Virginia – -(Ammoland.com)- The Virginia Citizens Defense League Board of Directors, after careful consideration, has decided that the recent ruling dismissing the Virginia Citizens Defense League case against Katie Couric, et al, CANNOT STAND!
The lawsuit has far reaching implications for all Americans. If the media can be allowed to change a person’s words to suit the media’s own needs or beliefs, then a grievous blow will have been struck against the very core of the freedom that the United States stands for!
NO! We are going to fight this because too much is at stake.
Today, I have directed Virginia Citizens Defense League’s attorneys to move forward with the appeal to the U.S. 4th Circuit Court of Appeals, where it will be heard by a three-judge panel “de novo” (which means the merits of the case will be heard anew with no consideration of the judge’s ruling that recently dismissed the case).
Unfortunately fighting this kind of battle in court is not cheap, including the appeals process, for which we now have to budget. But the nature of the ruling is so dangerous to our liberty that Virginia Citizens Defense League must stay in the fight and prevail!
Virginia Citizens Defense League rarely asks for money other than your yearly $25 dues. But when we do, we make sure you understand why we are asking.

We all know who Katie is, what she does and what she believes. She has a history. With such a predictable outcome I cannot understand why the VCDL would even consider being participant in this documentary. As expected the entire documentary sends belittling subliminal messages about second amendment advocates. When you knowingly step into harms way why you not expect to get shot at? I appreciate the VCDL and got a whole lot of respect for Phillip, But participation was not a wise decision.
It’s my understanding that the judge was an Obama appointee. This would explain the dismissal.
It wasn’t just a long pause, it was a long pause that included none of their answers and a general manipulation of the editing, as well as lying to the plaintiffs to get them to agree to be interviewed. Let’s look at the questions first to the assembled group of 7 or 8 members of the group, Virginia Citizens Defense League (VCDL) . Couric and this company have made other very misleading videos including one called “Fed Up” about the food industry. They need to be taught a lesson. The film/video is called “Under the Gun” and it was pushing… Read more »
