Virginia – -(AmmoLand.com)- What is it about politicians who admit to wearing blackface? All three of them (Governor Ralph Northam, Attorney General Mark Herring, and Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau) are trying to divert attention from their past by pushing gun control.
I guess they are representative of the kind of people that the gun-control movement attracts.
RICHMOND, Va. (WFXR) – Virginia’s Attorney General Mark Herring is joining 21 other Attorneys General asking Congress to close a loophole on sales of ammunition.
They are pushing for Congress to pass “Jamie’s Law,” named after one of the students killed at last year’s mass shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglass High School in Parkland, Florida.
It would require current background check requirements for firearm sales to also apply to sales of ammunition.
Under the new law, individuals buying ammo would either have to be licensed to own a firearm or undergo a background check.

My first thought… whenever there is police involvement, red flag confiscation, or other in which a firearm threat is evident or simply present, the reports always include, ‘thousands of rounds of ammo’. Reported to raise fear and show ignorance that ‘thousands of rounds of ammo’ is in itself, a marker for ‘mass killing’. Therefore, all this ‘waste of time’ these elected officials are pursuing, doesn’t solve anything (as we already know). If these laws are enacted, instead of buying 20 or 50 round boxes (on sale), I’d be more likely to buy in bulk (save on background costs adding to… Read more »
I surprised we haven’t heard of Californians smuggling ammo already. I’m fairly certain Nevada, Arizona and Oregon are not subject to California ammo laws. Is Kommiefornistan going to setup Border Check Points on every highway, road and cowpath into the State and conduct illegal searches and seizures of ammo? I don’t know about the requirements to buy ammo in those 3 States, but I don’t have show ID to buy ammo where I live. At least, not the last time I bought any.
Insignificance and meaninglessness on display.
Infringements on the purchase and possession of ammo is no different than an infringement on gun ownership and 2A itself! IF a state outlaws the unrestricted acquisition and possession of ammo, IT IS THE DUTY OF ALL IN THAT STATE TO SMUGGLE AMMO IN AND BUY OR SELL IT IN AN UNDOCUMENTED MANNER! If federal politicians try to pull such a stunt, that would be a dagger into the heart of the 2nd Amendment itself and would require all who love liberty to begin a 2nd American Revolution!! VA politicians forget their state’s motto: SIC SEMPER TYRANNIS – THUS ALWAYS… Read more »
Getting this passed on ammunition would have INTENDED consequences. All ammunition would have to be locked up by retail outlets and there would have to be strict accountability for said retail ammo. How much do you think this would add to the price of ammo if they even decided to sell it? Obviously there could not be any “mail order” sales. And what about the possession of ammunition? You would be required to account for each round you have in your possession and how you obtained it. It would be much like England where finding an expended .22 LR casing… Read more »
Meanwhile, democrat Ralph Northam, Virginia Governor, is a PROVEN racist and infanticide supporter, BUT is still governor. Democrat Justin Fairfax, a PROVEN communist and sexual predator, is Virginia Lt. Governor and is STILL in office.
NO crime can make any democrat vote against another democrat. Democrats DEMAND a communist America. At the 2016 DNC convention, there were NO American flags on stage. BUT, there was a communist Chinese flag on stage.
