obviously a law we can't afford to allow to pass.

When we figure out how to squash this let me know what needs to be done. If need be I'll rally the 10,000+ members of the VaGunTrader website to make some noise.

PM me if I can help.

Dandy Don Spewing again!

Wasn't Dandy Don McEachin one of the individuals that stated it would be a Wild West if guns were allowed in restaurants that sold alcohol?

Seems he never tires of looking foolish or being wrong.

Maybe he is shooting to beat Saslaw's record.

What better way to slip a gun control measure in under the radar.

What do you bet he's just being Obama's tool?

Will he be requiring all private used car sales to go through a car dealer? Is he going to propose legislation for background checks to buy a used car to make sure terrorists don't buy it?

Everybody knows cars kill more people than guns.

How did this communist get elected in the first place?

No, the bill, which would have prohibited ALL private sales, was "Passed by indefinitely", which means that it will receive no further action, and thus, is dead.

At least for this session...

Prohibiting private sales seems to be one of the anti-gunners' poster children, so they very well may try again next year. However for most of this year's losses, they will probably not try again until the year after. During "short sessions" (odd numbered years) each legislator is more strictly limited on the number of bills they may submit, and with no significant change in the make-up of the bodies, there should be no logical reason to think the outcome would be any different.

Case in point, several of the good "pro-gun" bills that were killed two years ago were not introduced last year, for these same reasons.
