1. ACTION ITEM: BATFE wants to change rules to register multiple long gun sales in U.S.
2. ACTION ITEM: Anti-gun Pennsylvania Attorney General stops recognition of Virginia nonresident permits and some other permits
3. Wrap-up of the Don Beyer protest in Alexandria - lots of honks and more
4. IMPORTANT: Anyone who didn't vote in the 8th Congressional District Republican Firehouse Primary CAN vote in the 8th District Democrat Primary
********************************************************************
1. ACTION ITEM: BATFE wants to change rules to register multiple long gun sales in U.S.
********************************************************************
The BATFE is proposing to amend regulations to require that all gun dealers in the U.S. report multiple long gun sales.
From the Federal Register:
"The purpose of this information collection is to require Federal Firearms Licensees to report multiple sales or other dispositions whenever the licensee sells or otherwise disposes of two or more rifles within any five consecutive business days with the following characteristics: (a) Semi automatic; (b) a caliber greater than .22; and (c) the ability to accept a detachable magazine."
BATFE is making commenting on this harder than us usual, but we have simplified it ;-)
You can comment by sending an email to:
Natisha Taylor at fipb-informationcollection@atf.gov
Suggested Subject: Reporting of multiple-rifle sales
Suggested message:
Dear Ms. Taylor,
I OPPOSE the proposed information collection on sales of multiple rifles by Federal Firearms Licensees.
The collection of this information will serve no practical purpose for the agency, except as an unlawful gun-registration scheme. It will waste the time and resources of gun dealers, while criminals will easily get around the information collection by using multiple dealers, multiple straw purchases, and purchases extended over time.
Sincerely,
********************************************************************
2. ACTION ITEM: Anti-gun Pennsylvania Attorney General stops recognition of Virginia nonresident permits and some other permits
********************************************************************
Pennsylvania's Attorney General, Kathleen Kane, a virulent anti-gun Democrat, severed all reciprocity and recognition with Utah. VCDL's counterparts in Pennsylvania say that her actions are unlawful and follow previous actions in changing reciprocity agreements with Florida and Arizona and VIRGINIA, as well as eliminating statutory recognition of Idaho. Further, Kane announced, through her office staff, that she is reviewing the reciprocity/recognition agreements in place with every other State. The fact that under Pennsylvania Law she completely lacks statutory authority to change or eliminate any of the above is not deterring her.
Lawlessness by the Executive branch seems to becoming commonplace lately.
If she continues down this path, we could lose ALL reciprocity with Pennsylvania. :-(
Let's send an email to the Governor of Pennsylvania and get full reciprocity restored to Virginia non-resident permits.
Email address: Governor@pa.gov
Suggested Subject:
Restore concealed handgun permit reciprocity with Virginia!
Suggested message:
Dear Governor Corbett:
I recently discovered that your Attorney General, Kathleen Kane, extra-legally has severed or modified concealed carry of firearms reciprocity/recognition agreements with four states thus far. Ms. Kane is playing politics with the safety of gun owners.
It's a shame, but I will not be visiting your state and I will avoid doing business with companies in your State as a result of these extra-legal actions of Ms. Kane. Instead I will look to Virginia, Kentucky, Indiana, and West Virginia for my vacation needs.
Sincerely,
********************************************************************
3. Wrap-up of the Don Beyer protest in Alexandria - lots of honks and more
********************************************************************
On Wednesday VCDL held a protest in front of Don Beyer's Volvo in Alexandria. VCDL was protesting Don Beyer's anti-gun flyers sent out in his bid to be elected in the 8th Congressional District and his failure to answer the VCDL Candidate Survey. Beyer wants to be a leader in pushing gun control. (Some photos are posted on the main page of VCDL.org.)
We had lots of drivers honking their horns and giving us a "thumbs up."
One person came over to me from Beyer Volvo and said "If I had know Beyer was anti-gun I would never have bought my car from him."
We had a couple antis being, well, antis. One was a woman, who while waiting to make a turn, rolled down her window, yelled "You're idiots!" and then rapidly rolled up her window so as not to hear any response. Like a kid calling you a name, putting their hands over their ears, and going "La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la" in a loud voice. No one responded to her childish namecalling.
The second was a man in a large pickup truck. He actually slammed on his brakes, almost causing a pile up behind him, just to yell something about "endangering the children." So much for any children that might have been in the cars behind him if he had caused a crash…
A few others gave us a one-fingured salute.
Two women stopped by to take some photos and video.
The antis were vastly out numbered by the positive response we got from motorists, several stopping to get more information about the group.
A Fairfax County police officer in an unmarked car pulled over across the street to observe us for about ten minutes and then drove off. (We were technically in Fairfax County and not Alexandria.) A few other Fairfax County patrol cars cruised by during the two-hours we were on site. There were no interactions with any of them (hats off to Fairfax PD).
********************************************************************
4. IMPORTANT: Anyone who didn't vote in the 8th Congressional District Republican Firehouse Primary CAN vote in the 8th District Democrat Primary
********************************************************************
Regardless of your party affiliation (Republican, Democrat, Independent, etc.), if you are an 8th Congressional District voter and you didn't vote the 8th Congressional District REPUBLICAN Firehouse Primary, then you CAN indeed vote in the 8th Congressional District DEMOCRAT Primary instead. To vote in the Democrat Primary, you simply go to your normal polling place and vote!
Turnout is expected to be very low in this primary that will determine the Democrat candidate in the general election later in the year!
The Candidates for the Democrat Primary are:
Patrick Hope, State Delegate
Lavern Chatman, former Virginia Urban League chief
Don Beyer, former Lt. Governor
Adam Ebbin, State Senator
William Euille, Mayor of Alexandria
Derek Hyra, Virginia Tech Professor
Mark Levine, Radio talk-show host
Satish Korpe, Bruce Shuttleworth and Charnielle Herring each dropped out of the race recently, but their names will remain alive because their departures came after ballots were printed, computers were programmed and absentee balloting began." (From insidenova.com: http://tinyurl.com/ojzwvf7 )
Here is an analysis of the Primary and the candidates:

The Primary election is being held on June 10th. Let's go, 8th District!
