And this happens in cities all across our Republic.

From a thread at The High Road:

The Hampton City Council conducts a televised b*tch fest about Virginia's new statewide firearm preemption. The council decides that it does NOT want to repeal city gun ordinances that have been made unlawful under statewide preemption. One council member actually says "I don't think we want to follow [the] state statute." At one point the Mayor talks about the motion to repeal the city ordinances dying, and says "I'm not sure if we'll get in trouble or not" -- at this point you can hear laughter from fellow council members in the background.

Now, this thread, at The High Road, is a bitch fest about the local tyrants in Hampton, Virginia, but these crimes happen everywhere across our Republic, and people allow them to stand.

One council member of Hampton asks the City Attorney if they can be personally prosecuted if they disobey state law and keep their gun-banning ordinances on the books instead of removing them! When told, 'No, but the City could be civilly sued,' they shrugged.

So if you or I disregard the laws, do we get to shrug?

Another criminal, Randy Gilliam, a Hampton councilman, had the balls to state:

"There's not one of us who doesn't firmly believe in the Second Amendment right's to bare firearms." And then goes on to say: "But times have changed." (You will find this at the 11:37 mark of the video.)

Stoney (EDITED: not Shorty as I had first typed- thinking too fast) asked when we would be in the gravest extreme, Will said to be easy, and Kat got scared, and I say one thing you can do is start putting this stuff up (23MB in size: RIGHT CLICK, SAVE AS), on your blogs, just like the VCDL has done.

If they want a complete damned surveillance nation, I say give them one, starting with them that wrote the laws...
