Give up my guns?

    I'm amazed at what is going on. Virginia is threatening to actually track down gun owners and charge them with a felony if they don't register their guns. We're talking about long rifles that were not previously required to be registered.

    It will have to work its way to the Supreme Court probably but I think most of this is going to be ruled unconstitutional. Its amazing to me that it is happening in Virginia because Virginia is considered to be the most reasonable compared to Maryland and DC so far as taxation and ridiculous vehicle laws etc. If you had to work in DC the smart tip was to live in Virginia. Maybe that is not true anymore.

    I never lived there, I lived in Chevy Chase inside the beltway when I had a job in DC. The BS in Maryland is epic. Had I stayed there I would have moved out to Virginia, at least the Virginia side of the river.

    I cringe whenever a news article begins "A Florida man..." but this was a good one. Had the man not had a firearm for protection, he and his wife would likely be dead. Just another example.

    Florida man shoots, kills home intruder who was attacking his wife, police say

    A Florida man in his 70s fatally shot a home intruder who busted through the glass front door and began attacking his wife on Tuesday, investigators said.

    Deputies arrived at the Panama City home around 6:05 a.m. and found 31-year-old Nathan Jerrell Edwards laying on the floor dead and a handgun on the counter, the Bay County Sheriff’s Office said.

    “The husband stated he felt he could not physically stop the intruder, so he went upstairs to get his firearm,” the sheriff’s office said. “He shot the firearm multiple times, ending the threat.”

    The husband, whom deputies did not name, said he was standing outside when Edwards walked up to his driveway and approached him in a threatening manner. Witnesses told deputies that Edwards was “acting erratically,” screaming and swearing.

    He went into his home through the garage to get away from Edwards, according to deputies, but Edwards followed and pounded on the door to the house. He shattered the large glass panel in the front door and entered the house.

    Edwards then knocked the man’s wife to the floor, got on top of her and was beating her, the husband told deputies. The husband said he shot Edwards, who was pronounced dead at the scene.

    The man’s wife was treated at a local hospital for her injuries.

    Edwards, who was from Georgia, was staying nearby in a short-term rental residence.

  9. Did anyone witness the rampant violence, theft, robbery, and destruction this past month?
    If so, you understand why we need AR15's.
    If anyone tries to hurt my family, my property, or myself, i will defend myself with a force to be reckoned with. Any violent black lives matter terrorists try to hurt my family or myself, they will be shot between the eyes and hung outside my neighborhood with a sign attached to their forehead that reads:" Dont blame whitey"
