ZitatBesides the explosion of Second Amendment sanctuaries outside Northern Virginia billboards are popping up across the Old Dominion, alerting residents to a radical anti-gun agenda soon-to-be-implemented by Democrats who now enjoy a majority at all levels of power in Richmond.
The plan, spearheaded by Governor (and alleged blackface enthusiast) Ralph Northam (D), has the backing of the accused serial sexual harasser and liberal White House hopeful Michael Bloomberg.
The Daily Wire's Ryan Saavedra reports:
"A source sent The Daily Wire a photograph of one of the billboards on Thursday night, which was paid for by the National Rifle Association (NRA) Institute For Legislative Action, and states:"
THE NORTHAM / BLOOMBERG GUN CONFISCATION PLAN STARTS JAN. 8 2 WEEKS
If Northam & crew actually implement this seizure policy, things could get quite interesting. Of one thing you can be sure: you won't see Northam or Bloomberg leading the confiscation raids.

Virginia Governor Northam Increases Corrections Budget In Anticipation Of Jailing Gun Owners December 24, 2019 10:30 AM ET
As if Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam’s wholesale attack on law-abiding gun owners wasn’t enough, the disgraced public official and his Michael Bloomberg-bought allies in the General Assembly now want the state’s hard-working taxpayers to foot the bill for their unconstitutional schemes. The budget bill (HB30) includes an appropriation of a quarter million dollars to carry out a host of gun control measures that Northam and his anti-gun allies hope to enact.
The $250,000 is appropriated to the Corrections Special Reserve Fund in order to provide for the “increase in the operating cost of adult correctional facilities resulting from the enactment” of Northam’s gun control measures. Among the enumerated laws that this allocation is meant to fund is a ban on commonly-owned semi-automatic firearms, the criminalization of private firearms transfers, and gun confiscation orders issued without due process.

Very interesting indeed. Since 90% of the counties in Virginia have declared themselves gun sanctuaries, and this move will not be as easily hid from the general public as the BLM raid on the Bundy Ranch.
It would seem that gun owners could unite and take a cue from the Left's [the treatment of Donald Trump] and use the courts to stop this over reach by any state official.

Virginia gun store says firearms, ammunition, and magazines flying off shelves with upswing in cash purchases by Kerry Picket January 02, 2020 09:34 AM
With Virginia Democrats taking over all branches of state government, a firearms store owner in the state says sales of guns, magazines, and ammunition are up 200%, and more of his customers are paying in cash.
“This is the largest Christmas and November, December that we've had, basically, since Trump has come on board. The only other person that was a better salesman right now is when we had President Obama,” said Jerry Rapp, owner of SpecDive Tactical, in Alexandria, comparing the administrations of President Trump and his White House predecessor, Barack Obama.
“Every time [Obama] turned around he was going to ban something or make something illegal. But even that isn't even close to the amount of sales we're selling right now of magazines, of guns, of every kind of gun from pistol, rifle, shotguns, to AR platforms" and ammunition, Rapp told the Washington Examiner. "We can't keep it in stock.”
Since Democrats took the majorities of both chambers in Virginia’s state legislature after big wins in the November elections, gun control proposals that include bans on “assault-style” weapons, restrictions on magazine capacity, universal background checks, and restrictions to one gun a month purchases have all been brought forth.
Same at the federal level, with House Democrats entering their second year in the majority.
Virginia freshman Democratic Rep. Jennifer Wexton, who was previously a state senator, has proposed legislation in Congress to use credit card data to track gun purchases. The bill faces long odds on Capitol Hill. News about her idea has made it to Virginia firearms customers.
Rapp said his clients are increasingly concerned about privacy issues. Since the November elections, they've been purchasing with cash rather than credit cards.
Rapp, whose business includes gun safety training, says that some of the proposed legislation also affects his course instruction.
"From a gun place, the biggest [proposed legislation] that affects me right now, because we're a training company that sells guns, is if you are a trainer or if you train your son or daughter, that you could become a felon, but as a training place, we do safety," Rapp said. "We do training both from a basic pistol, rifle, shotgun to advanced combat shootings and tactical shootings for the military, law enforcement, three-letter agencies."
The National Rifle Association's lobbying arm released a statement Thursday responding to the upcoming gun control legislation fight in Richmond.
“Anti-gun billionaires who invested millions in the 2019 Virginia elections expect a return on that investment. While we mobilize our members and supporters to defeat Governor Northam’s political gun grab," said D.J. Spiker, NRA Institute for Legislative Action Virginia state director. "The NRA remains committed to working with those members of the General Assembly who are focused on finding real solutions to violent crime in Virginia.”
