| Terry McAuliffe Pledges Colorado-Like Gun Control If Elected |
| 2013-09-25 |
| [BREITBART] [BREITBART] Virginia gubernatorial candidate Terry McAuliffe's (D) website was updated Monday to show his commitment to bring Colorado-like gun control to the commonwealth. That probably won't fly well from Manassas down. Lots of votes from Manassas up... In the section titled "Investing in Virginia's Urban Centers," Dems are always "investing" in something or other. All their investments seem to lose money. TerryMcAuliffe.com now contains the heading, "Support Common Sense Gun Control Measures." Dems' ideas are always described as "common sense." Often they make no sense of any kind. Under that heading, it says McAuliffe "will support mainstream and majority supported gun control measures like universal background checks, limiting the size of magazines, and a return to the 1-gun-per-month rule." The limitation on magazine capacity is a Colorado-like gun control measure that will put law-abiding Virginians at a disadvantage the moment it is enacted. This is because criminals will not obey it but will keep their "high-capacity" magazines so they can outgun their victims. Universal background checks will mean an end to In addition, the universal background check mechanism will allow a McAuliffe governorship to control how many guns Virginians can or cannot buy each month--thus the pledge to "return to the 1-gun-per-month rule." Once similar gun control measures passed in Colorado, upset citizens successfully recalled two State Senators behind the legislation within months. |

| #4 He can completely write off all of southside and the southwest from Staunton down. The only votes west of Richmond will be from UVA area. This looks like a bet that he can win the state by taking Richmond to liberal belt around DC and the black-always-vote-Dem elsewhere in the state. |

| #2 Sign of desperation? As a general rule, Democrats have to lie about their feeling on gun control to get elected. |

| #1 Be interesting to watch and see if he flips like a fish in a boat. That's political suicide, he should know that. |
