Virginia Dems Cave on Confiscation as 2A Sanctuaries Expand freebeacon.com/issues/virgini…
Democrats have abandoned their AR-15 confiscation push in Virginia after a grassroots effort turned localities into "Second Amendment sanctuaries." After last night, there are now 77 sanctuaries. Still, gun-rights groups say the fight is far from over. freebeacon.com/issues/virgini…
Democrats new proposal, which hasn't been released yet, would still ban AR-15s and many other guns but instead of a total ban on possession it would require registration of the already-owned guns it targets. Gun-rights groups say they'll fight that too. freebeacon.com/issues/virgini…
The @NRA told me Northam's tweaked gun ban threatens "hundreds of thousands of Virginians with felonies unless they submit to government control." freebeacon.com/issues/virgini… 
VCDL told me the gun ban compromise offered by Virginia Democrats isn't much of a compromise at all in their minds. "We are expected to give up something every time and we're not doing it anymore," president Philip Van Cleave told me. freebeacon.com/issues/virgini…
Van Cleave said the Democrats reversal on gun confiscation was expected but he thinks it coming before they've even been sworn in was a direct result of the 2A sanctuary movement. The grassroots opposition has already started having a real effect. freebeacon.com/issues/virgini…
