The Mayor's plan to disarm citizens at public events will have STRONG opposition from the Virginia Citizens Defense League, I promise that as the group's president.

And the Mayor's idea is even more stupid based on the fact that he actually told the police to stand down!

So a person caught in the middle of those violent groups would have been disarmed and the police wouldn't come to his or her aid since they were standing down. It is NOT the role of government to interfere with our God-given right to protect ourselves.

If the police hadn't had their hands tied and were simply allowed to do their job, the violence could have either been prevented or greatly reduced. Rather than admit his own foolishness with that stand down order, the Mayor wishes to hide that inconvenient fact by blaming and punishing Virginia's law abiding gun owners instead! We simply cannot allow that to happen.
