Nearly two years since Virginia repealed one-guna-month

**jonnyec** · December 8th, 2013, 09:19 PM

As February 2014 approaches, I'm left wondering: does anyone have any stats or reports on gun violence, or lack thereof, in Virginia since that state repealed the one-handgun-a-month in February 2012?
I'm curious because the anti-gunners' perpetual cry is that laws such as one-gun-a-month do so much to prevent gun violence.
Do we have any idea how the Virginia repeal has affected crime rates?

I don't have the stats but I'm quite sure it made no difference

You know it did not make a difference. If it did, the anti gun zealots would be screaming from the roof tops any negative effect.

obama is considering adding another rule called the pumpkin rule to give strength to the one gun/month law. in his new rule, like cinderella's carriage, firearms will turn to pumpkins after being used, ensuring that no gun can be used twice.

We will see what that POS McAuliffe will bring.

I bet Bloomdouche is dropping VA guns at NYC crime scenes (police shootings of civilians) like they're hot.

You mean that Virginia residents no longer have to buy one gun per month? Wow.

Seriously, this was so important and noteworthy that I did not hear about it at all. I figured that Virginians were still laboring under a policy that was promoted by a Comic Book.
