A Virginia Congress-Critter suggested that the governor could call up the National Guard to enforce gun control in counties where local officials have expressed reticence to carry out gun confiscation.

This should lay to rest once and for all the silly notion that gun control is about ending gun violence.

In fact, supporters of gun control are themselves dangerous and violent. They are willing to kill people to impose their will.

Rep. Donald McEachin said that counties that refuse to enforce any gun control measure passed by the state legislature should lose state funding.

“And ultimately, I’m not the governor, but the governor may have to nationalize the National Guard to enforce the law,” he said. “That’s his call, because I don’t know how serious these counties are and how severe the violations of law will be. But that’s obviously an option he has.”

There you have it. We might need a little bit of gun violence to stop gun violence.

Rep. Gerry Connolly also chimed in with the typical, “You’re obligated to follow the law,” mantra.

“The law is the law. If that becomes the law, you don’t have a choice, not if you’re a sworn officer of the law.”

These are the type of people who would have obediently thrown you in a cage for daring to protect a runaway slave in America the 1850s or who would have marched Jews straight into the gas chambers in Nazi Germany.

After all, the law is the law.

Gun control advocates try to claim the moral high ground by claiming they just want to end gun violence, but this is clearly a load of bovine scat. They are more than happy to authorize gun violence against peaceful people in order to take away their property because they are scared of certain types of guns.

The bottom line is that gun control requires the threat of gun violence.

Moral high ground my rear.
