All five members of the Chesterfield Board of Supervisors spoke publicly in support of gun rights enshrined in the U.S. and Virginia constitutions during their monthly business meeting Wednesday evening.
Unlike their colleagues in Henrico and Hanover counties, however, Chesterfield’s supervisors declined to introduce a resolution memorializing that stance at the final meeting of their four-year term – a meeting that saw hundreds of concerned citizens and protestors turn out to express pro-gun rights and pro-gun regulation viewpoints. |

TO REMEMBER |
| For, in principle, there is no difference between a law prohibiting the wearing of concealed arms, and a law forbidding the wearing such as are exposed; and if the former be unconstitutional, the latter must be so likewise. But it should not be forgotten, that it is not only a part of the right that is secured by the constitution; it is the right entire and complete, as it existed at the adoption of the constitution; and if any portion of that right be impaired, immaterial how small the part may be, and immaterial the order of time at which it be done, it is equally forbidden by the constitution. [Bliss vs. Commonwealth, 12 Ky. (2 Litt.) 90, at 92, and 93, 13 Am. Dec. 251 (1822) |
