Opinion
Virginia – -(AmmoLand.com)- The 2019 Virginia General Assembly voting record on firearms bills has now been compiled and is available for viewing/downloading.
Not surprisingly (and sadly), the Republicans with the WORST voting record in the House of the Senate were much, much better than the BEST Democrat.
We are talking about a basic civil right – the right to defend your life, the lives of your family, and the lives of other innocents. BOTH parties should be fighting over who could best protect and fully restore such a sacred right. Instead one party wants to highly restrict it and the other is protecting the right, but not doing much to remove the restrictions that have been place on the RKBA over the last 100 or so years. Gun-control has its roots in racism. The Democrats should be running from it, not embracing it.

Virginia politics is a real problem. Look at the Gov. and Assistant Gov. just for starters. The dolts that work for the fed. Gov. are trying to turn Virginia into a swamp. Good luck draining that swamp, Virginia.
I really appreciate the information in this article as I am a Virginian and reside in a county bordering the capital city of Richmond. Also, I hope Candidate Tina Freitas will defeat Senator Hanger in Virginia’s 24th district. Come on Virginians, let’s get her in there.
McDaniel-ROMNEY should be fired and rode out of town on a rail. Why is she still there after losing the Congress?
