That better be one hell of a dental plan in VA.
Enforcement of that shit will cause bloodshed. |

Training classes alone aren't enough to make a felony, but I'd bet a training class plus a Boogaloo meme on your Twitter would be plenty for them to bring charges under this insanity. They know exactly what they are doing.

What in the exact fuck?!
Learning firearm proficiency is illegal? TRUMP needs to skull fuck these libs on Twitter. I sincere hope VA dems jumping the shark helps DJT get re-elected and RGB get replaced. |

It’s crazy, but practically unenforceable.
Each requires they prove “intent”. Intent “that such training will be employed for use in, or in furtherance of, a civil disorder.” Intent to “intimidate” Good luck proving either one of those things. |

when we started Appleseed in 2006, we had cops sniffing around at the Ramseur range Appleseeds. They were easy to spot: plainclothes, buzzcuts, black Ray-Bans, policed mooostaches, stern faces, kept asking about "we're here for the militia training. Tell us what you're teaching here. How are we gonna overthrow the government?" Never brought their rifles to the line, just observed and left after a few hours. But when asked, they denied they were cops.

So no more peaceable assembly, no more well regulated! No training Others to be safer, you know well it’s for the safety of the children! No more protests with evil scary guns and no more group range days! Hell no more Gunsmithing schools or even apprenticeships!

I think some might need to read it a bit more carefully before reacting at Bugalú level.

Just donated to VCDL. Thanks for keeping us informed on here. Hope you guys get all this stopped.

Incredibly unconstitutional. It'll only be enforced and destroy lives for 15 years before SCOTUS can hopefully overturn it.
I think leftists are realizing that they can just flood the system with unconstitutional laws. They can pass them 100 times faster than the courts can overturn them. |

Jesus that law would make the required CCW class in IL illegal.....I'm guessing the assholes in Chicago are taking notes

Quoted: intent will be inferred. And it won't stop the arrests: "you might beat the rap, but you won't beat the ride!" View Quote It’s still in the state to PROVE that intent beyond a reasonable doubt. That’s basicallg impossible, outside of something that blatantly states it |

Quoted: I predict Virginia State Police raiding the first Appleseed after this law is passed. View Quote Until we see a few Boy Scouts and local community members gunned down on CNN by jackboots, no one is going to take it seriously. Until local LEOs refusing to enforce this communist horse shit are murdered by jackboots from NOVA, no ones going to care. No one will care until it touches their lives personally. |

Didn't the Brits that marched on Lexington and Concord try to enforce the same kind of law?
Democrats are as bad (or worse) than the British that tried to oppress the Colonists. |

Knowledge of this proposed bill needs to be spread nationwide.

Somebody fell out of the dumb tree and hit every branch on the way down. View Quote Article I. Bill of Rights Section 13. Militia; standing armies; military subordinate to civil power That a well regulated militia, composed of the body of the people, trained to arms, is the proper, natural, and safe defense of a free state, therefore, the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed...... The dems believe if they can pull the teeth of those who they see as trainers of militia it will somehow negate Article 1 #13 and that somehow the state controls the formation of citizen (the people) militias. |

The bill's chief patron; Senator L. Louise Lucas Does someone who's represented by her want to contact her office and explain that poor, Black and Latino communities would be disparately impacted? Gotta use the language they know. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:
The bill's chief patron; Senator L. Louise Lucas Does someone who's represented by her want to contact her office and explain that poor, Black and Latino communities would be disparately impacted? Gotta use the language they know. the ironic thing here is this woman saw first hand what Democrats under Byrd were pulling on Virginians during massive resistance. Here she is, with her wallet padded, on the other side of the fence ready to stomp on the constitution to keep the little people in their place. It would be a shame if her many businesses were picketed. Born Lillie Louise Boone Lucas on January 20, 1944 in Portsmouth, Virginia, Lucas attended the Portsmouth Public School System, including during their shutdown during Massive Resistance... She is President/CEO of Lucas Lodge, Lucas Transportation, Portsmouth Day Support Program and Southside Direct Care Provider organizations operating in The Lucas Professional Center located in Portsmouth. Economic development is Senator Lucas’ passion and she remains unwavering in her determination to build a hotel. ...Senator Lucas is the mother of two daughters, Lisa L.

Quoted: That will all be after the arrest, after you mortgage your house to pay a lawyer... The state has endless funding and lots of lawyers on staff. View Quote “The state shall be liable for all attorney’s fees, court costs, and all other legal costs associated with any arrest, trial, or civil proceeding in which the state is a party and the state does not prevail, does not bring a matter to trial, or if the case is dismissed with or without prejudice.” |

The first two clauses of this are already on the books in VA.
The only new thing is the prohibition on parading with intent to intimidate. This is an open carry ban. If someone feels scared when they see a gun they'll call you in for a felony stop.

Yeah, but if CCW is legal, and if training is still required, then it is contradictory to break a law to comply with the law.
