You think having Jones as AG would be a good thing? Really?

Absolutely. I’m totally mystified that people that don’t understand that Trump’s complete disregard for the Constitution is an imminent threat to our country. VA needs an AG that will stand up against Trump’s abuses. A republican toady as AG is not in VA’s interest.

You seem to think Jones can sue the federal government to rehire people. That's a complete waste of taxpayer money.

We want fewer gun deaths, not more.


It would take ideas that would actually reduce school shootings.



These would certainly help reduce gun violence:
Universal background checks
Red flag laws
Limits on the number of guns you can purchase in a month
Limits on magazine size
Limits on certain types of ammunition

Why do Republicans (including Miyares who voted against most of those) oppose common sense gun laws?



The post you are replying to was an answer to a post about school shootings. What would stop school shootings?


Totally stop school shootings? Remove all guns.

Lower the frequency and death toll?
Mandate gun storage
Age minimum to purchase
Universal background checks
Red flag laws
Limits on the number of guns you can purchase in a month
Limits on magazine size
Limits on certain types of ammunition
Better healthcare
More SEL in schools




How many lives do you estimate these would have saved at Sandy Hook, Virginia Tech, Parkland and Uvalde? For the record, limiting certain types of ammunition, gun storage mandates, universal background checks and magazine limits would likely never pass because enough Democrats would vote against it.

Does Miyares support Trump’s efforts to destroy the economy of our region? Yes. That makes him a nonstarter for me. I want an AG that will fight for the interests of Virginians, not Trump.

On one hand, you keep telling me how diverse and vibrant the Fairfax county economy is. On the other, Trump is destroying the county economy by firing some federal workers. Which is it?

I wish you understand how you sound. Your rational is comical. Trump could care less about VA so its irrelevant.

Nice try, but fail. Trump wants to control every state AG and governor possible. He doesn’t want anyone to stand in his way and knows that if Miyares is elected Miyares will help overturn election results in 2026 and 2028, issue legal opinions validating deployment of National Guard troops in NoVA, erode civil rights such as the ability of women to divorce and the ability of gays to marry, among others. Democrats must win at every level.

There really isn’t a connection between the government shutdown and the AGs race. The VA AG has zero to do with the shutdown. You’re really reaching here, and I understand why, but it isn’t logical.

Following Sandy Hook, Democrats and some Republicans supported a bipartisan gun control bill. It passed in the House and received 54 votes in the Senate, but it needed 60. Democrats can't do it alone because of the filibuster in the Senate.

It didn't pass because the vast majority of Rs didn't support it.

If Trump illegally RIFs people during the shutdown the VA AG could sue on behalf of their constituents.

Exactly.


Trump has no desire to infringe people’s right to divorce. Do you actually think that’s a possibility? Do you lose any sleep over these thoughts? How do you think Trump will turn election results? It is actually hardened democrat Marc Elias who brings all the lawsuits seeking to disenfranchise people.
As for gay marriage - that is something that may be at risk, but not because of Trump exactly, but because there is a case before SCOTUS that invites SCOTUS to walk back Obergefell.
