McDonnell signs repeal of one-gun-a-month law
One gun a month is not enough for the average person?...12 guns a year, why does anyone - other than criminals - need with all those guns?...what am i missing here?..
Quote:
The governor's action came days after he spoke by phone with some family members of the victims of the Virginia Tech shootings, who on Tuesday expressed disappointment with the governor's decision
"Governor McDonnell saw the wisdom of this law as a legislator. In our conversation with him on Saturday, he didn't offer a single rational explanation for getting rid of it," said Lori Haas, mother of Emily Haas, who was injured in the April 16, 2007, massacre, when student Seung-Hui Cho killed 32 students and teachers.
"When gun dealers can sell more guns without limits, they get the cold, hard cash and we get more dead bodies."

Quote:
Rep. James P. Moran, D-8th, on Tuesday noted that the fifth anniversary of the Tech shooting is approaching, and that this week three students died in a school shooting in Ohio.
"This senseless violence will only continue unabated unless there's a political price to pay for such reckless legislating," he said.
