The Virginia Senate passed a bill Wednesday that would eliminate the mandatory minimum sentence of six months in jail for people convicted of assaulting a law enforcement officer. The bill from Sen. Scott Surovell, D-Fairfax, passed on a party-line vote in the Democratic-controlled Senate after a lengthy debate, with Democrats arguing that police are improperly using the statute when officers aren't injured and Republicans saying that it's not the time to pass such a proposal when morale is down among police officers
AND
A Republican-sponsored bill to ban Seattle-style police-free zones failed Wednesday in a Virginia Senate committee after one Democrat called it "the most useless piece of legislation I've ever seen." Sen. Bill Stanley, R-Franklin, the legislation's sponsor, acknowledged the bill had little real-world effect because it included no penalties for local officials who allow police-free areas like Seattle's Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone, or CHOP.
AND
Mr. Floyd's blood test shows that he died of an overdose of a dangerous cocktail of drugs and there was NO evidence that the pressure on his neck caused any damage.
AND
Consider that if a county has no or greatly reduced law enforcement officers , TRUCKERS WILL NOT GO THERE .
If they need to go through any such county to get to your community, they will not bring food, medicine and all that
trucked into your community. .
CONTACT YOUR STATE SENATOR AND DELEGATE NOW AND TELL THEM NOT TO DEFUND AND OTHERWISE INHIBIT OUR LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICERS.
Thank you for your help,
