A gun rights activist protested an assault weapons ban bill over the weekend by showing up at the house of the Virginia lawmaker who proposed it.
Del. Mark Levine, a Democrat from Alexandria, said Brandon Howard, head of the Right to Bear Arms Virginia group and Hopewell GOP chairman, showed up to his home with a “military-style semi-automatic shotgun and pistol,” Virginia Public Media reported.
Levine told the news outlet he called the police after he saw a protest event on Facebook. Levine said Howard posted his address on the event and read it in a Facebook video he posted. |

| Kind of a dumb stunt, but what the devil is a “military-style semi-automatic shotgun and pistol”?? Is that one of them thar shotguns that shoots over 100 cartridges a minute, with a 20 clip magazine and a black trigger? |

| QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
| Besides the advantage of being armed, which the Americans possess over the people of almost every other nation, the existence of subordinate governments, to which the people are attached, and by which the militia officers are appointed, forms a barrier against the enterprises of ambition, more insurmountable than any which a simple government of any form can admit of. Notwithstanding the military establishments in the several kingdoms of Europe, which are carried as far as the public resources will bear, the governments are afraid to trust the people with arms. — James Madison, The Federalist Papers, No. 46 |
