One thing is becoming more and more clear – the legislative and political arenas are now only part of the overall battle over our Second Amendment rights. While Second Amendment supporters have done well in those arenas, including making the Supreme Court reasonably pro-Second Amendment, the new arenas threaten to outflank the gains in the political and legislative arenas. |

Well, sometimes. Here is a light-hearted look at some of the boo-boos that have been made along the way. Others will undoubtedly occur to you. |

Fauquier County supervisors will consider a resolution that takes a tougher stand in support of gun ownership rights when they reconvene at 5 p.m. Monday, Dec. 23.
The resolution -- reworked since a Dec. 12 meeting that drew a crowd of 2,000 -- states that the board “reaffirms its oath of office to support and defend the United States and Virginia constitutions and stands as a constitutional county with the overwhelming number of Constitutional and sanctuary counties throughout the commonwealth of Virginia.” Those counties oppose legislation infringing upon the right to keep and bear arms. |

“Fact Checker Glenn Kessler plays no favorites,” noted SAF founder and Executive Vice President Alan M. Gottlieb, “and when he slaps Pelosi with four ‘Pinocchios’ for repeatedly using a canard, she’s got it coming.”
Pelosi has repeatedly claimed that 100 people die every day from “gun violence,” and asserted that 47 of them are children and teens. But the Washington Post did some math, noting that 60 percent of firearms-related deaths are suicides, and wrote “It seemed strange that so many children would be killing themselves with guns.” The newspaper checked data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and concluded Pelosi was way off base, yet she has repeated the false narrative. |

Sheriff Wayne Ivey of Brevard County, Florida, has a strong message to impart in what he calls a strategy for survival. In a video, he warned citizens, “This is war, and you’d better be prepared to wage war to protect you, your family, and those around you.” The police usually recommend calling 911 in an emergency rather than fighting. But not Ivey. He suggests people be prepared; anyone with a concealed carry permit, he says, should be armed at all times. |

County Mayor Joe Brooks will be drafting a letter requesting that the state legislators think twice before adopting any new laws that could infringe upon the citizens’ Constitutional right to “bear arms.”
The Claiborne Commission voted unanimously to adopt resolution 2019-092 during its regular monthly meeting on Dec. 16. As written, the resolution provides a “safe haven” by declaring Claiborne a “Second Amendment Sanctuary County.” |

What is especially disturbing to me is the fact that we can’t have a civil discussion about gun control. The reason we can’t have that discussion is that the NRA does not respect the right of Virginians to make their own decisions.
I pray that the two sides will sit down together and have a civil conversation (without input from outside forces like the NRA, which has a financial agenda that has nothing to do with the wishes of ordinary people) about what limitations, if any, they think are appropriate and beneficial for the people of this commonwealth as a whole. |
