Looking at Kirk Cox's voting record he was 100% pro-gun in 2013 & 2014
2015 his record drops to 91% pro-gun 2016 95% 2017 back to 100% 2018 then new low of 88% 2019 88% 2020 back to 100% General Assembly Voting Records |

Kirk Cox appears to be following Karl Rove's advice:

Not defending Kirk Cox in the least here but those guys with the fruitcake flag and other strange looking flags are something to watch.
I've seen them and heard them and it's clear to me that they are not coming from the same motives as the other armed people that were there. Nothing about them convinces me they exist to defend Constitutional rights. |

Quick question... did you guys read the news article? Maybe I missed something but this is where Kirk referred to the protestors as provocateurs...
Mike Dunn, of the Boogaloo Boys, said he was proudly breaking the law by openly carrying his gun. Donning military fatigues, a helmet and goggles, Dunn, 20, said he would “defend himself” if police tried to arrest him. “They can try,” he said to a gaggle of reporters. “We established a precedent already where they didn’t. So they’re going to have a hard time serving us now.” The Boogaloo Boys, an extremist group whose members have become known for wearing Hawaiian shirts to events, believe a second American civil war is coming, The Wall Street Journal reported. Later, Dunn shouted through a megaphone for several minutes about a “revolt” and people’s rights being violated. He also tossed two posted signs restricting guns in the area over a barricade. It was not clear who had torn them down. In a tweet, Del. Kirk Cox, R-Colonial Heights, said those “people aren’t protestors, they’re provocateurs.” Perhaps someone could correct me, but Kirk is 100% right here. These people didn't represent what Lobby Day was about.... following the law and not trying to break it and telling our reps that we don't want more gun control as they won't do anything to deter criminals from behaving like criminals. I'll give you this... this article sounds very anti-gun. Personally I wouldn't go to Virginia Pilot and make any sort of quote as it'll no doubt be taken out of context. Perhaps that was the case here. |

Also as a side note, I hope you guys got a slice of pizza...
From a nearby pizza shop, owner Jo-Jo Armetta lamented this year’s small Lobby Day crowd, blaming the coronavirus pandemic and “what happened at the (U.S.) Capitol.” Last year, by contrast, business was “off the charts.” He said many gun-toting protesters weren’t coming into his namesake restaurant as they did last year, and he wondered if signs banning guns around the capitol were dissuading them from doing so. “I need business,” Armetta said. “I look forward to this all year.” |

To be left the F alone and let us do what we want. Just because you don’t agree 100% on every single subject as someone else doesn’t mean we can’t stand together on the issue of gun rights and self defense. Quit being divisive, those comments don’t help our cause. As far as my opinion on Dunn goes, *I* personally would not make myself as much of a spectacle as he does, but we need that. We need someone stirring up crap like he does. He beat an open carry charge in Newport News, and would have beat the charge in Richmond too. He is showing how these charges are unenforceable and unconstitutional BS. My thoughts on Kirk Cox, his tweet was his true thoughts and it got exposed before his advisors (the RPV) could reel it in. |

He’s not going to win the governors election anyway. McAullifie is.
We need to focus on the general assembly. |

He had nothing but good things to say about the pro-2A people. The ones who graffitied his building and trashed downtown Richmond during the BLM "protests"...not so much. 2020 Lobby Day was the most business he's ever done in a single day. |
