Dems now threatening military action against those that resist:

"McEachin also noted that Democratic Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam could call the National Guard, if necessary.

“And ultimately, I'm not the governor, but the governor may have to nationalize the National Guard to enforce the law,” he said. “That's his call, because I don't know how serious these counties are and how severe the violations of law will be. But that's obviously an option he has.”

...because a "Kent State 2.0" would look good on his resume?

Good luck sending a bunch of good old boys from VA to confiscate guns from good old boys in VA.

The dims/libs/prog/socialist really aren't very smart. What does that say for the people that keep electing them?

So...the State of Virginia, under Democratic leadership, will stand up to and nullify Federal drug laws and pat themselves on the back for standing up for their beliefs...but localities within the State that stand up to and nullify laws restricting their Constitutional rights should suffer withheld funding and military intervention from that same State. Got it.

Northam is threatening to go after Sheriffs, too.

From the article:

"...Northam continued, 'If we have constitutional laws on the books and law enforcement officers are not enforcing those laws on the books, then there are going to be consequences...' "

Note that Northam pretends to think that he is proposing laws that will be Constitutional.

The statehouse needs to be sent the clear message that "THE WHOLE WORLD's WATCHING.".
This isn't some back-room meeting with Bloomberg and brandy snifters, anymore. Even if the governor's
dick is in Bloomie's back pocket, he has to turn and face the music, sometime.

Here's an idea: Send out a public message that since the Gov is instigating a nasty little shooting war, in the state,
that it may be safer for tourists to go to other destinations than Virginia, until this matter is peacably resolved, one way, or another.

Threatened with losing a major chunk of the state's tourism income will bite hime in the ass, and he'll be held to blame for it.
Start really breaking some eggs, in the Capitol Square, and the governor is going to start smelling the sulphur, sometime.

Virginia's Governor and Assembly critters need to be reminded of the oaths of Virginia State Trooper's and National Guard.

https://www.vsp.virginia.gov/Trooper_Pledge_text.shtm

.......
I shall obey the laws of the United States of America
and of the Commonwealth of Virginia,
and shall support and defend their constitutions
against all enemies whomsoever, foreign and domestic.
I shall always be loyal to and uphold
the honor of my organization, my State and my Country."

Note: this link is about military oath of service and then it then mentions the below.

The National Guard Oath of service is slightly different since Guard members also have to adhere to the Constitution of the state where they'll perform their duties.

I, (NAME), do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States and the State of (STATE NAME) against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; and that I will obey the orders of the President of the United States and the Governor of (STATE NAME) and the orders of the officers appointed over me, according to law and regulations. So help me God.



NOTICE that BOTH oaths contain the words "support and defend" as well as "against all enemies, foreign and domestic"
