I’ve been
watching the Pro Gun Rally in Virginia
and the days leading up to it and I have some observations that seem to be passing right by every person
who has an opinion and a stand on the issue.
First, The
Commonwealth of Virginia (fancy word that really means state) has a Governor,
state Senators and what appear to be a lower house that they refer to as delegates
very much like every state in the Union. There are 95 counties in Virginia, and
an equal number of representatives are selected by the voters to represent
their district. So far this isn’t rocket science.
There is a
governor, and his power is not that far removed from other states governors,
fill vacancy, sign legislation into law, meet dignitaries and so forth. The
current governor is an anti gunner, not too surprised about that, he made it
know before he was elected that he was on an anti gun crusade. For what it’s
worth, he is a Democrat, a Dr. and an Army veteran.
There is a
majority of Democrats controlling the state legislature, and they are predominately
anti gunners too. This too was well known prior to them being elected.
This brings us
to this past week’s activity and the days leading up to it.
I have heard
some of the people of Virginia are really upset over laws that have recently
been passed and signed by the Governor into law. Why are they surprised? They
voted in the people that did this to them. I was going to go and join in on the
protest but the more I thought about it, the more inclined I’m content to let
them stew in the juice of their own making.
First of all,
do touch my guns! Come for them and you will receive the bullets first. Given
in love of course! Second, do you even recognize why this happened? Think about
it for a minute, if this is such an important issue for Virginians, why were
they so content with allow these people to take over the state legislature? This
can’t be the thoughts of Virginia citizens; when of the 95 counties 93 of the
Sheriffs of these counties have declared their county to be 2nd
Amendment Sanctuary counties.
You are really
pissed about taking away your gun rights, yet YOU allowed it because the one
right that guarantees your OTHER rights was more than likely not exercised.
Have you
guessed it yet? Did you people vote? Did you research the candidates? Did you
vote? Did you know what they stood for? If you did, DID YOU VOTE!!!!!
If you didn’t,
keep your bitching down, I don’t want to hear it. There is no reason for you to
allow other people serve you up a crap sandwich and then not be happy about it.
Bad politicians make bad choices.
I don’t take
political polls, I still believe in the secret ballot. But I can assure you,
there has never been an election that I was eligible to participate in that I didn’t.
Since I turned 18, I have waited long hours to cast my vote; some people find
other things more pressing. I dare say that the freedom to declare your opinion
on the future is about as pressing as things can be. Virginia is a case study
in this.
Good luck
Virginia, keep your gun laws that the people who didn’t bother to vote, allowed
themselves to be placed under.
I...2nd that Amendment.
