Virginia Beach declares itself 'Second Amendment Constitutional City' 7 months after mass shooting | TheHill
Virginia Beach, Va. has declared itself a “Second Amendment Constitutional City” seven months after 12 people were killed and four others injured in a mass shooting.
The city council voted 6-4 Monday night in favor of taking on the symbolic message to encourage lawmakers not to pass gun reform laws during a meeting that attracted a crowd that spilled into the lobby and the outside lawn where gun rights activists screened the meeting on a projector, The Virginian-Pilot reported.
=============================================================================
Who needs gun reform legislation anyway? We'll just wrap the coffins of the dead in copies of the 2ndA.
VA Beach has a heavy military & retired military populace, which may help explain their common attitude about gun rights even after a mass killing.
