Of those, the "Red Flag" thing is the most egregious and obvious infringement. Due Process is a cornerstone of our legal system and these laws purposefully (and maliciously, IMO) turn that on its head.Several bills are still working their way thru Virginia legislature. They are facing Universal Background Check, a limit to purchasing one firearm per month, and a Red Flag law.
Put on a shelf in hopes the White House flips.
Gone but not forgotten.
Pretty overwhelming vote (5-10) to delay this thing... what are they waiting for?
My best guess is self-preservation. Their fear over losing their seats and thus, their majority has caused them to put this off in hopes that they can repair the damage they've done before the election(s)... bury everybody in bullsh*t for the next 9 mos and moderate their tone in the hope of maintaining/consolidating power and start "fresh" next session.
I would personally counsel that any congresscritter who EVER spoke in favor of, and didn't actively fight against this bill be voted out regardless of how they voted in committee. They are cowards and fools and have now gone against their own "beliefs", such as they are, to try to save themselves.
That, of course, is just my opinion.
Not gonna do em any good at the state level unless they consider a party flip as "momentum". Even if DJT is sent packing (doubtful) the POTUS has little to no effect on legislation regardless of their campaign bluster.Put on a shelf in hopes the White House flips.
