Y'all should be more worried about the dems that passed this bill instead of going off target.

If we took a poll by PMs I could probably get up to 5. Maybe 6.

Are we counting deceased voters?

And illegal immigrants.

Counting dead voters and illegals may make the numbers climb to "several".

LOL

Or seven

Now that is just a blatant exaggeration Sir!

All of those Democrat Legislators, Delegates and Senators, will be up for re-election next year. Many of them will be voted out of office over this.
it is clearly a bridge too far for voters in many districts who will vote accordingly and run them out of office. Hopefully a Republican majority will result and the madness of this Governor will be stymied.

52 caril I hope your right. But considering they got in office in the first place shows how dumb or much the voters in the state care. Could be they know the win is in and voting day is just a show for the masses to give them the illusion thay have a say in the system and stay compliant.

Im sad to see anything like this get out of committee.

Why did it pass in the first place?
Because 99% of the people today don't pay attention to what's going on, outside of their little care free world!

Not only out of Committee, all it needs is the head squirrel to sign it if she hasn't already.

Protest Against gun ban that they exempted themselves (the general assembly) from, outside capital building...handing out free mags,

My hope is they realize, just before the slack is taken out of the hemp, it was not taking the gun away but the Right, that placed them on that end.

We need to carry more now than ever. JMO

Virginia is on the verge of a major shift in gun laws, and if you’re a gun owner, it’s not a small one.
Right now, 10 gun control bills are sitting on Gov. Abigail Spanberger’s desk, and she has until April 13 to sign them, veto them, or let them become law by default. Based on the current political landscape, most expect these bills to be signed.
If that happens, Virginia will go from relatively gun-friendly to one of the more restrictive states in the country.
Here’s what’s in the stack:
• Semi-auto firearm and magazine bans (SB749/HB217)
Targets many commonly owned rifles, pistols, and shotguns, bans magazines over 15 rounds, and restricts possession for adults under 21.
• Public carry restrictions (SB727/HB1524)
Criminalizes carrying many common firearms in public places—even for otherwise lawful gun owners. Violations can mean up to 12 months in jail.
• Under-21 possession ban (SB643/HB1525)
Would apply even to young adults who already legally own firearms.
• Reciprocity changes (SB115)
Virginia could stop recognizing out-of-state carry permits, which would likely trigger other states to stop recognizing Virginia permits in return.
• Expanded training mandates (HB 916)
Adds new requirements for concealed carry classes and removes NRA and USCCA courses from qualifying.
• Firearm storage and vehicle laws (SB496/HB110)
Creates new rules for how firearms can be stored in vehicles.
• “Ghost gun” ban (SB323/HB40)
Makes possession of unserialized firearms a felony—punishable by up to 10 years.
• Gun industry liability laws (SB27/HB21)
Opens the door to lawsuits against manufacturers and retailers for how products are marketed and sold.
• Expanded “gun-free zones” (SB272/HB626 & SB173/HB229)
Applies to public buildings, campuses, and certain medical facilities.
These laws target law-abiding citizens and commonly owned firearms, while doing little to address criminal behavior.
These aren’t small tweaks. This is a system-level change:
• Who can own firearms
• What types are allowed
• Where you can carry
• Whether your permit is recognized
• How the industry itself is allowed to operate
For gun owners in Virginia, the next few weeks matter.
Because once these laws are signed, the fight doesn’t end; it moves to the courts.
