House Republicans on Thursday continued to scrap legislation aimed at regulating or restricting the rights of gun owners in Virginia.
After lengthy, tearful testimony from victims of domestic gun violence and passionate rebuttals by Second Amendment advocates, a subcommittee of the House Committee on Militia, Police and Public Safety defeated a proposal designed to protect victims of domestic abuse from gun violence by keeping guns out of the hands of violent offenders. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
"Secrecy is the keystone of all tyranny. Not force, but secrecy ... censorship. When any government, or any church, for that matter, undertakes to say to it's subjects, 'This you may not read, this you must not see, this you are forbidden to know,' the end result is tyranny and oppression, no matter how holy the motives. Mighty little force is needed to control a man whose mind has been hoodwinked; contrariwise, no amount of force can control a free man, a man whose mind is free. No, not the rack, not fission bombs, not anything. You cannot conquer a free man; the most you can do is kill him." --Robert A. Heinlein, "Revolt in 2100" (Pg. 68-69, Baen Books paperback edition, 1999 printing) |
