A gun rights activist protested an assault weapons ban bill over the weekend by showing up at the house of the Virginia lawmaker who proposed it.
Del. Mark Levine, a Democrat from Alexandria, said Brandon Howard, head of the Right to Bear Arms Virginia group and Hopewell GOP chairman, showed up to his home with a “military-style semi-automatic shotgun and pistol,” Virginia Public Media reported.
Levine told the news outlet he called the police after he saw a protest event on Facebook. Levine said Howard posted his address on the event and read it in a Facebook video he posted. |

| Kind of a dumb stunt, but what the devil is a “military-style semi-automatic shotgun and pistol”?? Is that one of them thar shotguns that shoots over 100 cartridges a minute, with a 20 clip magazine and a black trigger? |

TO REMEMBER |
| "And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling in terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand? [...] The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt!" —Alexander Solzhenitsyn, The Gulag Archipelago (Chapter 1 "Arrest") |
