***Virginia Lobby Day 1/20/20***POOFA Response Thread***

I would love to go but unfortunately I'm having a colonoscopy on the 21st, so my ass will be glued to a toilet on the 20th.

I do agree that this is a big battle for more than just Virginia so is there anything I can do to help without being there?

VA carry laws - maybe someone could copy and post in one of the first few threads to make it easy for those attending.
My interpretation (IANAL):

no LTCF = open carry only, transport in a box, no entry to the capitol.
PA LTCF (or reciprocal state) = Conceal or open carry, carry acceptable in vehicle (no duty to inform), entry to capitol permitted with LTCF (for now).

Keep in mind most of us need to transport in a locked case through the dingleberry state, now known as Marylandistan.

Also remember that MD has and continues to use LCTF records from other states to target firearms owners traveling through the state.

If you must pass through MD make 100% certain that everything you are bringing through the state would be legal in the state. Technically FOPA protects you but I would hate to have anyone jammed up because MDSP is of the “arrest first and let the courts figure it out” mindset.

Looks like they are expecting thousands of people:

My wife and I are still on the fence about attending. There is also a way to donate to pay for bus rides for others. This is off of the VCDL website.... also heard about it on the Bearing Arms podcast the other day.....

2. There is a cost to defending Liberty.
3. How to actually win. How to loose.
4. Evading potential traps and understanding the essence of UW.
5. Qu Bono... if things fall apart?

For about $112/ea we can AMTRAK from Philthytown to Richmond and back. Leaves Philthy around 0430, arrives Richmond around 0930, leaves Richmond around 1800 and into Philthy around 2330 if anyone wants to go for a ride.

Edit: Hmmm....looks like rally starts @0800.

Keep in mind there are gun laws involved when traveling on Amtrak.

Yeah, and it goes through DC and MD.

Now they're reporting that the NRA is holding a rally on 1/13/20. WTF?
