RICHMOND -- A gun-rights organization is planning to hold a "gun giveaway" next week inside a Fairfax County government building to protest New York Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg's efforts to crack down on illegal gun sales in Virginia.
On Thursday at the Mason District Government Center in Annandale, the Virginia Citizens Defense League will hold a drawing for a semiautomatic pistol, a hunting rifle and ammunition to raise money for two gun shops that Bloomberg has filed suit against. . . . State Sen. Jeannemarie Devolites Davis (R-Fairfax) said that some of the league members have threatened her in the past over her support for tougher gun laws. . . ."They are mean-spirited, and they won't listen or reason," Devolites Davis said. . . .Bloomberg has said the group is made up of "sick people."
Mike Stollenwork, a defense league member from the Alexandria section of Fairfax County, responded, "We are tenacious but polite. . . . We defend civil liberties."
