Way to go Virginia !! :D :thumbsup:

Virginia lawmakers have handily approved a flurry of bills to make it easier to buy and carry guns.

About 20 gun-related bills passed Tuesday on the constitutional deadline for each chamber to pass its own legislative proposals. Now the bills must be approved by the opposite body.

Bills approved Tuesday would repeal Virginia's ban on buying more than one gun a month, allow guns to be taken into bars, emergency shelters and locked in cars, and make it easier to get a concealed handgun permit.

Many legislators say they can't remember a year in which more bills were introduced to relax the state's gun laws. They attribute it to having a Republican governor after two, four-year Democratic terms.

Opponents attribute it to the nearly $1 million the National Rifle Association spent on elections last year.

Good for you guys, here in Pa our legislators outside Philly and Pittsburgh are on the ball with gun rights but our Gov. is as liberal as they come thanks to those two cities, he'd never sign such bills but his term is almost up so we'll see!! :unsure: Plus looks like we're gonna finally kick out Ole Arlen Spector!! :dribble:
