The Easy Versus the Hard Path to Counter Gun Control
BY Herschel SmithWhile you know I support the sentiment not to ever surrender your weapons, it still seems to me that gun owners in Virginia are the Rip Van Winkle of the modern world.
They’ll sleep through an election in which the state votes in gun controllers and then turn out big for rallies against the plans of the gun controllers (when they told you what they were going to do).
It just makes no sense at all to me. Why not go vote in order to see if the second part is really necessary? That seems the easiest solution.

They DID vote, and they lost this time (they won last time with Younkin).
They were outvoted because northern Virginia has been flooded with left-wing carpetbaggers and Deep Staters ever since the Clinton administration (Terry McAuliffe, the DNC/Clinton flack who became governor, is from Syracuse, NY) and because the state has been flooded with hordes of nonwhite immigrants in the same time period.
Indeed the Assault Weapons Ban that Spanberger (born in New Jersey and worked for the CIA) will sign was sponsored by an immigrant from Bangladesh.
F–king BANGLADESH.
Grok that.
The gun-owning peckerwoods in Appalachia are now foreigners in their own country.

As of 2024, Virginia had half a million gun owners not even registered to vote.

Rhetorically-speaking, voting for pro-RTKBA candidates is low-hanging fruit. If you are too lazy or too apathetic to get off the couch for that, then the Democrats/Left/communists will win the election and pass gun control measures. Whatever else may be said about them, and a great deal can be – the Reds are nothing if not committed to their cause, well-organized, and well-funded.
Here’s another bit of unpleasant news to chew on: It isn’t just the Democrats. Many Republicans favor gun control, or are at least OK with it. Few are willing to say so for attribution, but that’s just because they don’t want to lose Bubba’s vote.
In other words, patriots who actually believe in the right to bear arms, don’t have nearly as many friends inside the political machine as many folks assume. Better support the few real allies we have when/where you can – before it is too late.

And millions and millions more won’t consent to that sort of blackmail. So where would you say that leaves humanity?

Required voter ID and no paper ballots will gut the DNC/CPUSA across the nation.
If it becomes the law of the land, the Democrat enthusiasm for illegal immigration will evaporate.
