Yesterday, the Court of Common Pleas of Philadelphia County issued a preliminary injunction against the City of Philadelphia, halting the City’s enforcement of its recently enacted ordinances banning the making of homemade firearms and the use of 3D printers to make guns and gun parts. Gun Owners of America (GOA) sued the City in Pennsylvania state court last May, challenging the ordinances.
Sorry, I don't have a link to this yet. I expect at some point the website will post the entire text from the email. What's clear is the kleptocrat violence monopolists don't care how much tax plunder they flush down the legal toilet as long as they have enough voters who either believe they are "doing something" -- or know that they aren't but don't care because their bread is being buttered.

Richard Cullen to leave McGuireWoods to serve as counselor to Youngkin [More]
The same enemy inside the gates who said this?
The proposed restrictions have also received strong backing from Richard Cullen, the United States Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia, who says gunrunners consider Virginia a "handgun supermarket."
"They come into the state and go into a store and buy handguns by the dozens, with hardly a question asked," Mr. Cullen said. "Then they haul the guns north and sell them on the street for cash or drugs at profits of 300 and 400 percent. No other East Coast state has gun laws as lax as Virginia's laws -- not South Carolina, not Georgia, not Florida. Nobody. This has to stop."... "New laws aren't the answer to this problem," said S. Vance Wilkins Jr., the House minority leader who is a major opponent of restrictions on gun sales ... Mr. Cullen disagrees. "We've tried everything else," he said, "and now we've got to take extra steps."
And this?
U.S. Attorney Richard Cullen, a Republican who joined forces with Democrat Wilder to boost the idea, said passage of the bill "will have a substantial impact on gun trafficking out of Virginia."

No? Then seeing as how we can all agree it's "settled science," why does this only have to come up in divorce cases? Why can't the schools require such information and report noncompliances to Child Protective Services, so they can rescue the children and bring them into safe, gun-free sanctuaries?
