The Second Amendment Sanctuary movement is bigger than some people want to admit.

Even before they took office, the new Democratic majorities in the Virginia legislature announced sweeping new gun control measures.

Even before the lawmakers took office, Virginia towns and counties were proclaiming themselves to be Second Amendment Sanctuaries where the new laws would be ignored.

As it stands right now, nearly 90% of Virginia counties have declared their sanctuary status.
