The GOOD thing is that Virginia Governors can only serve one term, so we won't be stuck with him for another 4+ years.

The BAD thing is that Virginia Governors can only serve one term, so they don't have to worry about anything since they don't have to worry about running for re-election.

I still love Virginia, so watch whatcha say about my state! D=<

No, they can't succeed themselves. They can have as many terms as they are elected for.
 
377 rounds of ammo prompts a cache law proposal?

The large WWB boxes have 100 rounds in them.... so that's less than 4 of them.... and remember that some of the ammo was .22lr.... which comes in boxes of 550!

I have well over 10 times 377 rounds of ammo! To date, no killing sprees here... and I don't really see any in my future.

And since when are college presidents experts on the subject of concealed carry? How many of them even have CWP's?
 
I want limits on Tyranny Puppets breathing my air.

Gun control doesn't work.
Getting rid of Tyranny Puppets does.

DO NOT EVER TRUST A Democrat CONCERNNG THE 2nd MEMDMENT UNLESS IT IS AN ABSOLUTE WRITTEN DOWN> NOT JUST VERBAL. ANYONE WHO SPEAKS OF HUNTING IN THE SAME BREATH WITHE THE 2nd IS A LIAR. How many times do we have to learn this crap.:(
 
THIS in the main reason I will NEVER vote for a Democrat. Sorry but they are liars.
 
Matt87, I am so sorry you have to live in that condition under oppressive and useless law. Sometimes if i don't plan too well and shoot too much I get down to several bricks of .22 in one of my range rental lockers. Now back home I have several bricks, packs, ammo cans, and/or 5 gallon buckets of pretty much everything. To the contrary of my governer no man should ever be whittled down to a small 300+ round cache, whe owe it to ourselves to maintain a proper stockpile. :D

One time I was wheeling a cart around Wal-mart at 3am on a Saturday morning in Tim Kaine's fair city of Hampton. The score was 150 rounds of buck, 200 rounds of .223, 400rds of 9mm and one very perplexed looking off-duty city cop working moonlight security at the front door. I guess by Timmy's standards they should come get me with a net. While that ammo wasn't enough to go to the Waffle house down the street it did get me through the 3-gun match the next day.
 
The size of the lie is a definite factor in causing it to be believed, for the vast masses of a nation are in the depths of their hearts more easily deceived than they are consciously and intentionally bad. The primitive simplicity of their minds renders them a more easy prey to a big lie than a small one, for they themselves often tell little lies, but would be ashamed to tell big lies. - Adolf Hitler
 
I wonder just who's butt he is trying to kiss now. He showed some signs of being a stand-up guy, and now this.

377 rounds is not a stockpile, it's not even enough for a good trip to the range with my family.

We'll see if I get any response.
Will post any I get.

Gov. Kaine,

As a productive citizen of the United States of America and of the Commonwealth of Virginia I am deeply concerned with regards to both the attitude and lack of knowledge that you appear to be displaying regarding the citizens of the Commonwealth in general and those who own firearms in specific.

While I understand that you may have been misquoted, and am willing to give the benefit of the doubt, I am still troubled by a recent article by the Washington DC Examiner ( http://tinyurl.com/2cvczn ) where there are several examples that seem to demonstrate a deep distrust of the general populace of the commonwealth following to the actions of one madman. There are also other comments that display a distressing ignorance with regards to the topics of firearm ownership, firearm use, and firearms responsibility.

Mr. Kaine, generalization in policy making is dangerous. While you are seeking ways to isolate the evil people and hinder their malicious plans it is important that you don’t “throw the baby out with the bathwater” by punishing everyone else.

It is also important that you don’t suddenly, with a stroke of the “policy pen”, accidentally turn the decent and law-abiding citizens of the Commonwealth into criminals simply due to ignorance about the topic in question.

Mr. Kaine, I’m no political bigwig, no mover and shaker, I am simply a citizen who is witnessing the makings of a terrible train-wreck of a situation and am hoping that maybe I can do something to help prevent it.

To this end I am willing to re-arrange my own schedule, take time from work, in short to do whatever is necessary in order to meet with you if you would be willing to discuss some of these topics.

Mr. Kaine. I beg you to take me up on this offer, or if you do not wish to work with me then I make an equally heartfelt plea that you contact a local shooting organization and find someone to have a conversation with. You are responsible for directing policy for the Commonwealth and as such it is your duty to understand -all aspects- of the topics in question before making any decisions.

Sincerely

Many years ago when I worked at VMI there was no prohibition against faculty carry although cadets were required to keep POWs stored in the arms room and of course the cadet M14 has the firing pin removed.They certainly do not lack for readily available weapons and ammunition on campus in the several storage facilities.
 
Well, what do we all expect from a non-gun guy? They always seem to come up with some "feel good" irrationally bureaucratic laws and proceedures just to wear gun owners down and hope we give up our favorite past-time. Of course, to the rest of the non-gunners, any controls probably sound great.

By the way, I didn't notice any progun representatives like VCDL on the VT review panel, nor being asked to testify to the panel.:)

A representative of the VCDL addressed the VT review panel during the public comment section of their first meeting here in Richmond a couple of weeks ago. Unfortunately, his statement was short, weak and poorly delivered (the guy appeared to be very nervous and sorta stammered through his words). The anti-gun lady who followed delivered a powerful, compassionate speech that rendered the comments of the VCDL guy completely forgotten by everyone in the room.
