I keep reading about local Republicans wanting safe spaces for guns? Evidently Lee County even passed that? What is the world coming to?

Yep. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second_Amendment_sanctuary

 

However, this article from Scientific American shows why more guns doesn't equal less crime.

Galax didn't adopt "sanctuary" status.  City Council unanimously signed a resolution not to support changes to the 2nd Amendment but felt declaring "sanctuary" status was nothing more than a symbolic gesture.  Should 2nd Amendment laws change, everyone will have to adapt, even those who have adopted "sanctuary" status, or risk losing all Federal and State funding.

But hey, it keeps us all occupied on something stupid while the powers-that-be control the world.

Wise County BoS just unanimously approved to become a 2nd Amendment Sanctuary. Personally, I disapprove.
