I Love It! Virginia Gov may lose armed guards

Post by 66GTO »

In response to the Virginia Gov. McAuliffe and his AG unilaterally suspending concealed carry reciprocity, Virginia Sen. Bill Carrico said, “I have a budget amendment that I’m looking at to take away his executive protection unit. If he’s so afraid of guns, then I’m not going to surround him with armed state policemen.”

A bill has also been proposed in the Virginia legislature (controlled by Republicans) to reverse the executive order banning concealed carry reciprocity with 25 states.

Never happen. The GOP leadership won't have the backbone to support it.
Some people just need a sympathetic pat on the head.....with a hammer. Repeatedly.

And in the process eliminated the right of VA CCW holders to carry in probably the majority of those 25 states!
