Lawmaker starts packing pistol to send message to potentially violent protesters
[FOX] A Virginia state senator this week began openly carrying a .38-caliber revolver strapped to her hip, calling it a "deterrent" against confrontational protesters and other potential threats.Sen. Amanda Chase, a Republican freshman legislator, said she became concerned for her safety Monday after a group of immigration activists confronted her colleague, state Sen. Richard H. Black, over his bill to ban sanctuary cities. The next day, Chase -- who claims she has long held a concealed carry permit -- was seen in the Virginia state Capitol in Richmond, visibly wearing a revolver. Posted by: Besoeker 2019-01-18 |
