Second Amendment “sanctuaries” now cover more than 90 percent of Virginia counties as movement spreads throughout the country

Democrats overreach when they are in power — that’s just what they do — and newly-empowered Virginia Democrats are no different.
The state already had a Democrat governor — Ralph “Coon Man” Northam — and Democrats managed to capture both chambers of the state legislature last November for the first time in years.
And what did they do? Almost immediately Democrats began pledging to pass restrictive new gun control laws that include provisions to empower local law enforcement with the authority to confiscate lawfully owned firearms that would suddenly become unlawful under new bans (think ‘assault weapons’).
Though Democrats have not formally taken control yet, they will in just a few short weeks. And there’s no indication yet that any one gun proposal is going to pass. But Virginians aren’t waiting around to see their Second Amendment rights shattered again by Left-wing anti-gun sycophants.
A “gun sanctuary” movement began in the state some weeks ago as local jurisdictions — county boards and city councils — passed ordinances declaring they would not enforce any new gun control laws (especially those requiring police to confiscate guns) they believe violated the spirit and the letter of the Second Amendment (which says that the ‘right to keep and bear firearms shall not be infringed,’ period).
That movement has now encompassed some 90 percent of the state’s counties and local jurisdictions, sending a giant middle finger to Richmond and to the Democrat majority that they can find a way to enforce new gun laws without their assistance.
“I did not think it would be that high of a number,” said sanctuary advocate and Culpeper County Sheriff Scott Jenkins, in an interview with the Washington Examiner.
“It’s an organic thing that just took off after Election Day. Elections have consequences, and this is the result. This has truly rocked the conservative, libertarian group’s core. It has really shook a lot of them awake. They are fully awake,” he added.
Clearly, Virginians aren’t going to just sit back and take it.
There are no ‘reasonable gun laws’ because all of them ‘infringe’ on ownership
