The official VCDL legal defense fund donation thread

Postby OakRidgeStars » Wed, 25 Apr 2012 18:52:05

If you haven't seen the VA-ALERT email from VCDL President Philip Van Cleave, you can read it here:

vcdl-alerts/alert-legal-attack-vcdl-fails-but-cost-t13047.html

Now that we know what we need to do, let's get started. Please use the donation link in the alert and give what you can to help cover the legal fees incurred by the VCDL.

Here's a direct link to the DONATE page.

VCDL WebPledge Legal Defense Fund Donations


Long story short - VCDL was sued by a fraudulent law firm, and although the case against VCDL was dismissed, they still amassed a $30,000 legal bill, and they need help trying to recoup some of those costs so that they can continue to fight the good fight for gun owners in Virginia,

So, please take a moment to click the link and send them 5 or 10 bucks at a minimum! :clap:

Donation made. Do you have more information on the lawsuit?

I don't think it's a good idea to put that online. WHO KNOWS who's checking? I love big-caliber and longe-range rifles and 1911 pistols, and I've got a few.

Next Firearm:
I can always use another 1911.

Yes - see the info and links within the VCDL Alert here:
vcdl-alerts/alert-legal-attack-vcdl-fails-but-cost-t13047.html

Long story short - VCDL copied a story from a newspaper website in Nevada and printed it in a VCDL alert. The newspaper sold the legal rights to the story to a law firm named RightHaven (see RightHaven on Google) whose sole purpose was to attempt to extort money from people and organizations under the guise of copyright infringement.

I know the Right Haven pricks,last I heard the judge basically threw all there cases out, and told them they owed everyone they sued, so they promptly went bankrupt. Nice group. :confused:
