Fears, Rhetoric Rise Ahead of Va. Gun Rally on MLK Day
Virginia Democrats� pledge to pass new state gun laws has sparked a grassroots pro-gun movement expected to draw thousands of activists to a rally this month amid fears the escalating rhetoric could spark violence.
The concern comes in the wake of Democrats taking control of Virginia�s state government last November � and pledging to pass the gun control laws.
That in turn has triggered a grassroots pro-gun movement, with supporters demanding lawmakers pass �second amendment sanctuary� resolutions that promise local governments won�t enforce state gun laws they see as unconstitutional.
None of the laws under consideration have been found unconstitutional, The Guardian reported.
�I really do think we may be on the brink of another war,� one speaker told a crowd of at least 800 people in Pulaski county, the Roanoke Times reported last month.
