Notes from the Resistance...
HB 509, Delegate Marie March’s bill to repeal Virginia’s Red Flag law, has cleared the House and is now in the Senate. You need to contact your Senator to support HB 509. [More]
Is your senator worth contacting? Do you know of any others who are?

Virginia State Police spokesperson Corinne Geller declined to say how Campbell got the guns that have been recovered in the investigation of the fatal shootings at Bridgewater. But she told The Times-Dispatch that he obtained them legally, had them in his possession legally and that the weapons had not been reported stolen. Geller also said the guns were purchased legally in Virginia, but she would not say whether Campbell bought them or someone else did. A search of court records in Hanover and Rockingham counties turned up no evidence of anything that would have prevented Campbell from legally having a gun. [More]
So "background checks" are no guarantee?
I suppose "we" could always impose insane, totalitarian "Red Queen Laws," or, here's an idea: If credible, behavior/action-based evidence exists that a person poses a danger to himself and/or others, investigate it, obtain a warrant if probable cause exists, perform a lawful intervention, and then afford full due process equivalent to a jury trial, with the burden of proof on the state to prove its case beyond a reasonable doubt, with appropriate humane treatment and/or custodial measures if it does.
Of course, it's not perfect. Who or what is?
If you have a better idea, I'm listening and, if you really do, would support it.

You're incapable of being helped, you subversive, historically ignorant dolt.
And I don't mind that a bit. Useful idiots like you are the reason why the Republic may descend into hell, and if it does, some of us will benefit from merciless predators having a ready supply of softer-target cannibal food to give us more time to observe, plan, and fortify.

LIVING IN FEAR Bubba Wallace was urged to buy a GUN and his fiancé was terrified of intruders after NASCAR star found ‘noose’ in garage ... A noose-fashioned rope was found in his garage but was later ruled to be a pull-down rope for the garage door [More]
I haven't been this outraged since Trump supporters beat up Jussie Smollett.
And why would a grown man need to be "urged to buy a GUN"? Then again, it's not like Talladega Speedway would let him have one...

I have put forward a comprehensive plan to reduce gun crime that includes curbing the proliferation of “ghost” guns, cracking down on gun dealers who willfully violate the law, issuing model extreme risk protection order legislation for states, and promoting safe firearm storage, among other efforts ... And Congress must do much more — beginning with requiring background checks on all gun sales, banning assault weapons and high-capacity magazines, and eliminating immunity for gun manufacturers. [More]
But no one's talking about taking your guns.
Or about this, either...

See? There's or First Amendment violation when legislators can pressure private companies to do their censoring for them!
Just like the way they get around Second Amendment infringement proscriptions!
That they're doing a full-court press on all fronts before the midterms makes me wonder what they know that they're keeping from us. Or are they really that impulse control-challenged? Or both?

When they were booked in 2019 on a laundry list of allegations, prosecutors said a former sheriff’s deputy and his ex-school teacher wife worked hand-in-hand to commit a series of sex crimes that included abusing children. Three years later, they’ve turned on each other: The couple have divorced. And rather than face a jury herself, Cynthia Perkins has agreed to testify against her ex-husband, Dennis Perkins, at his impending trial. [More]

We have a bridge up the road built at great taxpayer expense and named for a girl killed in a similar crash. And that reminds me of putting fences on bridges so people don't jump from them, especially when there is no shortage of alternative launching pads around.
There's an analogy about the state of our society and all-controlling government "solutions" imposed on everyone in response to poor/deranged/evil individual choices in here somewhere.
