Thank You Senator Ken Cuccinelli and Attorney General of Virginia Bob McDonnell

Virginians are fortunate to have Senator Ken Cuccinelli and Attorney General Bob McDonnell protecting our rights. Be sure and let them know their efforts are appreciated. Now, if only our Governor would stop his anti-Jesus religious discrimination.

Standing-Up for the Second Amendment!

Attorney General Bob McDonnell released an opinion in response to a request by State Senator Ken Cuccinelli (R-37) on whether or not the Virginia Department of Conservation and Recreation has the authority to regulate the open carrying of firearms in state parks.

In his official opinion, Attorney General McDonnell found that, “no specific statutory authority granting the Department the authority to prohibit the open carrying of firearms in state parks. A person’s right to carry a firearm openly is considered universal within the Commonwealth, subject to definite and limited restrictions upon certain locations and classifications of individuals.” Please click here to view the opinion.

Please contact Attorney General McDonnell and Senator Cuccinelli and thank them for their concern and advocacy for the Second Amendment rights of law-abiding firearm owners in the Commonwealth. Contact information can be found below.
