Judge Rules That Virginia Governor’s Gun Range Shut Down is Against the Law

https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2020/0 ... -shut-law/
A Virginia judge has ruled that Democrat governor Ralph Northam’s closure of indoor gun ranges due to the coronavirus violates gun right laws in the state.

Judge F. Patrick Yeatts of the 24th Judicial Circuit of Virginia ruled in favor of Lynchburg Range & Training, which challenged Northam’s shutdown order in the court.

The Washington Free Beacon reports that Judge Yeatts said the governor’s emergency powers are limited under Virginia law and cannot restrict the “otherwise lawful possession, carrying, transportation, sale, or transfer of firearms.”
Virginia is an interesting case study.
