Now that Bob McDonnell is the governor of Virginia the NRA wants something for their support. The Virginia Citizens Defense League wants three pro-con bills passed. First, a repeal of the ban on carrying concealed weapons in places that serve alcohol. Second, a repeal of a law that mandates only one gun purchase in a 30 day period. Third, make the application process for a permit to carry a concealed weapon easier by the following two changes. One, allow applications by mail, and two, "...elimate any fingerprinting requirements imposed by localities...". Are these people fecking nuts? Tell me how these "restrictions", if they can be even called that, infringe on the "constitutional rights" of gun owners?
