Don't forget that the first thing this new leftist congress passed was letting violent criminals out of jail early.  Makes sense the second thing was trying to take guns out of the hands of law abiding people.  To think we has a Republican supermajority less than 10 years ago...

Virginia is so much more than some faggot carpet baggers bankrolled by dirty money. And we keep proving it to the nation.

To everyone who isn't a Virginian: if they aren't successful when the seat of a corrupt federal government borders us, that is proof YOU can win as well.

Thank you fren. We believed in Jeffersonian republicanism so much, we were happy to let you find your own way. We are still friends today.

Virginia believed West Virginia had a right to become its own state, which is why we never have and never will have quarrel. That's a very important part of American History that's never taught.

There is indeed much work to do.

A strong body makes the mind strong. As to the species of exercise, I advise the gun. While this gives a moderate exercise to the body, it gives boldness, enterprise, and independence to the mind. Games played with the ball, and others of that nature, are too violent for the body, and stamp no character on the mind. Let your gun therefore be the constant companion of your walks.

- Jefferson

This is no time for ceremony. The question before the House is one of awful moment to this country. For my own part, I consider it as nothing less than a question of freedom or slavery; and in proportion to the magnitude of the subject ought to be the freedom of the debate. It is only in this way that we can hope to arrive at truth, and fulfil the great responsibility which we hold to God and our country. Should I keep back my opinions at such a time, through fear of giving offence, I should consider myself as guilty of treason towards my country, and of an act of disloyalty toward the majesty of heaven, which I revere above all earthly kings.

Mr. President, it is natural to man to indulge in the illusions of hope. We are apt to shut our eyes against a painful truth, and listen to the song of that siren till she transforms us into beasts. Is this the part of wise men, engaged in a great and arduous struggle for liberty? Are we disposed to be of the number of those who, having eyes, see not, and, having ears, hear not, the things which so nearly concern their temporal salvation? For my part, whatever anguish of spirit it may cost, I am willing to know the whole truth; to know the worst, and to provide for it.

Good job VA!.  

I've stood with the Virginians before, and I do think it helped turn out the vote for Youngkin ~2 years later.

I always, as a non-resident, email the relevant politician and tell them that I'm looking for a retirement home and that passing bill X will completely ensure I don't move there with lots of money, and I'll avoid the state with tourist dollars.  It's a pretty well written email template, and it costs me 30s to customize it for each case.

It is the same as a veto, except you're not going on record vetoing it. You just took no action to sign it into law so therefore it is not law.

Where are you seeing these veto's? I'm not finding much other than the two he directly vetoed.

Everything I've read also says they become law if he doesn't take action and specifically veto them. Is this not the case? I'm slightly confused as there seems to be a lot of misinformation out there on the various sites.

Oddly enough we have the Karens in NoVA to thank for Youngkin as they were the ones who rose up to oppose that shitbag Terry McCauliff.

Unfortunately they won't do it again so next time we need to do it for ourselves.

Don't some of these still need to be vetoed?

VA doesn't have pocket vetos, it would go into law if no action is taken.

I think some Bills still have yet to be sent to the Governor, e.g. HB2. So those will need to be vetoed once they are communicated to the Governor. This first batch of vetos goes to the legislation that was fast tracked and sent to his desk more than 7 days before the end of the legislative session and had to be vetoed faster.

The other bills won't have to be vetoed until 30 days after the GA adjourns, which is like April 7th?

Maybe I am wrong on that...

Good deal.  If he had some spine, he would gave vetoed all of them and explained how they were unconstitutional and/or violated USSC precedent one by one, in great detail, in order to make the morons that put them forth look like the morons they are

No, you’re not wrong…I didn’t want to rain on his parade


Only 3 of the bills were fast tracked to him for his signature before the end of this session…..HB46 and SB47….he vetoed both of those…and HB498…that he modified the wording on and sent back….no one has seen the modification yet…it involved notification to schools if minors got access to loaded guns;;;have to see if this is a win, loss, or draw…the two vetos are wins

The rest will now go to his desk when the rest of the legislative agenda goes and will need to be signed or vetoed like everything else

In other words, the fight is nowhere near over

Looks like the text of the modification to HB498 is up:
HB498 Governor's Amendment

Has to be reenacted next year. And goes to creating list to inform on sexually explicit material, drugs, and other topics.

Seems like a poison pill to me.

Indeed. The democrat-communists are playing the long game. They aren't going to stop until private gun ownership is outlawed. Their extremely unpleasant agenda requires a completely disarmed population who won't be able to resist the rather nasty things that are coming.

Americans are going to have to figure out a long-term solution for dealing with the communists who are going to keep chipping away at every right and freedom we have until we've lost them all. I don't know what that solution is, but one had better be found.

No worries!

Just don't want people to stop writing the Governor yet. Still need to keep the pressure on him to veto the rest of these!

I'm sure those who plan to disarm everyone and stick the Americans in gulags, or worse, hope that everyone will remain disorganized, unmotivated, lazy, while bickering with one another instead of recognizing who the real enemy is. So far, they seem to be getting their wish. If that doesn't change, the Americans will have plenty of time to think about it while they waste away in the camps. It doesn't seem like most people think it can happen here. Just a few decades ago, no one dreamed it could happen in Venezuela. One of the most prosperous nations in the area, they even had a constitution and gun rights. They, like us, decided to vote for the utopian dream of socialism. Now, they have gulags, government death squads, runaway inflation, famine, and people fleeing the country by any means available. You bet your ass it can happen here. We know this because we're watching it happen in real time.
