Recently, one of Bloomberg's pet politicians, Ralph Northam, whom Bloomberg spent over a million dollars to get elected as Lt. Governor of Virginia, spelled out the plan during a "gun violence" symposium. The event turned out to be a gun control meeting discussing a strategy of trickery and deception to get firearm restrictions passed through legislatures by hiding it in bills dealing with mental health. My friend Philip Van Cleave, the President of the Virginia Citizens Defense League, was at the meeting and reported that Northam was very candid about the plan and the sneak attack strategies for bypassing committees and public comment, and preventing rights groups from being able to mount opposition until it’s too late. He particularly lauded the Connecticut and New York models where both states used "emergency" legislation to pass draconian bills with no hearings, no committee votes, and no public input. He also discussed strategies to gain support from rights leaders by quietly negotiating deals to keep a bill “clean” and leave out overt anti-rights provisions, while concealing the provisions that seriously threaten rights.

VCDL is watching really close. VA, though it is not TX, is also not NY. I have no doubt that they will try every trick in the book, the carpetbaggers that they are. However we do have a very active gun rights lobby here watching like a hawk. Y'all should see lobby day here. The halls of the legislature are filled to the brim with people, kids, and even service dogs wearing bright orange "Gun save Lives" stickers. It looks like hunting day at the legislature.

ONe does not take so much of bloombergs $$ without owing him something, but they have to get it through the legislature which is still red.

It's very telling......they know they don't have popular support so the only way they can get what they want is by fraud, lying, and theft. That's the modern liberal way --because they know what's best for everyone else.
