Unconstitutional Tyranny & Oppression Coming To Virginia

Published on November 9, 2019
Duration: 18:09

This video discusses proposed firearm legislation in Virginia following a Democrat majority takeover. The speaker details eight specific bills, including background checks on all sales, bans on 'assault weapons' (defined as firearms accepting magazines of 10+ rounds), high-capacity magazines (defined as 10+ rounds), bump stocks, and silencers. It also covers mandatory reporting of lost/stolen firearms, extreme risk protection orders (red flag laws), prohibitions for individuals with protective orders, enhanced penalties for child access to unsecured firearms, and enabling localities to enact stricter ordinances. The speaker argues these measures are unconstitutional, infringe on natural rights, and will turn law-abiding citizens into felons without impacting criminals. Three potential ways to stop the legislation are discussed: persuading moderate Democrats, legal challenges, and exercising Second Amendment rights.

Quick Summary

Virginia is facing proposed firearm legislation including universal background checks, bans on 'assault weapons' and high-capacity magazines (10+ rounds), mandatory reporting of lost/stolen firearms within 24 hours, and 'red flag' laws. The speaker argues these measures infringe on Second Amendment rights, could criminalize law-abiding citizens, and suggests contacting legislators, pursuing legal action, and engaging advocacy groups to oppose them.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the main proposed firearm restrictions in Virginia?

Virginia is considering legislation for universal background checks, bans on 'assault weapons' and high-capacity magazines (defined as 10+ rounds), mandatory reporting of lost/stolen firearms within 24 hours, and 'red flag' laws allowing temporary firearm seizure. Additionally, there are proposals to limit handgun purchases to one per month and enhance penalties for child access to unsecured firearms.

How does Virginia's proposed legislation define 'assault weapons' and 'high-capacity magazines'?

The proposed Virginia legislation defines 'assault weapons' as any firearm capable of accepting a magazine of 10 or more rounds. Similarly, 'high-capacity magazines' are defined as those holding 10 rounds or more, a definition the speaker argues is arbitrary and not reflective of standard capacities.

What are the potential consequences for law-abiding citizens under the proposed Virginia gun laws?

The speaker warns that these laws could turn law-abiding citizens into felons overnight. This includes those who own firearms that would be banned without a grandfather clause, those who fail to report stolen firearms within 24 hours while on vacation, or even parents whose responsible older children access a secured firearm for self-defense.

What are the suggested methods to oppose the new firearm legislation in Virginia?

To counter the proposed laws, citizens are advised to contact and persuade 'reasonable Democrats' in the legislature, pursue legal challenges through the court system, and actively engage with Second Amendment advocacy groups. The speaker also encourages non-compliance with any enacted laws deemed unconstitutional.
