From an informed man on the spot:
“…fantastic second amendment rally we had recently in VA. It was an amazing rally. Unfortunately it has not stopped the far left legislature. Once they finished with the second amendment they moved on to the first and are trying to pass legislation that would criminalize certain criticisms of the Governor, Attorney General and Lieutenant Governor. Then yesterday they voted to disenfranchise the voters of the entire state by passing a law that would mandate the states’ electors sent to the electoral college vote for the Presidential candidate that won the national popular vote. It gets worse. I won’t even go into the things they’re planning for our school children. With all that’s happening it looks like our only hope is to Vexit and join West Virginia. Nigel Farage is supporting the movement and I spoke with WV State Delegate Gary Howells office this morning. It looks like the proposal is working its way through the WV legislature (BTW it can be found on the WV State Assembly web page under Resolution HCR #8) . I hope we can pull this off. In the mean time we are forming Militias in the Sanctuary Counties under Article 1 Section 13 of the VA Constitution which I hope will prevent confiscation until we can Vexit. I think it was Mises who said, “No peoples should be held in a political association against their will”.
The West Virginia resolution (HCR #8) builds upon the 1863 resolution by which West Virginia carved itself out of Virginia. It adds the new series of reasons why a new “peaceful partition” is called for. If it passes, it places a referendum before West Virginia voters to accept the departing Virginians into the body politic of the State of West Virginia.
HOWEVER, the last “Whereas” says “Providing that the General Assembly of the Commonwealth of Virginia shall give its assent to any county or independent city presently part of the Commonwealth of Virginia having the opportunity and ability to do so.”
Will the Virginia Assembly agree to such a carve-out or secession?
