Anti-Gunners Ignore Gun Owners, Push Gun Bans
Dear friend,
A week ago, hundreds of gun owners and Second Amendment supporters flooded Richmond to stand for their rights at the Virginia Citizens Defense League’s Lobby Day.
To all the patriots who drove hours from around the Commonwealth and around the country to attend, thank you.
In addition to engaging with their political representatives, gun owners also heard from high profile speakers such as GOA’s Erich Pratt, Dan Wos, and pro-gun Delegate Nick Freitas.
In fact, one lone gun control supporter heckled Jared of Guns and Gadgets when he was speaking. You can watch that interaction here, as well as all the speeches here.
GOA also appeared in media and radio interviews from Lobby Day, and you can view some of them here.
However, despite this strong showing from gun owners, legislators in Richmond appear to be hard of hearing.
Just a few days later, on Thursday and Friday, the Democrat-controlled House Public Safety committee passed a slew of gun control bills, including a so-called “assault weapons” ban.
The committee passed:
• HB 2: bans AR-15 and magazines over 10
