[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Long story, but I once had what I feared might be a loaded gun (wasn't sure if it was actually a gun or a toy replica) and I had to drive it out to VA from DC to have someone remove the "bullets" and determine whether it was real or not. It's super illegal to have an unlicensed gun in DC, much less a loaded one unsecured in your vehicle. The VA authorities explained that as soon as I crossed the state line marker on the Potomac River, everything would be perfectly legal if it turned out to be a real gun. (It was!) After that I knew there was no way I'd ever be interested in living in VA, especially with kids at home.

[b]I often wonder if the NOVA people have any idea what's legal in their crazy state. I wouldn't live anywhere that people could be packing heat while going for a walk in a city park.

Isn't there a lot more gun violence in DC than in VA?[/quote]
