably no goin' back. I'd like to see that prediction proven wrong.
Best to head west or south...!

Since when has even having the IQ of a stray cat been a basic requirement to be a Dim president?
Granted,as evil as he is,Bubba was and is pretty damn sharp,but he was an exception.

He wasn't sharp enough to keep it out of the papers, even if they did good damage control.
I would have loved to be able to view the rants in the West Wing over that mess (from a safe distance on an untraceable feed). I bet they were epic. She's the evil genius of the two, and rode his coattails to the threshold of real power.

Not a chance. He played her like a yo-yo on a string.

Yes and no.
She was the one with the 900+ FBI raw data files on ranking and up and coming Republicans, dumping the dirt to the DNC on a LAN when most people didn't know what a LAN was.
She did damage control for him to keep from losing her job, eff him.
She stuck to him through the scandals to be near the halls of power to retain influence and to have the position of "co-president" to use as a springboard. She could be just another divorcee any time, but FLOTUS had juice, and she played it up in the media every bit as well or better than the Wookie, because she didn't have the 'first black first lady' chops to leverage.
She cut a deal with Obama to drop out to be Secretary of State (far better money through controlling international deals, gets her 'foreign policy' ticket punched, and less supervision by the press), all in preparation for a run at the brass ring.
Her foundation is brimming with 'speaking fees' that paid more for an hour or two than most in this country make in a year, and those are just to cover for more circumspect bribes and siphoned off 'relief' funds.
She ain't no slouch, and is not to be underestimated, imho.

And without Bubba as the front man,she would be a co-owner of a strip mall law office named something like "Two Bitches wat bees lawyers."

Maybe so, but someone had to keep him out of the blow long enough to be presentable in front of the cameras.

Bubba obviously married her so he would have someone to attract anything negative directed towards him. He wanted to run for state and national political offices,and clearly NEEDED a wife to even be considered. He knew her,knew how mad for power she was,and knew she was the "perfect political wife" for him. She was his shield against bimbo's wanting to marry a powerful man,as well as his political foil. Anytime he was caught with his hand in the "cookie jar" he could just blush a little,smile a little,and say something like "Hey,how bout that Hillary?",and that shrill bitch would step forward ready to fight,and take all the negative attention away from him.
She was also the perfect "bag man" for him.

They each served a purpose to each other. He was slick but not a serious political mind...she's homely looking but a razor sharp political mind and ruthless to boot.
And thankfully they only had sex with each other once.

Well, I don't know about the consummating, but someone should ask Webb Hubbel's daughter about that.

Yet some people still want to claim that Bubba doesn't have any standards.

What about the IQ of the typical Democrats voter? You see, it's not that the Democrat politician's IQ is low, it's that they better understand the IQ of their voters than Republicans do.

I've heard Warner's got some skeletons in the closet - how he made his fortune with inside info on cell phone licenses, some philandering too. All kept hush-hush locally, but if he ran for President people would be digging where he doesn't want them to.

Oh, he has standards, they just ain't likely quite the same as mine.
But it is proof of the concept that almost any guy can find companionship if he lowers his standards enough.

@dfwgator
I came to the conclusion years ago that there should be TWO IQ standards.
One to represent the actual intellectual ability of the person being tested,and the other to determine their emotional level.
IE: Rocket Scientists versus Drama Queens.
