The Looney Left Report
The Democrat tyrants haven't even taken office yet in Virginia and already they are threatening to use the National Guard to enforce gun control laws they pass if the police won't.
They are clearly inviting a rebellion of the likes we haven't seen since the Civil War.
The Washington Examiner reported:
Democratic lawmakers on Capitol Hill say local police who do not enforce gun control measures likely to pass in Virginia should face prosecution and even threats of the National Guard.
After November's Virginia Legislature elections that led to Democrats taking control of both chambers, the gun control legislation proposed by some Democrats moved forward, including universal background checks, an “assault weapons” ban, and a red flag law.
Legal firearm owners in the state, however, joined with their sheriffs to form Second Amendment sanctuary counties, which declare the authorities in these municipalities uphold the Second Amendment in the face of any gun control measure passed by Richmond.
Over 75 counties in Virginia have so far adopted such Second Amendment sanctuary resolutions in the commonwealth, the latest being Spotsylvania County. The board of supervisors voted unanimously to approve a resolution declaring that county police will not enforce state-level gun laws that violate Second Amendment rights.To read more, go here.
Virginia Democratic officials, however, already say local law enforcement supporting these resolutions will face consequences if they do not carry out any law the state Legislature passes.
Also, Governor Northam addressed counties who declared as a Second Amendment Sanctuary County:
RICHMOND, Va. (WSET) -- More than 70 places in Virginia are becoming Second Amendment sanctuaries.
Governor Ralph Northam says there will be no retaliation for becoming one but says there could be consequences if laws aren't followed.
The decision to start declaring localities a 'Second Amendment Sanctuary' comes after Virginia Democrats took control of the General Assembly in the latest election.
Northam speaks out of both sides of his mouth. He says, "no retaliation" against sanctuary counties but then threatens "consequences" if they don't enforce gun control laws. Consequence means retaliation, fool!
