I’m a Jersey girl headed to VCDL’s lobby day on Monday in Richmond. Why am I going?
I am going to support my fellow lawful, Constitutional gun owners, peaceably assemble, express my opinions and exercise freedom under the Second Amendment.
By now you are aware that Governor Northam has abused executive power by declaring a State of Emergency in order to create a gun free zone.
In order to create a gun free zone, cages are being made with metal fencing. Diagrams show only one entrance, and three additional exits, but all on the same side.
As an infringed citizen in New Jersey, our entire state is a supposed gun free zone. Only the criminals and government have guns in public.

The caged-in area is a gun free zone and we all know that gun free zones are defenseless killing zones. ---Theresa Inacker

When given the choice, every time without hesitation, I will choose to not be in a gun free zone. In New Jersey, I do not have a choice. But when I go to Virginia, I do have a choice. That’s why I’ll be shoulder to shoulder with my fellow armed citizens outside the gun free zone.
I have fond memories of traveling to Virginia with my late husband, Rich. A concealed carry permit holder from many states, he always carried where lawful. One of our funniest moments happened in a museum in Virginia. I was flagged by security for carrying a metal-tipped umbrella. I was ordered to remove it, check it or get out. My husband smiled broadly the whole time, we found great humor in the illusion. Security is an illusion.
It is a slippery slope when your government unilaterally carves out gun free zones and sets up cages. In New Jersey, we lost our rights incrementally over decades, rather than in a quick swoop as Virginia faces. Be warned, you must object and use all lawful avenues possible to stop this slope, lest you become as New Jersey.
The cage is a microcosm of the bigger problem. Tyranny is at the door. Fences, cages, oppression—it’s reminiscent of the scenes in Red Dawn, where folks are held behind wire fences and shot by cruel dictators. Do you think it couldn’t happen to us? I bet you didn’t see what’s happening in Virginia today either.
