    It looks like VA has removed the CC reciprocity agreements with 25 states. One of the biggest issues is pointed toward those states that allow a citezin to conceal carry if they have recently had a DUI.

    I certainly am not a prude, but I think VA made the correct move.

    A DUI is a serious charge, if the DUI is not recent. Then this would be

    A different story, everyone deserves a break if enough time has

    Elapsed. We all have made dumb mistakes. I sure have. But I have

    Never drank, never tasted beer, honest!

    .08 equals 2 beers. Some states illegal some states not. And for that you lose your 2nd amendment right?

    Greta how many dui's have mass murderers had on average right before a killing. Please respond as I am curious how many people this law you like would have saved.

    Previously felonies kept you from having a gun. Greta the gun controller is in favor of misdemeanors being the standard?

    Sorry. But I can't answer your question,
    But everyone convinced me last season to use the autotrain instead of
    Driving to Florida by myself. After a long wait the train started...ten
    Minutes later there was a loud bang...a car load men (drunk). Drove on
    The tracks and were immediately killed. After 5 plus.hours we took off
    Again!
    I may be wrong. But I believe drinking and driving are bad I also think
    Drinking and shooting are equally wrong, and I have seen plenty of
    Both.

    Just my personal opinion, some probably can drink a six pack, but

    Some get goofy after two.

    Greta.....no one mentioned or took in to consideration drinking and shooting. The law has nothing to do with that. If you drank and drove .04-08 in some states you lose your gun rights.

    There is no mention about drinking and shooting. So were the guys armed that got ran over by the train? Were you afraid a drunk headless zombie would crawl out of the wreck with a gun? Drunk zombies handle guns quite well.

    Please explain.

    This is a ridiculous discussion, drunk or not. They were dead.

    No one mentioned guns.

    Drunk shooters are still an important matter, or maybe not to everyone.

    Enough.

    I know that Dusted Another doesn't know that my late beloved
    Husband was shot the same day that President Kennedy was.
    But that is why I am so against drinking and driving..our lives were
    Changed forever. Even with DUIs some people never change!

    Greta sorry you lost a love one for any reason.

    That said to say you dislike drinking and driving since you had a family member shot is baffling and without reason.

    In PA a DUI conviction requires you in many counties to relinquish your firearms during your probation period. You will not be allowed to purchase a firearm either during that period as you will be denied through the NICS system. After that, your rights are restored unless your acquire multiple subsequent DUI's.

    I guess i am baffling and a lot of other things, but I still believe:

    No drinking and driving and no drinking and shooting, no one can.

    Make me agree otherwise.

    I would like to hear your opinion if one of your dear family or friends

    Had one of these horrific experiences.

    I have seen several accidents on trap fields which changed others

    Who thought just like d.a thinks.

    Whatever I say is the truth.

    Wreck a car lose your car license. Commit a crime with a gun or a felony you lose the gun. Get run over by a train in a car you die and lose your license.

    Losing a loved one does not make those topics intersect.

    Everyone has their opinion. It depends on how and where you were raised and how life has played out for you.

    I may be over cautious about certain matters.

    Trapshooting has been a major imterest in my life, and with it is safety & moderation.

    I look at the Ohio CCW Reciprocity Map and I see we can now carry in the state of GA .

    Va Governor is just doing what Obama has told him to do. This CCW issue is to make us fight one and another. The state houses will not permit it to happen and will.
